Nowadays, people who care for the elderly are busy with their own life, so they do not have enough time to look after them. When old people are left alone by their children, in places where they may not have benefits for normal quality of life, they may start having serious physical and mental health problems.Therefore, I think special programs by the government should be created.
Firstly, when aged people live in houses without proper conditions, such as heating systems they start having health problems that may have expensive treatment, which can be unaffordable for someone. Due to it they may ask for a help from the youth, but not always receive it. In some occasions, young people send their parents to the elderly houses, which also may not have well-maintained facilities and also appropriate attitude from workers. Moreover, there are some problems for caregivers too. They can blame theirselves, because they are do not have enough time, because of the extra job they are doing so they can help with money at least.
One of the possible solutions is to create more special centers for the elderly where they can get medical help and communicate with other people. These places should have comfortable living environment, friendly workers, and activities that help old people stay healthy and happy. Another solution is to support families who take care of their elderly relatives. For example, the authorities can give them money or free medical services. It will make their life easier and help them spend more time with their parents or grandparents.
In conclusion, caring for elderly people is very important for our society. We should remember that they worked all their lives and now deserve attention and respect. If everyone – government, families, and communities – work together, we can make the life of old people better and happier
