#surveys #show #people #countries #life #expectancy #implications #individuals #society #effects
It is argued that individuals are living for longer times in many nations, and
this
 can lead to many implications for society and individuals.
This
 essay would argue that the possible effects of ageing are an
increase
 in the probability of getting sick and having more
time
 to be with the family. When
people
 get older, their immune system will start to reduce, and
this
 will cause a higher tendency to acquire diseases, so sometimes, these
people
 should spend lots of their
time
 at hospitals, to make sure that they are not having serious illnesses.
Also
, a growth in the number of elderly
people
 will mean an
increase
 in the demand for nurses specialized in older
people
 care, and
this
 will
increase
 job opportunities and even education.
For instance
, in the
last
 decades, many hospitals in the world started to look for more nurses that were specialized in taking care of older
people
.
People
 normally spend
time
 with their parents and family when they are children, and when they start to go to university they will leave their home and when they start to work, they have less
time
 to visit and be with their family.
Then
,
people
 living for longer
time
, are able to have more opportunities to see their family and spend more
time
 with them, since when they get older, they need care and love from others. A recent study concluded that when
people
 start getting old, is when they start to have more
time
 to be with their family. In conclusion, the increased life expectancy of individuals will
increase
 job opportunities and as well, allow
people
 to spend more
time
 with their families.
