This article aims to provide a practical overview concentrating on civil legal aspects of psychiatric care for the elderly. We limit ourselves to English law (which also has jurisdiction in Wales; Scottish and Northern Irish law may be similar, but not identical). Civil law can, in turn, be divided into statute law (legislation provided by Parliament) and common law (the UK, unlike some European countries, has a strong tradition of law based on previous rulings by judges).

Penelitian ilmiah ini membahas tentang pelayanan pastoral terhadap kaum lansia ditengah pandemic covid-19. Pelayanan pastoral terhadap jemaat kaum lansia yang ada di dalam gereja adalah sesuatu yang penting karena diharapkan para lansia tetap dapat digembalakan dan diberdayakan sesuai dengan kapasitas atau potensi yang ada pada mereka sekalipun ditengah pandemi covid-19, bahkan diharapkan kaum lansia dapat tetap mengaktualisasikan diri. Metode penelitian yang digunakan adalah kualitatif, penelitian kepustakaan (Libarary Research) fokus pada penafsiran Kitab Suci sesuai dengan kaidah gramatikal, historical, dan konteks. Tujuan penelitian ini adalah untuk menunjukkan bukti data Alkitab bahwa orang lanjut usia masih memiliki potensi yang dapat diberdayakan, sebagaimana Tuhan tetap memakai tokoh-tokoh Alkitab di usia senjanya sehingga pelayanan pastoral terhadap kaum lansia ditengah pandemi covid-19 tetap dapat dijalankan dengan baik.   ABSTRACT _______________________________________________________________ This scientific research discusses pastoral care for the elderly in the midst of the COVID-19 pandemic. Pastoral care for the congregation of the elderly in the church is important because it is hoped that the elderly can be shepherded and empowered according to their capacity or potential even in the middle. COVID-19 pandemic, it is hoped that the elderly can still actualize themselves. The research method used is qualitative, library research (Library Research) focuses on the interpretation of the Scriptures by grammatical, historical, and contextual rules. The purpose of this study is to show evidence of biblical data that the elderly still have the potential that can be empowered, as God continues to use biblical figures in his old age so that pastoral care for the elderly amid the COVID-19 pandemic can still be done well.

These comments on Hendrik Hartog's Someday All This Will Be Yours: A History of Inheritance and Old Age (2012) examine the delivery of elder care in the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries and the resonance with care practices today. The book's stories of how older people arranged for their care transcend time and place, showing the age‐old difficulties of providing care for the elderly.

Care For The Elderly

Currently, the questions of how older people fit into the context of modern reality, to what extent their inherent life ideas are consistent with existing social norms are becoming relevant. The history of the development of attitudes towards the elderly, the position of old people is constantly changing. It is known that the life of old people largely depends on their social status in society. The article presents the results of studying the attitude of young people and people of mature age in Yakutia to old age and readiness to care for the elderly. The study involved representatives of young and mature age in the amount of 222, including 109 men, 113 women. 142 (64%) respondents live in cities, 80 (36%) - in rural areas. 68 (31%) of the respondents have higher education, the rest - secondary, 85.3% of the respondents are of mature age and 14.7% of young people live with their parents. The analysis of ethnographic works, folklore materials was used as research methods; survey method. The reliability of the difference in indicators was checked using the angular Fisher transformation. Analysis of the research results allows us to note that respondents treat elderly people with patience and care, however, young people tend to be indifferent to aging parents. The attitude towards the placement of parents in nursing homes is also noticeably different: young people are ready to place their parents in nursing homes if the circumstances are difficult. Comparison was also made of the opinions of representatives of different nationalities about their attitude to old age, and their willingness to care for elderly parents, it found that they also differ. Comparison of the research indicators showed that there is a high connection with the family among representatives of the small peoples of the north, they are also more re- sponsible for their parents, although in other nations, the readiness to care for the elderly is high among the Yakuts (p <0.05). In the future, the study of attitudes towards old age will be relevant, since the aging of the population is observed throughout the world.
