Being caring to others, to older people especially to our parents are one thing that Filipino excels at. It is our tradition; it is our free will to take good care of our parents once they get old. Unlikely with other countries that once their parents can’t take care of themselves they put them to a long-term care facility. Or even they prefer to stay in a care homes. I now lots of care homes not just around my area but also almost around the country. I work in a long-term care pharmacy that supplies medicines to a lot of nursing homes. You must pick a right long term care for your olds folks. You must know how they deal with the old people. Like in bettercaring.com you will find a lot of information you needed before you admit your parents in.
Bettercaring.com gives you a lot of thing that most of us need to know. There are two types of care homes residential care homes and nursing homes. Residential home is family style home to home like living in an elegant place. Provided with living accommodation, meals, help with personal care such as dressing, give their medication regularly, someone always on call at night and companionship. Residential care homes provide care during normal short illnesses but do not provide constant nursing care. Nursing homes are a long term care facility that provides 24 hours nursing that they are more on bedrest that can’t take care of themselves.
