One way to deal with the situation would be to ensure that the elderly have enough money on which to live.Obviously，when a person stops working，they still require a source of income to cover their basic needs such as food，accommodation and heating.A clear solution to the problem is for the government to make sure that the state pension is adequate for these needs.

　　Steps should also be taken to overcome the health problems the elderly face.The government should also provide access to the best health care available，which may necessitate paying for residential homes where the elderly can have round­the­clock nursing，or，at the very least，providing medication free of charge to all people over a certain age.

　　The lives of old people could be improved if attempts were made to address the problem of social isolation.If we organised trips for the elderly to community centres，visits from social workers their problem of loneliness can be reduced a lot which marks the lives of so many old people living alone and far from their families.
