Caring for an elderly parent or close relative is very difficult. You need to have enough funds to sustain the basic needs including medicines. Some of them do not have the financial means to survive on their own. Getting old can never be avoided and it is where all of us will be heading to.
You can send them to homes for the aged. You can also opt to pay for elder care. There are charitable foundations and organizations both public and private that can provide nursing care for them. It is hard to carry all the responsibilities especially if you have your own family already. You will need the help of organizations and public service or charitable foundations. Even if you want to do it on your own, there are financial constraints that will hinder you from providing them what they truly need.
They may have benefits and savings but it could not be enough. Hence, they will still need some financial support for their medical needs and daily living. They cannot work anymore so they do not have a daily income source. They are also impulsive and they cannot control their emotions at times making it difficult to find someone who will be patient enough to assist them everyday.
Others are left starving and homeless on the streets. These are the unfortunate ones whose family members do not care about what will happen to them. This is really sad because they are supposed to be the persons who will stay by their side until the very end.
This social issue has alarmed the general public, especially those who are at their prime age. The future has blunt uncertainties. They often worry what will happen to them after retirement, praying that they will get adequate benefits to get by until their last breath. Of course, they also want to relax and be free from any form of stress.
You cannot compromise your work by assisting your parents the whole time. You need to work for the future of your own family as well. This is really causing too much headache on many people. But somehow with love, families can get by just fine. There are just some financial drawbacks living with an elderly couple or one at home.
For those who can afford, they can hire a nursing assistant or caregiver to assist the activities of your elderly loved ones. It could cost you, however, because you have to pay them on a daily basis. In addition, you have to make sure that all the other necessities are paid for accordingly.
Government representatives and public servants must take note of this rising problem. The state is no longer capable of supporting the rising population of aging citizens. There might be a need to adjust and amend the retirement benefits so that these people will not be selling all their properties and be left with nothing.
Lucky for those who still have their children by their side, they will still enjoy the remaining years they have. Others are not so lucky as they get sicker each day without anyone to care for them. The government and private institutions need to work harder together selflessly and without any conflicts of interest. These people need special attention.
