Care system is failing elderly people: Alison Phillips column - Alison Phillips - Mirror Online


CREATIVE LIVING AWARENESS WELFARE (CLAW):

It has been learnt that those old people who are kept in care homes of care companies pay a high charges for governing them properly because most of their family members left back at home cannot give proper care and attendace to their disable elders. 

Hence, most of these old aged people are admitted in privately run care homes with the hope that they would be better cared, nourished, attended and their likewise for which their family people pay high charges to the companies concerned. 

In some countries, their governments also share the expenses of these senior citizens of their respective countries. How great are those nations and their country governments that care for their senior citizens so much!

CREATIVE LIVING AWARENESS WELFARE (CLAW):

Its really shocking to know how poor services are given by care companies to disable old aged people most of whom were once key persons in their work, family and society. 

We must feel for the poor services provided by privately run care companies whose employees as attendents are paid very poor salaries.

For that the governments of the concerning countries should consider a special budget set up to pay to these old aged seriously ill people as 'dignity stipend' who are almost terminally ill people so that their younger people of the nation can feel proud of being useful  to their elders who once brought them up and the victims (old aged disable people) can feel proud of their caring junior genarations who are at present tax-payers, businessmen, legislators, ministers, law-makers, social welfare NGO Workers and their like concerning people so that the elderly people after their sufferings of whatever disease can die and dignity death with peace of mind.

// NEW YORK: Gentlemen, we can rebuild him, after all. We have the technology.


The term "bionic man" was the stuff of science fiction in the 1970s, when a popular TV show called "The Six Million Dollar Man" chronicled the adventures of Steve Austin, a former astronaut whose body was rebuilt using artificial parts after he nearly died.


Now, a team of engineers has assembled a robot using artificial organs, limbs and other body parts that comes tantalizingly close to a true "bionic man." For real, this time.


The artificial "man" is the subject of a Smithsonian Channel documentary that airs Sunday, Oct. 20 at 9 p.m. Called "The Incredible Bionic Man," it chronicles engineers' attempt to assemble a functioning body using artificial parts that range from a working kidney and circulation system to cochlear and retina implants.


The parts hail from 17 manufacturers around the world. This is the first time they've been assembled together, says Richard Walker, managing director of Shadow Robot Co. and the lead roboticist on the project.


"(It's) an attempt to showcase just how far medical science has gotten," he says.


The robot making appearances in the U.S. for the first time this week. Having crossed the Atlantic tucked inside two metal trunks — and after a brief holdup in customs — the bionic man will strut his stuff at the New York Comic Con festival on Friday.


Walker says the robot has about 60 to 70 percent of the function of a human. It stands six-and-a-half feet tall and can step, sit and stand with the help of a Rex walking machine that's used by people who've lost the ability to walk due to a spinal injury. It also has a functioning heart that, using an electronic pump, beats and circulates artificial blood, which carries oxygen just like human blood. An artificial, implantable kidney, meanwhile, replaces the function of a modern-day dialysis unit.


Although the parts used in the robot work, many of them are a long way from being used in humans. The kidney, for example, is only a prototype. And there are some key parts missing: there's no digestive system, liver, or skin. And, of course, no brain.


The bionic man was modeled after Bertolt Meyer, a 36-year-old social psychologist at the University of Zurich who was born without his lower left arm and wears a bionic prosthesis. The man's face was created based on a 3D scan of Meyer's face.


"We wanted to showcase that the technology can provide aesthetic prostheses for people who have lost parts of their faces, for example, their nose, due to an accident or due to, for example, cancer," Meyer says.


Meyer says he initially felt a sense of unease when he saw the robot for the first time.


"I thought it was rather revolting to be honest," he says. "It was quite a shock to see a face that closely resembles what I see in the mirror every morning on this kind of dystopian looking machine."


He has since warmed up to it, especially after the "man" was outfitted with some clothes from the U.K. department store Harrods.


And the cost? As it turns out, this bionic man comes cheaper than his $6-million-dollar sci-fi cousin. While the parts used in the experiment were donated, their value is about $1 million. (AP) //

// ISLAMABAD: Smokers die ten years early than non-smokers, a new study has revealed.

The first ever long-term Australian study suggested that even light smokers, who consume ten or fewer cigarettes a day, are at double the risk of dying, DECCAN Chronicle reported.

The study of the 200,000 Australians aged over 45 by Sax Institute found that two thirds of deaths in current smokers can be directly attributed to smoking.

The study by Professor Emily Banks, found that current smokers were three times more likely to die than people who had never smoked.

Around eight percent of the study's participants were current smokers,

while just over a third were past smokers...........//
