Portland, Oreg\u00f3n<\/b> \u2013 Al visitar el centro de comidas Meals on Wheels People del centro de la ciudad, el senador de Oreg\u00f3n, Jeff Merkley, anunci\u00f3 hoy la introducci\u00f3n de la Ley de Educaci\u00f3n y Revitalizaci\u00f3n del Acceso a la Comunidad (CARE) para los estadounidenses mayores en el Senado la pr\u00f3xima semana para ayudar a los estadounidenses mayores a permanecer en sus propios hogares y comunidades mientras edad.<\/p>\n
El proyecto de ley de Merkley crear\u00eda una Iniciativa de Atenci\u00f3n Comunitaria dentro de la Ley de Estadounidenses Mayores para coordinar servicios de apoyo como comidas, visitas de enfermer\u00eda y asistencia de transporte para que los estadounidenses mayores puedan seguir viviendo en sus hogares y comunidades. Sin estos servicios, a menudo terminan necesitando atenci\u00f3n hospitalaria o institucional costosa e impersonal.<\/p>\n
\n"Nadie quiere mudarse de su propia casa a un asilo de ancianos si no es necesario", dijo Merkley. \u201cEste proyecto de ley ayudar\u00e1 a garantizar que m\u00e1s personas mayores puedan recibir los servicios que necesitan para mantener una alta calidad de vida y seguir viviendo en el lugar que llaman hogar. Esta es una idea con beneficios potencialmente enormes para las personas mayores, para los hijos adultos que est\u00e1n preocupados por el costo astron\u00f3mico del cuidado a largo plazo para sus padres y tambi\u00e9n para los contribuyentes\u201d.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n
Con aproximadamente 10.000 Baby Boomers cumpliendo 65 a\u00f1os cada d\u00eda, ahora es m\u00e1s importante que nunca garantizar que los programas estadounidenses para personas mayores est\u00e9n funcionando de manera efectiva. Una mejor coordinaci\u00f3n entre los servicios permitir\u00eda que m\u00e1s de estos Baby Boomers jubilados permanecieran en sus hogares y comunidades a medida que envejecen, con una mayor calidad de vida y menores costos. Los programas domiciliarios y comunitarios suelen ser mucho menos costosos que los entornos institucionales como las residencias de ancianos.<\/p>\n
Con demasiada frecuencia, las personas mayores s\u00f3lo se enteran de los recursos disponibles para ellos, como el manejo de enfermedades cr\u00f3nicas, la promoci\u00f3n de la salud, la asistencia legal y programas de nutrici\u00f3n como Meals on Wheels despu\u00e9s de una emergencia de salud o una hospitalizaci\u00f3n costosa. La Ley CARE para estadounidenses mayores establecer\u00eda sistemas de atenci\u00f3n coordinados que funcionar\u00edan en todas las \u00e1reas de servicio para brindarles a las personas mayores la asistencia que necesitan desde el principio.<\/p>\n
A\u00f1o tras a\u00f1o, cuando el Congreso establece fondos para la Ley de Estadounidenses Mayores, los programas cr\u00edticos para personas mayores se pasan por alto y no cuentan con fondos suficientes. Merkley ha luchado constantemente para mejorar la inversi\u00f3n y el acceso a estos programas.<\/p>\n
Merkley tambi\u00e9n ha trabajado durante mucho tiempo para proteger las promesas que hacemos a las personas mayores durante toda su vida laboral, como la Seguridad Social y Medicare.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
