Last Sunday we went to visit the eldely house. We set out early in the morning and brought them lots of warmness. We gave them many books and lots of fruit. We talked with them happily and told them lots of interesting stories. We helped them wash the clothes and clean the room. We taught them how to use computer. Both of us felt very happy. When we had to say goodbye to them, they really didn't want us to go. They thanked us a lot and we really moved by them. Although we did very little,it meant a lot to the old. So next time, if we had chance, we would come again.
Today my classmates and I went to the Home for the Elderly to have our deepest sympathies with the old by bus at 2'clock p.m..With pleasure,we helped the old clean their clothes and sweep the floor.We talked things happened in our young life,and heard them talk the beauty days in their past time. Even thought this work looked very hard,we felt happy. During the short 3 hours in the Home for the Elderly,we deeply realized that-- it's important to look after the old and respect them. How time flies, we had to say goodbye in the end,and promised to visit them next time.And then the same bus took us back.
Nowadays more and more elderly choose living in caring house. Some people are of the opinion that caring houses provide old people with a better environment than homes. Personally I agree with this opinion for the following reasons.
In the first instance, caring house provides the elderly with comparatively first-rate facilities and services, which the family is lacking in. Nowadays working couple need to face intense competition, they need to make more money to support their family. As a result, working couple have less time to care for old people especially when the elderly suffer from serious disease. On the contrary, when old people live in caring houses, nurses can attend their need and advanced facilities also provide a good treatment.
Secondly, in caring houses the older people can meet people of similar age group, taste and hobby who know more about the elderly. The young generation often has a different life style from old generation. Young people many feel other’s presence would upset. Besides, the older people need more serenity and rest while the young need more activities when the elderly choose living in caring house they need not worry about this problem.
Last but not least, elder people living in caring house can maintain harmony of family atmosphere. It is quite obvious that there is a generation gap between the older people and adult children. For example, old people fear change. They adhere to the traditional principle and customs while young people welcome new idea. They are always trying new things. It is inevitable that older people and adult children might have different opinions on something. These differences might result in the disagreement even discord.
From what has been discussed above, we may draw the conclusion that elderly people living in caring house is a good practice not only for adult children but also for older people. However, it does not mean children will give up the responsibility to care older people.
