When we have an elder member in our family who is disabled or suppose not able to do his/her daily routine tasks because of aging problems then what we have to do. We can help him by giving the care which he/she required. Providing care by the family members to an elder person who is not able to live independent is not a new concept in fact it's going on from centuries ago and it has been assumed as an act of love, loyalty and affection of you towards your elder family members. It basically shows that how much you respect your elders and how much you need them. Elders are an important part of family. If you remember they have taken care of you whole day and night when you were a kid. Now when they are going down and becoming frail with their aging then it's your moral duty to return them all the care, attention and support which they have given you in your childhood and provide them the support emotionally and physically which they need.

There are several reasons due to which family members are not able to care for their elder. They might be so busy in their daily life so that can not provide full time care to their elders. They may find themselves busy in their business or in their job, in career or they may be also busy in other family responsibilities. Some people hire professional caregiver who can provide the care to their elders. I will like to let you know that whatever the issues you have are not more important then your elders who have given you so much affection in your childhood. Now when they need it from your side, you can not hide yourself behind responsibilities.        

Family members can play an important role in elderly care. If it's not possible for you anyhow to give them full time care then you should give them as much care as you can give them. There are certain benefits which will tell you that why your care is more beneficial for your family elders then any other professional caregiver.
•    If a family person will provide care then he will provide it in a familiar way while a professional caregiver will provide it professionally.
•    An elder person will feel more comfortable and relaxed with a family caregiver then a strange, fully professional caregiver.
•    If you will provide care to your elder persons of family then they will be extremely happy to see that how much you love them and care for them and this internal happiness inside of them will work like magic and they will be able to recover pretty soon.
