In the period from 01.11.2014 to 01.05.2015, there were 33 diagnosed pneumoniae. Associated illnesses, in population older than 65 years, were present in 92.85% of patients and some of them had two or three comorbidities. CРB65 proved itself as a good parameter in assessment of the disease severity for both groups. Applied antibiotic therapy proved to be effectiv in 80% of patients. Тhere is no significant difference in pneumonia presentation with regards to gender and age. In data proccessing, descriptive statistics methods and no parameter X 2 test were used for statistical significance assessment. Conclusion: All patients with clear indications should be hospitalized, but large percentage of patients can be treated in outpatints` facilities, with good patient cooperation. Also vaccination, as an available resource, seems to have not received a significant place in our environment.
