Abstract: In the democratic countries with the prevailing social-oriented economy, the social assistance fulfills the basic function in the provision of the living standard of individuals, who are in a pressing social situation and they are not capable of handling that situation on its own and seek for an intervention from the part of the state. V Author thinks of the factors that influence the exercise of the right to benefit from the social welfare services through the legal principles. We pay our attention to the social welfare services provided to the senior citizens and present them via the example of Košice self-governing region, thus from the view of the territorial self-government. In present, it is expected that further development of social welfare services for senior citizens will continue particularly due to the aging population.
