Ekupheleni kuka-2022, inani labantu belizwe lam abaneminyaka engama-60 nangaphezulu liza kufikelela kwizigidi ezingama-280, elibalelwa kwi-19.8%. Abantu abadala abangaphezu kwezigidi ezili-190 bahlushwa zizifo ezingapheliyo, kwaye inani lesifo esinye okanye ezingaphezulu ezingapheliyo liphezulu njenge-75%. Izigidi ezingama-44, ziye zaba yinxalenye exhalabisayo yeqela elikhulu labantu abadala. Ngenxa yokwaluphala ngokukhawuleza kwabantu kunye nenani elandayo labantu abakhubazekileyo kunye ne-dementia, imfuno yokhathalelo loluntu nayo iyanda ngokukhawuleza.
Kule mihla yanamhlanje abantu abaluphalayo, ukuba kukho umntu omdala olele ebhedini nokhubazekileyo kusapho, akuyi kuba yingxaki enzima ukuyinyamekela, kodwa neendleko ziya kuba zinkulu kakhulu. Ukuba ibalwa ngokwendlela yokonga yokuqesha umsebenzi wokonga wabantu abadala, inkcitho yonyaka yomvuzo wokonga imalunga nama-60,000 ukuya kwi-100,000 (singabali iindleko zezinto zokonga). Ukuba abantu abadala baphila ngesidima iminyaka eli-10, ukusetyenziswa kwemali kule minyaka ili-10 kuya kufikelela kwi-1 yezigidi zeeyuan, andazi ukuba zingaphi iintsapho eziqhelekileyo ezingenakuyihlawula.
Kule mihla, ubukrelekrele bokwenziwa bungene kancinci kancinci kuzo zonke iinkalo zobomi bethu, kwaye bungasetyenziswa nakwiingxaki ezinzima kakhulu zomhlalaphantsi.
Emva koko, ngophuhliso olukhawulezayo lobuchule bokwenziwa namhlanje, ukuvela kweerobhothi zokhathalelo lwendlu yangasese ezikrelekrele zinokuziva kwaye zicubungule ngokuzenzekelayo umchamo kunye nomchamo kwimizuzwana emva kokuba zinxitywe emzimbeni wabantu abadala, kwaye umatshini uya kuzicoca ngokuzenzekelayo ngamanzi afudumeleyo kwaye wome ngomoya ofudumeleyo. Akukho mfuneko yokungenelela komntu. Kwangaxeshanye, kunokunciphisa ukwenzakala kwengqondo "kokuzihlonipha okuphantsi kunye nokungakwazi" kwabantu abadala abakhubazekileyo, ukuze bonke abantu abadala abakhubazekileyo bafumane isidima sabo kunye nenkuthazo yobomi. Kwangaxeshanye, ngokubhekiselele kwixabiso lexesha elide, irobhothi yokhathalelo lwendlu yangasese ekrelekrele iphantsi kakhulu kunexabiso lokhathalelo lwezandla.
Ukongeza, kukho uthotho lweerobhothi ezincedisayo ezibonelela ngoncedo lokuhamba, ucoceko, uncedo lokuhamba, ukhuseleko kunye nezinye iinkonzo zokusombulula iingxaki ezidibana nazo ekunyamekelweni kwemihla ngemihla kwabantu abadala.
Iirobhothi ezisebenzisana nazo zinokuhamba nabantu abadala kwimidlalo, ukucula, ukudanisa, njl. Imisebenzi ephambili ibandakanya ukhathalelo lwasekhaya, ukubeka abantu kwindawo ekrelekrele, ukubiza uncedo ngesitshixo esinye, uqeqesho lokubuyisela kwimeko yesiqhelo, kunye neefowuni zevidiyo nezelizwi nabantwana nangaliphi na ixesha.
Iirobhothi zosapho ezikhapha abantu ikakhulu zibonelela ngononophelo lwemihla ngemihla iiyure ezingama-24 kunye neenkonzo ezihamba nazo, zinceda abantu abadala ukuba banike unyango endaweni, kwaye zikwazi ukwenza imisebenzi efana nokuxilongwa kude kunye nonyango ngokunxibelelana nezibhedlele kunye nezinye iziko.
Ikamva lifikile, kwaye ukhathalelo lwabantu abadala olukrelekrele alusekho kude. Kukholelwa ukuba ngokufika kweerobhothi zokhathalelo lwabantu abadala ezikrelekrele, ezinemisebenzi emininzi, nezihlanganisiweyo kakhulu, iirobhothi zexesha elizayo ziya kuhlangabezana neemfuno zabantu ngokubanzi, kwaye amava okunxibelelana kwabantu neekhompyutha aya kuba nolwazi ngakumbi ngeemvakalelo zabantu.
Kungacingelwa ukuba kwixesha elizayo, ukubonelela kunye nemfuno yemarike yokhathalelo lwabantu abadala iya kushenxiswa, kwaye inani labasebenzi kwishishini labahlengikazi liya kuqhubeka nokuncipha; ngelixa uluntu luya kwamkela izinto ezintsha ezifana neerobhothi ngakumbi nangakumbi.
Iirobhothi ezibalaseleyo ngokwendlela ezisebenza ngayo, intuthuzelo, kunye noqoqosho zinokwenzeka ukuba zihlanganiswe kumakhaya onke kwaye zithathe indawo yabasebenzi bendabuko kwiminyaka embalwa ezayo.
