I don't want to go to a nursing home because I have no children to support the elderly. We can only find the same old people, live together according to some rules and regulations, take care of each other and enjoy their old age slowly.
Supporting the elderly and living together may be more comfortable than being with children. After all, it is a generation of old people with the same memories and similar living habits.
When you are old, you live with old people of the same age and living habits. Without children, they have to take care of each other and walk and chat together when they are sick.
In a sense, this is much better than supporting the elderly at home and going to a nursing home. In fact, it's just "holding a group to keep warm" and "holding a group to take care of".
Because my residence is relatively concentrated, I have three entertainment activities a week, either upgrading or playing mahjong. For two hours at a time, during the activity, everyone talked and laughed with witty remarks, and the atmosphere was harmonious and cheerful, and the mood was very pleasant. This kind of activity not only exercises the thinking ability of the elderly, but also kills time in happiness and enriches the life content of the elderly.
Holding a group to support the elderly has brought great spiritual comfort to everyone. Loneliness, fear, emptiness and boredom disappear, and everyone lives in endless joy.
Holding a group during the holidays and traveling together have increased the sense of security of the elderly, provided opportunities for mutual help, enhanced friendship and condensed everyone's team spirit. Adding to the festive atmosphere.
Benefits of holding a group to support the elderly
1. Meet the emotional needs of the elderly, provide some care services, reduce the cost of providing for the aged, and enhance the happiness of the elderly. What the elderly need is not only good food and shelter, but also a kind of care and affection.
2. Old people can make like-minded friends, help each other and solve some difficult problems in life by participating in mutual assistance. Life is full every day, I feel good, and my body is healthier than when I am alone.
3. When the team members are sick, others will accompany them to the hospital to prevent the risk of getting sick at night, which can greatly delay the time to go to the nursing home, thus saving a lot of money, and can afford better nursing home expenses when they are old. Even if you go to a nursing home and can't take care of yourself, someone will visit you to help you monitor the quality of service as a strong backup.
Some problems of holding a group to support the elderly are:
1. People's living habits are very different, which is easy to produce contradictions.
Some people are very concerned about taking advantage and losing money.
There are good and bad economic conditions, resulting in psychological imbalance. Some people like to show off their economic conditions, and those with poor conditions quit out of self-esteem.
Considering that the implementation of group investigation needs energy, failure will dampen people's enthusiasm. Therefore, although they are interested in supporting the elderly, many people cannot finally decide to take action.
There are several principles to follow when holding a group for the elderly.
1. Independent and free, keep your distance; Peace of mind, not comparing;
2. Be considerate and patient, seeking common ground while reserving differences;
As an organizer, you need to be considerate, explain the rules in advance, and coordinate the relationship between everyone.
China people's culture, good face and vanity are one of the factors that hinder the group. For example, if everyone goes to dinner together, some people are vying to pay the bill, but if they really let him treat them, they may be very unhappy. So don't make trouble for face. Economically, it is best to adopt AA system. What should be said and avoided should be said first. Don't be embarrassed to say it.
When someone asks you to do something together, you should try your best to cooperate with the group activities, but if you have your own plan, you should bravely refuse. From your point of view, when others reject you, you should not have any ideas, but be considerate of others.
