The elderly and their families face many challenges.
Sometimes due to illness, injury, hospitalization or medical event, the condition of an elderly person can get worse and may need partial or full assistance.
The death of the spouse or loneliness can also lead to searching for a supportive social framework.
Today, plenty of solutions can be found for an elderly person with health or mental conditions.
The solutions include partial or full care of the elderly in their home, or in a nursing home or sheltered housing. Sometimes the time is short and decisions should be taken in a professional measure. Wrong treatment or facility that is not suitable for the elderly can cause them and their family damage and grief.
