The relevance of the stated topic of this research is conditioned upon the numerous problems of providing medical care to elderly people who suffer from chronic diseases characteristic of various disability groups, accompanied by a complete or partial loss of the ability to self-care, as a result of which there is a steady trend towards an increase in mortality among people of these age groups. The purpose of this research is to study the features of constructing an algorithm for providing geriatric and gerontological care in the Republic of Kazakhstan, considering the international experience accumulated in this field. The basis of the methodological approach in this study is a combination of a systematic analysis of the accumulated international experience in the field of geriatric and gerontological care, with an analytical study of the actual possibilities of constructing an algorithm for providing assistance based on this international experience. The main results obtained in the course of this study are the definition of the main stages of the algorithm for providing geriatric and gerontological care, and the definition of the main age groups of patients, more than other categories in need of this kind of assistance, formulated on the basis of accumulated international experience in this area. The results of this research work, including the conclusions formulated on their basis, have significant practical significance for disabled elderly people in need of medical care, and for social and medical service workers whose direct professional responsibilities include providing medical care to elderly people.
