The Elderly Challenge

The four key recommendations are:
1.Elderly-friendly housing
2.More accessible transport for the elderly
3.Increased care for elders
4.Increased opportunity for elders

The CAI are recommending a bigger variety of housing options to cater to the needs of the elderly.

We can lower the cost of the care-taking services, and make their services more efficient.

As SST students, we can do more volunteer work, and be more friendly to the elderly, and lastly help in the construction of elderly-friendly equipment.

Research

1. I think research is about finding things either on the internet or books & reading materials so that we can learn more about things that we want to find out about.
2. I think that research is important as helps us to understand more about a certain topic.
3. We can conduct a good research by looking up not only the internet but also books that we have, and even enquiring from our friends if need be. We can also ask our teachers for information.
