Who should pay for the old people medical attention In British culture, it is common for elderly people to reside in an apartment in a shared house because they need care. The expense of medical attention is extremely high. There are some people who argue that it is the family responsibility to pay the care fees while others believe that the government has a duty to look after the welfare of the vulnerable. There are some reasons for both are as follows. Who think government should pay for elderly care the first reason is that it is the duty of government to take care the aged and the weak. Next, people was required to pay the tax from their working income, government should prepared money for the old people welfare which is include medical attention. On the other hand, family also has responsible to take care their senior members, the cost of their medical care should charge by family.In the meanwhile,If they want to have better medical service such like to hire a personal nurse to take care of them or ask medical institution to provide personal service, family should pay for it in these situations. After considering both arguments, there is evidence to support each side of the debate. The government has a duty to care for their citizens although families should contribute if they desire to have better quality service. Base on these point it is clear that the government should provide a baseline of care for people who need medical attention but they can not afford the expense.
