However, the truth is that the children are busy with their career and they do not want anything bad happen to their parents when they are not around. Thus, they send their parents to caring centre. Therefore, the caring centre must complete with the conveniences so that the old folks can get great care.

The caring centre should enforce the regulations of old folk’s house. This can be done by requesting the family member to visit the old folks once a fortnight. If they are not able to do this, they might never get the contract. This is to ensure that they still have a close relationship even though they are not living together. Other than that, the caring centre should provide trained medical crews to take care of the old folk’s health. By doing this, we can make sure that the old folks are always in good health.

From the view of amenities, we can increase the number of wheelchairs, and build more slopes for the convenience usage of old folks. This will ease the old folks to move around.

They can know each other better and help each other, as we live we need partner. Good relationships make sure that we live happier. Moreover, they will have close friends to talk to when they face problems.

Other than that, we also plan to have an empty land inside the old folk’s house. This can be the place for the old folks to plant some vegetables and flowers. Excluding from filling their leisure time, they also can get some pocket money from the selling. We hope that this method can help them from feeling isolated to be in the old folk’s house.
