Abstract

Očekivanja od i planiranje budućnosti odraslih osoba s intelektualnim teškoćama važno je pitanje, kako za same osobe s intelektualnim teškoćama, tako i za njihove roditelje. Osobito je važno usmjeriti se na procjenjivanje potreba i perspektiva roditelja odraslih osoba s intelektualnim teškoćama o budućnosti njihove odrasle djece, kako bi se omogućila pravodobna i kontinuirana podrška te poboljšanje kvalitete života cijele obitelji. Cilj ovoga rada bio je dobiti uvid u perspektivu roditelja o budućnosti njihove odrasle djece s intelektualnim teškoćama. Željelo se utvrditi kakva su njihova očekivanja vezana uz mogućnosti stanovanja i svakodnevnog življenja, socijalnog i radnog uključivanja te poželjne vidove podrške u budućnosti. Istraživanje koje se provodilo bilo je kvalitativnog tipa te je u njemu sudjelovalo šest roditelja odraslih osoba s intelektualnim teškoćama. Kao metoda prikupljanja podataka korišten je polustrukturirani intervju, a metoda obrade podataka bila je tematska analiza. Unutar same tematske analize koristila se realistička metoda. Tematskom analizom dobivena su četiri tematska područja, od čega tri odgovaraju istraživačkim pitanjima, a jedno se otvorilo kao novo. Rezultati obrade podataka pokazali su da roditelji imaju različita očekivanja vezana uz mogućnosti budućeg stanovanja i svakodnevnog življenja te socijalnog i radnog uključivanja. Ono što se ponavlja kroz sve teme je očekivanje kontinuirane podrške za njihovu djecu, za njih same, ali i sustavnu podršku na nacionalnoj razini. Na temelju roditeljske perspektive, na kraju istraživanja opisane su opće preporuke i smjernice za unaprjeđenje podrške na ovom području te su navedena moguća ograničenja istraživanja.

It is especially important to identify the needs and perspectives of parents of adults with intellectual disabilities, in order to provide timely and continuous support to improve the quality of life of the whole family.

The aim of this study was to determine what parents' expectations regarding the possibilities of living arrangements and daily living, social and work inclusion, and the desired types of support in the future. The qualitative research was conducted with six parents of adults with intellectual disabilities. A semi-structured interview was used as a method of data collection, and the method of data processing was thematic analysis. Within the thematic analysis, the realist approach was used. Four thematic areas emerged from the thematic analysis, three of which correspond to the research questions and one new thematic area emerged. The results of the data processing showed that parents have different expectations related to the possibilities of future housing and daily living, as well as social and work inclusion. What runs through all themes is the expectation of continuous support for their children, for themselves, but also systematic support for people with disabilities at the national level. Based on the parents' perspective, general recommendations and guidelines for improving support in this area are described and possible limitations of the research are listed.
