greenman asked:


For lolxlisa: Your answer is silly.
For Slightly Dark Francis: You should read more, or listen to your messiah. You are wrong.
For JM: Read the comment to Slightly Dark Francis. I see neither of you have any idea of what HR 3200 has in it. What are your qualifications to speak on the subject?

Answer Czar asked:


The plain basic fact is, if this health care bill is past, there is only so much money to go around. It’s simple math folks, why Obamabots can’t you understand that?

medical care for the elderly (anyone who is retired or on disability)should it be curbed?

mad max asked:


I know they paid into the insurance through their taxes - but there are too many war babies. Perhaps limiting their care and just supply them pain killers is the answer.

Elderly Care: Caring for Seniors, Aged Citizens, Old People

Elderly Care
Eren asked:


CARING FOR THE AGED, OLD PEOPLE - COPING WITH THE ELDERLY, SENIOR CITIZENS

(Based on author’s site www.geocities.com/ldrly)

Caring for the elderly at is hard for all because, in taking care of old people, senior citizens and carers of the aged are not understood by families of aged persons.

Taking care of the elderly, caring for old people, especially if caring for the aged personally, often needlessly causes hurt to persons caring for old people or to the elderly or both, to carers of aged persons and to old persons -more so where the elderly are not ill old people but healthy senior citizens, and where loved ones care for the aged. But hurt in old age, upset to the carer of an old person can be avoided. Here is how to care for the elderly.

In coping with old people issues, avoidance of hurt to the elderly and upset to those taking care of the aged, begin with appreciating the aged and those caring for the elderly.

The care of the elderly in extreme cases of old age not common to old people aside, the old age of senior citizens need not be a problem in caring for aged persons -neither to aged persons nor to those caring on behalf of the families of the aged, if the following tips on how to take care of the elderly are kept in mind by persons caring for the aged, and by the families of old people and of those caring for the elderly.

In caring for the elderly the first problem is not the elderly, but unawareness of the persons taking care of the elderly of the appreciation by those for whom also old people are cared for -that the family of the old person do appreciate the regular attendance to that old person ~more so if the care of the elderly is by one only of the members of the family of the aged; the occasional ‘How are you coping?’ by the relatives of the elderly is morale boosting to those caring for aged persons.

Other problems in caring for the elderly which both the old people and carers for the aged have fall into three categories, below, arising from assuming that old age means physically and/or mentally weak, which old age does not make the elderly and most old people enjoy good health, many of the aged continuing to work after they have become senior citizens.

The status enjoyed by old persons before their old age is important to old people; the elderly must not be treated as children: the aged expect their privacy to be respected, also not to be excluded from family discussions -it hurts the dignity of old people needlessly to be spoken to loudly or slowly or be ignored and causes resentment by the elderly.

Aged persons do not cease to like activity; old fashioned habits and interests of the aged must not be made light of: many old people are young in heart and outright rejection of help offered by the aged, limiting old age pass-times, objecting to elderly friends, annoy old people -older people, seniors, don’t like it.

Crises in old age affecting also those caring for old people and the families of the aged mostly is due to inadequate consultation with the elderly: if old persons are to be subjected to change of environment or arrangements, consult and prepare them -taking it for granted that the elderly will adjust causes confrontation.

Treat old people normally and thank those who have undertaken the taking care of the elderly.

How does elitism (the elite theory) affect health care for the elderly?

Caring for the Elderly
dreamcometrue51908 asked:


Just a quick question…

How does elitism (the elite theory) affect health care for the elderly?

So far, I’ve basically said that the elderly won’t get any health care because the elites are too busy counting their money to care for anyone in the middle and lower classes.

But if someone could elaborate a lot on that, it would be great. I’m kind of outta ideas now. Please be specific in answers.

It’s for my AP US government class.

Help is greatly appreciated. Thanks!

what are your opinions if someone state that caring for the elderly is a burden?

Caring for the Elderly
brownie26 asked:


many people had stated that they cant care for the elderly 24-7.therefore they are nothing but a burden to the future generations.not only that ,the retirement homes and the old folks are able to provide better services in terms of medical and nutritional food.for example,when your parent is having a heart attack,it wouldnt be treated as fast as it does in an old folk coz we surely are unable to reach the hospital in time with these days traffic…it would really be nice if i can get opinions from youll..thank you..
