    Orphans AND Widows

    By Jeremy | May 2, 2007

    Being a lifelong "youth guy," I write alot about God's heart for kids, especially the orphans, fatherless, and otherwise "at-risk" among us. This New Yorker article, quoted in today's Christianity Today blog, reminded me that God also cares for widows and the elderly. The article paints a bleak picture about our country's capacity to care for an increasingly aging population.
    Boult and his colleagues have yet another strategy, just in case—a strategy that they have called Guided Care, and that doesn’t depend on doctors at all. They’re recruiting local nurses for a highly compressed, three-week course in how to recognize specific problems in the elderly, such as depression, malnutrition, isolation, and danger of falling; how to formulate a plan to remedy those problems; and how to work with patients, families, and doctors to follow through on the plan. In a test of the strategy, the researchers are putting the nurses to work in primary-care practices around Baltimore and Washington, D.C., and studying the results. It is a meagre solution for a huge problem, but it is cheap, which insurers demand, and, if it provides even a fraction of the benefit geriatricians have, it could nudge medical care in the right direction.

    One Response to “Orphans AND Widows”

      Best business advice I ever got was when I bought my house. My friend and realtor, Jeff, advised me not to play hardball with the 84-year-old widow I was buying from. “It’s her retirement” he said, “and the Bible says to take care of widows. Here’s your shot.” That advice has served me well and helps me sleep better at night.
