It keeps long term costs down, while insuring that elderly people are given the respect they deserve. It avoids unnecessary stress & fear, but it also allows for preventive health care. Regular workers, can find differences, that can be easily corrected before they become major health issues. It saves money, over time.

The truth is in how they perform, and judging by that, they have ZIP experience in actually caring for elderly people. They are uncaring, unfeeling, glorified house keepers, and nothing more.

And then there are the supplements, which aren't cheap, nor really expensive, but which brand? Are they made in China? Are they what they say? Given that there isn't any government oversight, how do we know they deliver what they promise? And why can't official sites give a full list of foods that are helpful, not just a summary list?

I mean words like Osteoporosis sound ominous, and it does tend to make you look them up too. Not that, that is of much comfort, because it isn't good news. Then when you factor in the other illnesses, or conditions, you find that treatment is no longer simply taking a pill or two. Now it becomes a struggle. Unfortunately that struggle has an edge, because to win, it would seem one must be rich.
