Arrangements to be made by NRIs for elderly parents before leaving the country

As per the 2011 Census, elderly people contribute 8.48% to the total population of West Bengal. With an increase in the number of senior citizens, the number of old age homes has risen to the number of 164. 

A saddening fact, the reason behind the increase in the number of old age homes lies in the rise in the number of NRIs. Needless to say, it is enough heart-wracking for these NRIs to leave back their elderly members at home and travel miles away with worry. In need of outdoor work assistant for elderly or nursing care, one of the sustainable options available to them is to depend on old age homes which may not provide the services you want for your parents.

And all you have to do is a compromise, in an attempt to keep your parents safe and in companionship. 

Why compromise with their necessities when they never did with yours?

With no stones left unturned, these elderly people have given their all to make you who you are today. Supposedly, their life savings, retirement pension, etc. all have been spent to help you grow and be capable enough to secure employment abroad. 

Keeping them away from home in a different environment may end with tears in their eyes. Moreover, being distant from their children is already tough on the parts of the elderly parents, topping which is the pain of being separated from their home. 

Painful, isn’t it? We understand that being away from your home and elderly members are stressful, and leaving them alone with no help around can get nerve-wracking. At such times you can opt for certain organizations and institutions that offer services such as outdoor work assistant for elderly, nursing care,  hospitalization assistance, doctor home visits, etc.
