Nursing Home for Old People: who will pay the cost?

Nowadays, nursing homes have been a preference to live for most of old people in England. They assume that in this place the nursing will take them care well and also stay connected with other old British community. However, there must be cost that usually paid by government.

In my view, covering Britain people needs in their old days is appropriate policy. Since the people had been contributed in this country for a long period, it is certain that the government should give feedback such as old age guarantees. As a wealth nations, it is very possible for UK to administer this community.

Nevertheless, we can not directly give this privilege to all of people in Britain. Although the British government can assist, it may cause over demand and side impacts if we do not fund the proper person. Beside that, their sons, daughters, or relatives should held accountable first as the significant part of the old people to look after at. Not only that, the government should consider their financial status--whether they are poor, average income, or rich people who do not need extra fund from the government to live their old days. By regarding several circumstances, the government will allocate money wisely.

To conclude, funding Britain old people's live in nursing homes supposed to be government social responsibility. However, it should be focused on homeless and people who live alone. It is highly recommended to their children or relatives for caring them instead of sending them to nursing homes and depend on government funding.
