The advancing ageing of Polish society along with transformations in the contemporary model of family cause the rise of demand for services supporting functioning of elderly people in their home environment. As part of the project “Improving Access to Community-Based Services for Older People Living at Home” there were organized two focus groups in order to examine the perception of health and social services directed to older persons by senior citizens and service-providers. The main reasons for using community-based services, the most common sources of information on services as well as the barriers and factors facilitating the using of the community-based services were identified.
