people are sending their elders to nursing homes. What are the advantages and disadvantages of this

#people #elders #homes
In current times, the general population send the elders to nursing homes.
This
 practice does have some advantages and disadvantages and in
this
 essay, I will discuss both of them.
Firstly
 in the case of the upsides, with the increasing age, there is an increased amount of help that the person requires and it demands the effort on the younger generation to provide that hand and as nowadays, the public is busy building their life so it saps the
time
 out of their hand.
For example
, in case of an individual who is starting early in his/her life has limited
time
 availability as he/she wants to dedicate the maximum of it to their career and make a great dent in the universe which can lead to the devoid of their presence and
this
, in turn, can lead to the lack of that support, so shifting them to the nursing home can provide them with all the additional care
that is
 required by them and
also
 adding to that, it can
also
 provide them with the company of other senior citizens. On the other side, there are
also
 downsides to it which can include the breakage of the moral support of a particular human as they can form biases in their brain and think of themselves as a burden and sometimes it can
also
 lead to the feeling of hopelessness which if not addressed at the right
time
 can lead to the emotional turmoil of the oldies.
For example
, we as humans thrive on the trust and bondage of our loved ones and we expect reciprocity of the same from the other when we need them in
time
and
Correct word choice
apply
show examples
if it is not reverted back
then
 it can lead to the buildup of anger within and it can reflect in the outer world as irritation and frustration of the general life which can be clearly viewed in some people of older age. In conclusion, there are both sides of
this
 discussion which I clearly represented and in terms of the decision that whether they should be sent to those caretaking homes,
then
 a multi-dimensional thinking approach should be applied before that.
