			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Growing numbers of families are becoming the &#8220;care giver&#8221; in these hard economic times. According to a report by the National Alliance for Caregiving and AARP, 43.5 million Americans looked after a friend or relative age 50 or older in 2009, 28% more than in 2004.</p>
<p>Jeffrey Bloom, an elder-law attorney in Boston, says the number of such cases in his practice has quadrupled since before the recession. &#8220;I have several clients with adult children who are out of work, &#8220;he says.&#8221;Rather than pay someone else for care, many hire the child.&#8221;</p>
<p>While this might be a quick fix, long-term it places quite a burden on family and friends, and creates another financial burden.</p>
<p><a target='_blank' href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1jYxOXrpFTg&amp;feature=related"> Caregivers</a>, often make financial sacrifices; some have to quit their jobs or reduce their hours at work to take on the care giving responsibilities.</p>
<p>A very simple solution might be to participate in outreach programs such as The Golden Touch program which <a target='_blank' href="http://www.sscincorporated.com/">Social Service Coordinators</a> has in place. The programs is designed to assist eligible with a broad array of valuable money-saving social programs; from energy, nutrition and telephone cost assistance to transportation and property tax programs.</p>
<p>With Social Service Coordinators they have an extensive database of over 8,000 public and privately-sponsored social programs in all 50 states, which means immediate help for you as the caregiver and the one you are taking care of.</p>
<p>You deserve a quality of life that is free of illness and debt. Let the program not only help the person you are taking care of but let it lift some of the financial burden off of you.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Having a house with a beautiful winding stairs is great, yet it might not be very practical when you reach old age. There used to be a time when things are very easy but as people age, those things suddenly become challenges to everyday living. Climbing the stairs is among the things that used to be so easy but when you get old, it turns into a burden.</p>
<p>You do not have to transfer to a new home when this happens. A stair chair lift is the perfect solution if you have an elder or a relative who is having difficulty in moving up and down the house. Moreover, if you have relatives who are temporarily disabled or completely paralyzed, stair lifts allow independent living for the disabled.</p>
<p>The parts of a stair lift consists of a seat, pan, arm and foot rests, seat belt, movement control, and a start and stop function for moving up and down the custom fitted railing. Those who are suffering from lumbar pains will definitely benefit from the soft start and stop function key since it provides a smooth ride up and down the stairs.</p>
<p>There can be two sources of power for stair lifts: home electricity supply or battery operated pack. It is definitely more advantageous to use home electricity to run your stair lift but if you live in an area where power outage is common, opt for the battery operated power pack version. Having an electricity-run unit removes the possibility of getting stuck in the middle of the stairs when the power runs out. But then, if power outage is not common in your place, opt for the version that runs on home electricity.</p>
<p>The prices of chair lifts for stairs are dependent on the suppliers. The cost of owning one can reach as high as $7000 or more. Other factors that determine the price of the unit include its model or brand of stair lift and the shape and style of your stairs. Another factor that determines the price of a stair lift is whether or not the government will provide financial aid for purchase of the said product.</p>
<p>If you are on a budget, one of the ways to save on the cost of buying one is to find a second hand or a refurbished unit. You can check out for manufacturers themselves if they have these types of units, from classified advertisements, as well as in auction sites. Before you purchase anything, examine if what you are buying will allow the user to freely move up and down the stairs without assistance from anyone.</p>
<p>Stair chair lift, a considerably new technology, makes independent living for the disabled possible. For the aged and disabled who are living in spacious homes, having one makes life a little less difficult.</p>
