By: Barbara Klein Many elderly people have enough to worry about without adding these concerns to their plate. If a person plans for retirement and they reach it without too many concerns, then most do not think about what will or could happen until they are faced with it. Medical issues are usually the first sign of aging and the need for concern to come into play for those facing them. Medication comes with the aging process and cost then starts to become a concern not just for the elderly person it is affecting but, to the insurance company that provides the coverage. Some insurance companies begin to pick and choose which type of medications, treatments as well as who can do what and how and still be covered. Depending on who you are and how much you have saved this can bring a worry about how you will be able to live without the medical coverage you need and where you can afford to live as well. Then if you become unable to make your own decisions who will take that role on for you, if plans and steps have not been put into place before becoming an issue for you then there is all kinds of concerns to make arrangements for. Court services will be needed to get you a guardian to make all your choices for your care medically and financially. This could be a person you do not even know or knows your wishes. This is where you need a medical power of attorney before any issues can become concerns about your care. Also you need to make your wish known not just to them but everyone involved with you so there is no concerns if these are your wishes or not. A DNR is a document that will make your choices about care and major decisions known. Food and shelter cost along with concerns for people taking advantage of the elderly plays parts in the aging process as well. Many elderly fall prey to scams every year. Whether it be through home repairs not done properly or never finished but, the people have got their money or to things such as sweepstakes making them think they have won money to get them to order or buy something is a big problem and continues to grow with new and even more scams to have them fall victim to. Making life decisions before they become issues is the best and safest route we can do for our elderly loved ones. Take the time or make the time to protect your loved ones now before they fall victim to the aging and medical concerns they face.
