OLD AGE HOMES

Old Age HomeA retirement home is sometimes called an old age home. It can also be said as a multi residence housing facility intended for senior citizens.• Relevance of old age homes in India• Migration of young couples from the rural

areas to cities in search of better employment opportunities to fend for themselves.

Old Age Home• Elders who have been in control of the

household for a long time are unwilling to give the responsibility to their children.

• Youngsters on their part are sometimes resentful of the attitude of their parents

• Many youngsters have moved to places far away from their native homes and in the recent past to many countries abroad. So even if they want to they cannot accommodate their parents in their own homes.

Old Age Home• Elders are sometimes too incapacitated or

unwell to look after themselves or get medical care especially in an emergency. All these have made the old age homes seem more relevant in the Indian context than ever before.

Types of Old Age Home
