What is senior living care

Population aging will bring the opportunity of rapid development of the elderly industry, such as the regions of the elderly center, nursing homes, community elderly service stations, elderly rehabilitation physiotherapy industry will usher in the rapid development of a good opportunity.

The arrival of population aging, resulting in a greater proportion of elderly people in the demographic structure of society, especially after the 80's one-child family, often a couple to support four elderly people, so in the age of population aging, the 80's and 70's after the pressure is the biggest, because after the 80's and 70's and even after the 90's in the early stages of the family planning period of the most stringent period, a lot of families are the only child, which means that a child is the only child.

The only child means that a child needs to support two elderly people, and after the two only children get married, they have to support more than four elderly people, such as both parents, grandparents, grandparents, grandparents, etc.

The only child means that a child needs to support two elderly people.

In fact, many one-child families have working parents who are employees of enterprises and institutions, and they have pensions even when they are old, so they can be economically self-supporting and don't need their children to give them financial support, but often, support for the elderly is not only a financial problem, but also the biggest problem is the care of the elderly. The first thing you need to do is to get a good deal of money to pay for the services you need, and then you'll have to pay for the services you need.

Young people, on the elderly to care, under the need to care for children, but also have to go to work, the time simply can not take care of, which gave rise to the rise of the elderly service industry, take our side of the Chongqing Municipality, basically, you can see, each community has a community nursing home, in addition to private homes, senior citizen homes, and some of the elderly rehabilitation centers, the elderly service institutions to solve the problem of the elderly people who have no one to take care of the elderly at home. The problem of elderly people who have no one at home to take care of them is difficult, but it also reveals some management problems.

Take the one I used to live next to a nursing home, where the elderly live about a hundred people, the elderly every day, in addition to eating is sleeping, occasionally in the courtyard of the nursing home activities in the activities of the dam, the gate is locked, the elderly are not free to come and go, such as going out of the need for family members to come to pick up, although these provisions are out of the responsibility for the safety of the old people, but many of them say that live in the inside is like a prison, totally Loss of personal freedom, so about this can not be a one-size-fits-all, for those who are in good mental health state of the elderly, the action is convenient, should reach an agreement with their families, so that they are free to enter and exit the right to fully respect the wishes of the elderly themselves, or by the nursing home often organized outings, which can also play a role in spreading boredom.

Direction of development of the pension industry after the aging of the population

A nursing home needs to be improved

My cousin's mother because of the age of no one to take care of the three daughters each have their own families are not willing to take care of her, the old man will be sent to a nursing home in the county.

My cousin's mother, who has three daughters, each with their own family, was willing to take care of her, so she was sent to a nursing home in the county, where the old man called me to say that he ate a big pot of rice in the nursing home, and that he couldn't even have a dish of pork with preserved vegetables, and that he stayed in a dormitory every day without a little privacy, and that he sometimes didn't feel safe.

After listening to the old man's account, I immediately bought some nutritious food and ordered a pickled pork and a few dishes that the old man likes to eat packaged to visit the old man in the nursing home, the old man was very happy to see me, and she talked to her for a while because she had to go to work and didn't do too much to stay.

After four months I heard my cousin's aunt say that her mother was not used to living in a nursing home and insisted on going home, saying that what they want to eat at home to do what they want to do, nothing can go out and take a walk, living in a nursing home with the same as a jail sentence, so they can only take the old man to go home, and then after less than three months, came the news of the old man's death.

The current nursing home, most of the use of a model, that is, once the elderly into the nursing home has become completely closed management, every day in order to save is the pot meal plus group home, the elderly live in such an environment, many times the loss of the warmth of the home, the loss of a sense of belonging, especially in the collective dormitory, there is no home that kind of privacy and protection of the sense of heart can be comfortable it.

So the first thing that needs to be improved in the nursing home are three points:

Each of the elderly need to live in a separate room, if it is a husband and wife can live in the same room, fully respecting the wishes of the elderly privacy needs.

In terms of diet, each elderly person can be equipped with a kitchen outside the room, the elderly can cook and fry their own independent, enjoy the feeling of home, or go to the nursing home cafeteria to eat, fully respecting the need for the elderly to be independent in terms of diet.

For the elderly with full civil and criminal capacity, senior care institutions should be signed with their exemption clause, that is to say, such old people are free to move freely, free to go out of the nursing home, the nursing home is not responsible for their safety after going out. Thus, the respect for the personal freedom of the elderly is realized.

Two, on the elderly and nursing home responsibilities and obligations

Many nursing homes and elderly care institutions, because of the elderly in the security considerations and management considerations, completely closed to the elderly implementation of the management, not in the personal freedom of the elderly and the need for privacy needs to meet the need to consider, so the elderly in the nursing home, the nursing home correctly, the nursing home, the nursing home, the elderly in the nursing home, the nursing home, the elderly in the nursing home, the elderly in the nursing home, the elderly in the nursing home. Nursing homes, nursing homes the correct approach is for different elderly people to sign a different elderly service agreement, for the elderly with full civil and criminal capacity should be treated differently, and signed with their exemption service provisions. For the body has a disease of the elderly, should be signed with the disease rescue waiver.

Three, how to balance the freedom of the elderly and security

The biggest drawback of the current elderly service organizations is to sacrifice the freedom of the elderly at the expense of the security of the elderly, the elderly into a captive mode, which is also contrary to the spirit of humane care, so the elderly service organizations, in the future development of elderly service organizations, it must be to maintain the elderly at home when the living habits and eating habits, not a group home with a potluck meal. Instead of the rough care model of group homes plus pot luck.

For the elderly who do not have full criminal and civil capacity, nursing homes should also organize regular outings, at least once a week to ensure that the suburbs.

The aging of the population has brought the opportunity for the elderly services industry to flourish, but now the elderly services need to be improved, simply rely on a building, a courtyard, a big iron door type of institutions to bring the elderly is not a happy old age, but the spirit of destruction and torture.
