Many people wrongly believe that when people reach old age, their families place them in nursing homes. They think that they are left in the (36)       of strangers for the rest of their lives. Their (37)     children visit them only occasionally, but more often, they do not have any (38)      visitors. They live a lonely life without anyone’s care. The truth is that this idea is an unfortunate myth and (39)     story. In fact, family members provide over 80 percent of such care (40)     elderly people need.

However, because people today live longer after an illness than people did years (43)      , family members must provide long term care. We know, people need company, (44)     the elderly people.

More psychologists have found that all caregivers (45)   a common characteristic: All caregivers believe that they are the best (46)     for the job. In other words, they all felt that they (47)     do the job better than anyone else. They will do the job heart and soul. A survey was carried out between the caregivers. Social workers (48)      caregivers to find out why they took (49)    the responsibility of caring for an elderly relative. Many caregivers believed they had (50)      to help their relative. Some (51)      that helping others make them feel more useful and full. Others hoped that by helping (52)      now, they would (53)      care when they became old and (54)      .Caring for the elderly and being taken care of can be a mutually satisfying experience for everyone who might be (55)      .
