    What are the benefits of nursing homes?

    1. Nursing homes provide round-the-clock care.

    The biggest benefit of having seniors live in a nursing home is that the nursing staff at the nursing home can take care of them 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Even with the help of the web** or remotely controlled devices, it can be difficult for family members to do this, as this type of care means that there is no time for the family to take a break. In nursing homes, there are always professionally trained caregivers who are available to help the elderly when they need it.

    2. The nursing home will conduct regular physical examinations for the elderly.

    Physical health is very important for people, especially the elderly. Of course, in addition to paying attention to diet and exercise in daily life can help the elderly maintain good health, it is also important to have regular physical health check-ups for the elderly.

    When choosing a nursing home, a happy home is the best choice. Qianhai Life Happy Home Shenzhen Health Care Community is the first high-end health care institution located in the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area, the first green axis of Bao'an Center, and a pension institution integrating "elderly life care, cultural entertainment and health preservation, and health management". It has the service advantage of 24-hour all-weather care for the elderly, sits on the core of the "Qianhai Baozhong" business district, and enjoys the elderly care environment of healthy life in the city center, and the elderly care services with all-round care and management of clothing, food, housing, transportation and health.

    When people are old, it is good to live in a nursing home. Because people today do not live with their children like before, and now children do not want to live with old people. Therefore, in the future, more and more elderly people will live in nursing homes.

    This is a social progress, providing a convenient way for the elderly to care for the elderly.

    But there are also elderly people who are not used to living in nursing homes, and there is an old man near us, because the family conditions are not very good. The nursing home is also poor, because the money is less, the nursing home charges 500 yuan to 600 yuan per month, because the fee is less, so the environment, the quality of life, the place to live, is not so good, and it is four old people live in a room. In this way, there are sometimes contradictions, disputes, and even quarrels between the elderly and the elderly.

    As a result, some elderly people are reluctant to live in nursing homes.

    Therefore, if the conditions of the elderly are good, they should choose a higher nursing home and have their own independent house, so that life will be better, and it will be more casual to have their own house. But there are independent houses, and the fees are higher, some are more than 1,000 or more than 2,000 per month. This requires the elderly to have a higher income to be able to afford it, or the children need to pay more for the elderly.

    Therefore, if the family conditions are good, living in a nursing home is also the best choice, after all, you pay more money, in the nursing home, you have your own independent house, your life will be very smooth, and it will be very good, after all, the nursing home is all older people, and it will not be lonely there. Every day, I see those old people walking in the square, playing chess, playing mahjong, playing poker, the life of the old people is still very good, every day to eat, the waiter brings the meal. And the old man's clothes were buried, and the waiter washed them.

    Sometimes I check my body and measure my blood pressure. Therefore, as long as you have a good income, living in a nursing home is also the best choice. It's much better than living in a children's house and having conflicts over time.

    Because most of the elderly in the future will go to nursing homes. Young people nowadays are reluctant to live with the elderly. And the elderly nowadays do not want to live with their children, so as not to affect the family life of their children. It creates conflicts between the children's families.

    If you have the ability and energy to take care of the elderly, generally do not let the elderly into nursing homes, because nursing homes are destined not to be their own homes, and others support the elderly, and they don't know whether the elderly are attentive or not. There may be examples of elder abuse, but are there fewer examples of such examples to watch in the news? What the elderly need is actually a home and a companionship.

    If you have the ability, it is better to take care of your parents by yourself.

    Is it appropriate for the elderly to stay in a nursing home when they are old? Let's be honest. The people in the old homes near me are generally helpless, or people who can't take care of themselves, and they usually go to the nursing home when they have no choice.

    You really think that it is as beautiful as a nursing home on TV, but it is not what you think. Because nursing homes also want to make profits, you want to be an employee inside, all of them are part-time jobs. Who would treat or honor every elderly person in a nursing home like they would their parents, relatives and friends?

    Of course, I shouldn't say that, I also respect their profession, which is more difficult. From the guest's point of view, try to do it, the elderly are old and it is not suitable to live in a nursing home, consider it yourself.

    When the old man is old and chooses to go to a nursing home, there is no way to do it, right? If there is a way, he is not willing to go to a nursing home, because the current nursing institution in our country is not a very good environment and conditions, and the average elderly in all aspects do not like to go to a nursing home, and their children are not around, so where can they go to a nursing home? Who can take care of it?

    There is no way, you have to go to a nursing home.

This means that from the day after tomorrow, healthy elderly people under the age of 80 will not be allowed to live in public nursing homes.

    You have to look at the nature of the nursing home, generally as long as you retire, you can live in it, over 60 years old, but to put it bluntly, as long as you pay the money to live in a nursing home at the age of 50, just like a hotel with food and nursing.

    When it comes to the topic of old-age care, many people say that raising a child is not for him to take care of the elderly, and when he is old, he will go to a nursing home. So are all the older people now going to live in nursing homes? But the fact is that few people around them are willing to send their elderly parents to nursing homes, and under normal circumstances, the elderly live alone and their children visit occasionally, or the elderly live with their children is the most common state.

    In real life, I, like most people, are reluctant to send my parents to a nursing home, probably for two reasons:

    Worried that the elderly will not have a good time in the nursing home.

    Although everyone is preaching that the conditions of nursing homes will get better and better, after all, it is a place for the elderly to gather, and many people are still reluctant to send their parents to nursing homes because they are worried that the elderly will not be happy in nursing homes or nursing homes. This unhappiness can be physical or psychological: fear that the conditions in the nursing home are not good, and the elderly are being abused by caregivers; Or maybe the nursing home is full of old people after all, and there are too many people leaving, and it is easy to cause a certain mental burden to the elderly.

    At the same time, if you don't meet someone who can speak, the old man will be lonely and lonely in his heart.

    When my cousin was studying medicine, he was arranged in a relatively large hospital, which had an old cadre ward, and the conditions inside were very good, with TV, air conditioning and a separate toilet, as well as good medical conditions, and more professional nurses to take care of him. But because most of the children are abroad, the elderly are also very lonely.

    Therefore, some people are reluctant to send their parents to nursing homes, because they can't bear to let their parents live happily in nursing homes.

    Fear of being blamed by others and being said to be unfilial.

    One of the reasons why children are reluctant to send the elderly to nursing homes is the influence of traditional concepts, feeling that sending their parents to nursing homes is unfilial piety and will be poked in the backbone by others. Under the influence of traditional concepts, the concept of raising children to prevent old age is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, and it also makes children feel that their parents have raised themselves, and when their parents are old, they should take good care of their parents, otherwise they are unfilial and they will not be able to pass the inner hurdle.

    A neighbor in his hometown, the old couple has three sons and a daughter, but they are all working in other places, and the old people are not willing to live in big cities, and now the old people are old, several children always feel that it is unbearable to send the old people to the nursing home, and they will be ridiculed by relatives, so they simply raise funds to find a reliable nanny to help take care of the old couple, and assign a son who is closer to take care of the old man every once in a while.

    In real life, many people are still reluctant to send their parents to nursing homes, and considering many aspects, it is better to let the elderly stay in an environment that they are more familiar with.

    With the improvement of living standards, more and more Chinese families choose not to have children. It's a trend, but the question is, if we don't have children, how do we take care of ourselves in old age? Some people believe that living in a nursing home is a viable option.

    However, this question is not that simple, as nursing homes are not the best option for everyone.

    First of all, the living environment in a nursing home may not be suitable for everyone. Older people can have physical limitations, such as limited mobility, and need a particularly high-quality bed, bathroom, and comfortable environment. However, in many nursing homes, there may be inadequate facilities, staffing, and funding.

    This will lead to problems such as poor hygiene, inadequate diet, lack of recreational facilities, etc., and affect the quality of life of the elderly.

    Second, nursing homes are not affordable for everyone. The cost of quality aged care is very expensive, which is not a viable option for many people. In particular, low- and middle-income people may not be able to afford reasonable expenses and choose affordable services, which will lead to the chaos of the industry and affect the quality of service.

    Thirdly, nursing homes can cause damage to family social relationships. If we don't have children, we probably don't think too much about how our children care for us. Then, our relatives, friends, and communities may choose to let us go to a nursing home, which may isolate us from our loved ones and community, and lose our social vitality and emotional support for life.

    In Chinese culture, family relationships are highly valued, and this trend and situation is likely to worsen as more and more people choose to live alone or have disharmony in their marriages.

    Finally, nursing homes are not the only option to address the need for retirement. With the advancement of science and technology, there are also cutting-edge service providers, relevant policies and local help in many fields. Many middle-aged and elderly people can choose to participate in social groups, community organizations, and have some social participation, which can provide some life help and social needs to the elderly, so as to improve the existing pension service and inject new vitality into the life of the elderly.

    In conclusion, nursing home care is not a suitable choice for everyone, and it has certain risks and disadvantages. A better choice should be to establish a network and socialized mass pension service system, which can meet our pension needs while maintaining a certain degree of autonomy and interpersonal relationships and vitality, so that our old age life is no longer poor.

    In China, relying on nursing homes is not an ideal option. Although the service quality, management level and facilities of some nursing homes have been continuously improved, there are still many problems. Here are some of the factors that may influence nursing home selection:

    1.The quality of nursing homes varies. Due to the lack of supervision and uniform standards, the quality of some nursing homes varies greatly, and some of them have problems such as poor environmental hygiene, outdated equipment, and poor service quality.

    2.Costly. Some high-end nursing homes have higher management costs, and with age, physical demands increase, and other factors, it may continue to **.

    3.Loss of contact with family. In the nursing home, the elderly may face the dilemma of prolonged loneliness and loss of family ties, which will have a negative impact on the physical and mental health of the elderly.

    4.It is difficult to guarantee the quality of nursing home services. Due to problems in the management and service quality of nursing homes, the elderly are vulnerable to bad treatment such as bullying, abuse, neglect, and even accidents in nursing homes.

    Therefore, even if you do not have children, relying on nursing homes for the elderly is not a completely feasible solution. On the contrary, you can choose a pension service institution or facility that meets the requirements of safety, comfort and convenience by saving a certain pension and insurance in advance. At the same time, everyone should also pay attention to their physical health and spiritual satisfaction, and maintain good social relations with family and friends in order to better prepare for their old age.
