In the past, one could support their family without a college education and still have the means to live comfortably. However that is not the case anymore. In today’s society all of the high paying jobs require and demand college experience. These jobs that are at the high paying end of the spectrum have changed their basic requirements because of technology rapidly increasing day by day, getting more complicated and difficult-which makes them want to make sure that their employees are properly trained. This however, does not sit well with people who are becoming unemployed or who have seniority at their current jobs.
For example, some people cannot afford to go to the gym or afford transport to quit smoking groups or buy nicotine replacement therapy. People may also work long hours so do not have time to exercise. People on a good income or more able to take up healthy behaviours because they can afford to go to the gym and buy healthier foods (healthier food tends to be more expensive than junk food).
Encouraging older Americans to utilize their resources needs to reach them on a more intimate level than the general services that are being offered. Perhaps incentive and more services for caregivers may also allow older Americans to be exposed to existing services. A well-written policy does not always translate to well-funded, well-managed or well-executed programs. It seems that there have been adequate systems in place within the OAA they are just grossly underfunded. People are living longer and the population of these elders is increasing and cannot be properly executed with a diminishing budget.
Alot of studies into health inequalities rely on morality, death, and morbidity, illness, data. The results are usually presented in rates as this is less crude and it creates a more meaningful study. Poorer areas will only have small corner shops as large supermarkets won't build in areas that won't be able to afford the upkeep of the shop. This will mean there are more little corner shops with higher prices just because the shopkeepers know that they can charge higher as the community prefer not to travel to get their weekly shopping. The conditions people live in contribute to the health of a person.
It is clear that many of them work not because they are hard working by nature but because they have bills that are more than what they make, so many are bound to do more than two jobs just to meet up, and this will eventually goes to statistics as hard working but it is not, it is working to make ends meet. Also when it comes to limited/extended family I believe he is inaccurate because Americans now value extended family more than before, where family was
If the funds have been set for that purpose, family members can divide the budget by doing the tasks themselves rather than hiring someone. When having the elder patient at the home makes it a lot easier to help with that person better or a daily basis and watch his action. It is more convenient than having to travel to another place to visit. There is a long waiting process that nursing home and other institutional settings are not getting the right treatment and they do not take care of the elder as good as the family members would. I lead to stress over the decision.
Family trees are becoming longer and thinner. It could also mean when a family consist of so many generations with only a few that keep in contact with each other. This occurs in our society today because it is becoming more and more expensive to -‘lone parent’ A term used to describe a mother or a father or even a grandparent that has raised a child without their other partner. There are many reasons for this occurring in society for example there many different attitudes towards marriage for example in the 50’s it was social disgrace to have a child out of wedlock whereas now its is socially acceptable and even common. -’Extended family’ A definition of extended families is simply a family unit that extends past the nuclear family to include other relatives such as aunts, uncles, and grandparents.
Individuals with lower levels of education tend to deal with economic problems. In this fast growing and demanding era, living cost can be an issue for those who cannot meet the demand. The rent, utilities bills, food and not to mention when it comes to family with children; the diapers, formula, you name it, these basic necessity can be a burden for lower income parents. According to Bureau of Labor Statistic, the median weekly earning of people with no degree is $638 and the percentage of unemployment is 33%. This is due to the lack of interest by the organization to take them as employee.
All homes require upkeep and maintenance. Not everybody has the funds to tackle the home repairs that need to be meet. Paying for repairs can be very costly. Another advantage in renting an apartment/home instead of owning a home is that an individual can save money. There are many individuals that need the opportunity to establish stability and credit, which by renting an apartment or a house, he/she can gain leverage to reach his or her goal.
