Abstract

Son yıllarda önemli oranda artış gösteren yaşlı nüfusun bakımına yönelik verilen hizmetlerden biri olan huzurevi ihtiyacının Türkiye ekonomisine olan maliyeti önem arz etmektedir. Yaşlı nüfusun tercihinin ağırlıklı olarak, düşük gelir düzeyine sahip yaşlıların ücretsiz bakıldığı Türkiye Cumhuriyeti Aile ve Sosyal Hizmetler Bakanlığına (ASHB) bağlı huzurevlerine yönelik olması nedeniyle kapasitelerinin dolu olduğu, özellikle söz konusu huzurevlerine olan ihtiyacın arttığı görülmektedir. Bu nedenle çalışmada 2016 yılı için huzurevlerindeki yaşlı nüfusun Türkiye’nin 26 alt bölgesi içerisinde (Türkiye İstatistik Kurumu’nun (TÜİK) ikinci düzey İstatistiki Bölge Birimleri (İBBS2) sınıflandırması temel alınmıştır) sınır komşusu olanlar (ortak sınırı paylaşan bölgeler) arasındaki mekansal bağımlılığının ve söz konusu bölgelerde yaşlı nüfusun huzurevi tercihlerine etki eden sosyoekonomik faktörlerin mekansal veri analiziyle belirlenmesi amaçlanmıştır. Huzurevlerindeki yaşlı nüfus sayıları ve bakıma ihtiyacı olan yaşlı nüfus sayısına yönelik bölgesel verilerin 2016 yılı sonrasında mevcut olmaması nedeniyle 2016 yılı için mekansal veri analizi yapılmıştır. Sınır komşuluğunun yaşlı nüfusun huzurevi tercihini pozitif yönde etkilediği sonucuna ulaşılmıştır. Analizde ekonomik faktörlerden 60 yaş ve üzeri nüfusun kullanılabilir geliri, ev sahibi olma oranı ve yaşlılık aylığının yaşlı nüfusun huzurevi tercihine etkisinin olmadığı görülmüştür. Bunun yanı sıra yaşlı nüfusun huzurevi tercihine bakıma ihtiyacı olan yaşlı sayısı ve çekirdek aile yapısının pozitif yönde, malvarlığına karşı işlenen suçların ise, negatif yönde etkisi olduğu belirlenmiştir.
