What are the problems faced by Old Age homes in India?

India has one of the fastest-rising elderly populations in the world. India is currently thought to have the second-largest global population of senior persons. By 2050, it is anticipated that the current population will have increased even more. India, however, lacks the fundamental resources and knowledge required to maintain the health and welfare of the old.

 

The most common concerns among Indian seniors, according to studies conducted across the nation, are rising healthcare costs, a lack of financial support, and isolation. Additionally, the majority of elderly individuals do not receive the respect and care they merit. As a result, providing care for the elderly is crucial nowadays.
