Seminar on Future Preparation and Support Services for Seniors
On April 27, 2023, Akari Hosho, a company operated by lawyers, will host its inaugural seminar titled "How to Prepare? Creating Peace of Mind for the Future" in Nagoya. With an increasing number of inquiries coming from individuals living alone or in couples, this seminar aims to shed light on identity guarantee and family replacement services that are becoming vital in today's society.
What to Expect from the Seminar
The seminar is designed for:
- - Individuals wanting to begin end-of-life planning but unsure of where to start.
- - Those considering the utilization of lifelong support services (identity guarantee).
- - Professionals involved in end-of-life related services.
Experts such as lawyers, care managers, and other professionals will provide clear and comprehensive explanations to help participants navigate their options.
Understanding Lifelong Support Services
As Japan faces a rapidly aging society, the number of seniors over 60 is on the rise. Currently, there are approximately 9 million households with elderly individuals living alone, which is projected to increase to 10.32 million by 2050 for elderly individuals without children. This situation underscores the pressing need for identity guarantors, especially for seniors living alone who face various risks when unforeseen circumstances occur. Identity guarantors provide essential support during hospital admissions, facilitate communications with nursing facilities, and offer assistance in emergencies, ensuring seniors can live with peace of mind.
Who Benefits?
Lifelong support services primarily cater to:
- - Elderly individuals living alone without reliable relatives.
- - Couples without children.
- - Those with distant or complicated family relationships.
- - Singles aged 40 to 60 contemplating future preparations.
- - Working-age individuals supporting their parents' later life (risk management).
Common Concerns Addressed
Participants of the seminar often share concerns like:
- - The need for a guarantor as they have no one to rely on in the future.
- - The desire to avoid burdening family members with posthumous procedures.
- - Requests to assist with their parents’ end-of-life planning.
- - Instances where adults face hospital admission rejections due to a lack of guarantors.
- - Difficulties in finding a guarantor for admission to senior homes.
- - Absence of trustworthy individuals to manage post-death arrangements.
Unfortunately, current social systems and legal frameworks are inadequately equipped to address these pressing needs.
