DEALING WITH DEPENDENCY & DEATH
Dependency: becoming dependent on others for physical or financial assistance.
Remaining independent for as long as possible is one of the main goals of the elderly.
Most of the elderly do not tend to fear death. Why?1.The elderly acknowledge that they are toward the end of
their expected life span.2.If they have lived longer than they expected, they may feel
as though they are “living on borrowed time.”3.Facing the deaths of friends and family members who they
are close to prepares them for their own deaths.
