Summary/Abstract: Introduction: Health. One word that means a lot to a person. Healthy people do not even realize what rarity they have. They can move wherever they want, they can do various trips, sports activities, or culture. At that moment they rise up and go ... And hops! One day it may happen that from a person full of life becomes a person who is not able to help with everyday situations. He needs someone to replace his "second self". Core: Based on the life situations, we have decided to deal with a topic that was current in the past and it is current even today. We want to inform our public about providing one of the assistance forms for the person with disabilities, and personal assistance. In the introduction, we focus on the history of personal assistance to help people who have come through various health concerns. In the contribution we characterize the terms resulting from the legislation in force, such as personal assistance, a person with severe disabilities, a personal assistant, the scope of providing personal assistance but also providing a cash contribution.
