Hi.......
Life is often about being taken care of in childhood, or being a caretaker for others. The lessons are sometimes about nurturing, love and compassion. Be sure the senior you are helping gets the best care available and understands their changing needs.
No one wants to live with, and take care of an old person who is ill and generally difficult deal with due to physical and emotional problems, that often require more care than they can provide. It is hard to see someone you love slip away. With the aid of a good home care provider, the burden is eased, yet some of these people leave a lot to be desired.
Not everyone is a caretaker. Some can care take children, but not the people with special needs and illnesses, at any age. Others have no problem caring for an older person with whom they feel a soul connection.
For some the journey is about taking care of others, family, friends, at work, eventually causing them to burn out and wonder, "Who is going to take care of me when I get old." Many never leave home, and wonder when their life will begin, not realizing they are here to act as parental caretakers.
As we known most people live longer and healthier lives as compared to the past generations. Each year advancements in science and technology, better health care combining western medicine with holistic healing, greater awareness of how to care for ourselves physically and emotionally, are all part of the process that increases the life expectancy of humans. The Internet is an important tool to that end.
Sometimes senior citizens are able to live normal lives and care for themselves, but as most people age, they need care takers at some point.
Lack of a caretaker is a serious problem for older people who have chronic conditions and limitations on their ability to care for themselves and their homes. Their problems are often compounded by increased medical costs due to poor health and the need for more supportive services.
Unfortunately, those who are most vulnerable are also most likely to live alone and to have limited incomes. Eighty percent of those living alone are women and nearly half of people aged 85 or older live alone. Older women, the very old, and minority elderly, have, on average, the lowest incomes among the older population which severely limits their ability to purchase the health care, goods, services, and housing options which could help them to remain independent. There are agencies that supply aid to these people.
Hope it will help u ... :)
