Should old people stay at home or be placed in nursing homes?
Parents have devoted all their lives and energy to their children and when
they are old, it is time for their children to repay their care and love.
Therefore,, it seems that it should be the children's responsibility to take
good care of their parents in their later years. However, I believe that a
better way of ensuring that aged parents lead a happy and healthy life is to
put them in nursing homes.
By living in nursing homes, old parents have more opportunities to
communicate with their peers. Keeping each other's company, they don't
feel lonely and can do a great deal of things together, such as morning
exercise, playing games, and exchanging memories and stories from their
past. On the other hand, if they live at home, they are often left alone when
their children and grandchildren are away working or studying.
Moreover, in such retirement homes, aging people can receive intensive
medical care from professional doctors. Besides, they can receive a proper
diet prepared by dieticians to meet their individual requirements. This is
especially good for those old people in poor health. Furthermore, they could
have regular medical check-ups so that any disease could be diagnosed in its
early stage. What is the most beneficial is that if any disease strikes them,
medical services are immediately available.
In fact, there are also benefits for children's work and study when nursing
homes take over the task of caring for the elderly. Children, free from care,
can devote themselves to work or study and achieve more success.
Since nursing homes benefit seniors and other family members so much, I
believe that old people should be sent to nursing homes.
