Reasons why retirement homes are becoming imperative today

Most of us wish to be there for our family members when they age and hope for someone to be there for us in our ageing days. However, sometimes being there for the elderly becomes impossible not because we deny our responsibility towards them in their later days, but because several, factors create a barrier for us to do so. 

When we have to leave our ageing family members on their own while we go away to pursue our careers or education, we are frequently troubled with the thought of their well-being. That makes it difficult for us to pursue our careers - vocations essential for creating a safe future for our family. Under such conditions, a retirement home can serve as an ideal solution for both.


In the article below, let us consider the reasons why home for senior citizens is becoming imperative today:


  • A child staying away for work and education: Residing outside of India or in another state, away from parents, either for work or education, is essential for building a better future for themselves and their loved ones in this era. However, while migrating from their hometown for work or education, children have to leave their ageing parents alone with no assistance. A living home for seniors offers the elderly the opportunity to live as a community giving the sense of an extended family.




  • Senior citizens are an easy target: Often, we come across news within the country of senior citizens being robbed or the easy target of other sorts of crimes. Retirement homes practice the protocol of regular screening of visitors and surroundings with surveillance gadgets such as CCTV and video intercom and more to ensure the safety and security of the elderly residing within the premises. Hence, senior citizen's homes are much safer than otherwise.


  • To find like-minded people: We are social beings. We have the innate need to communicate. However, interactions with likeminded people become scarce as we retire from our jobs and fail to meet our colleagues at regular interval. Retirement homes build a bridge for the elderly by allowing them to meet people of their age. Being with people of their age allows the ageing people to mingle comfortably and live an active social life.





  • Stress-free living: With age, continuing with our daily chores can be taxing both mentally and physically. At home for senior citizens, these routine chores are taking care of by the association. That further allows the ageing individuals to live a stress-free after retirement life.


  • Companionship: Living in a modern world comes with abounding educational/work pressure and other formal commitments. It often leads to the inability of the children to give quality time to their parents, resulting in the abandonment, neglect and impending isolation of their ageing folks. Retirement homes fill this void in the lives of these elderly individuals by offering them the companionship and caring environment they need to live a contented and comfortable life ahead.


  • Medical attention: With age, people become susceptible to impending medical problems and require constant care and regular medical attention. Providing the same to your ageing parents can be difficult when you have to reside away from home for work or education purposes. Retirement homes can be of great help as they are better equipped to handle emergencies and provide constant medical assistance.


Hence are the most notable and reasonable points that conclude and assert the imperativeness of retirement homes in today's world.

Arun Nursery School: Extra-Curricular Activities and their impact on children

  In India, there is a very common orthodox belief that every child needs to perform well in academics to build a successful career. There are very few parents who let their child pursue a career in sports and arts. Now, if one scrutinizes this condition, he will find that the core reason behind this practice lies with the schools. The education pattern followed in schools puts so much pressure on children for excelling in academics that the impact which extra-curricular activities may have on a child’s life is not even realised. This is why there are many talented dancers, singers, actors, sportsperson, etc. who get lost in the crowd of that competition. Mrs. Sumitra Mitter of Arun Nursery School (ANS) realises and recognises the importance of extra-curricular activities and the vital role they play in moulding a better future for her students.

How Mrs Sumitra Mitter has ensured that children are getting all-round education

The basic idea that people have about elementary education is just limited to academics. As long as a child can identify alphabets and numbers, parents are satisfied with it. This creates a problem later in primary school when eventually most of the children fail to cope up with the school curriculum. This happens because their roots are weakened in the initial years when the child is at the peak of his growing years. After all, if the roots are weak, no matter how green the tree is, it does fall someday. Principal Sumitra Mitter of Arun Nursery School (ANS) tries to work toward laying a strong foundation for a child’s career by providing an all-round education in her institute. Children are too young to understand the significance and importance of going to the right school. If the atmosphere is not warm and comfortable, their enthusiasm and curiosity will get curbed under pressure. The competition has highly increased over the past two decades and every child feels left behind. A...
