This achievement posed many challenges for the individual, family and society. Many people and their families grapple with the difficult and unprecedented questions of care in old age. Many families are unable and or incapable of taking adequate care of older persons; thus, requiring some institutional care and support system. Old age homes, day care centres, nursing homes and paid home care systems have been developed in response to the need for care in old age. Government of India passed Maintenance and Welfare of Parents and Senior Citizens Act, 2007 to ensure that families do not shirk the responsibility of care of older persons and for the very poor and destitute older persons, it has provision for building old age homes, at least one in each district in the country. This Directory of Old Age Homes in the country is an attempt to provide information to those likely to benefit from such services. Though, I only wish that future generations will continue to care for the elderly to prevent them from facing isolation and loneliness in this fast paced society.
