Integral assessment of the biopsychosocial status of older citizens and implementation of the systemic support components.

The article discusses the problems of determining the need of citizens of older age groups in complex medical, social and psychological assistance in the framework of the implementation of a personalized approach to the service provision. The concept of an integral assessment of the biopsychosocial status of older citizens has been introduced. Based on the ranking of subjects according to the degree of decrease in body functions due to ageing and the development of age-associated diseases, an algorithm for the implementation of the assessment has been proposed. The possibility of using this algorithm has been substantiated, and its features have been shown on the example of St. Petersburg as a model region, taking into account its technical, personnel and organizational potential. The requirements for the implementation of the systemic support components for the provision of comprehensive medical, social and psychological assistance to senior citizens in the process of organizational and technical support for an integrated assessment of their biopsychosocial status have been defined.
