Want Narcissistic Families Who Can Afford Homecare&Care Management?

May 5, 2022

 Types of aging families who can afford Homecare &care management

Families who can afford geriatric care management and home care long-term can do so because they are VIP  clients. They are often headed by a scion with a narcissistic borderline personality. These VIP Clients have the financial resources,  to pay 4-6K for home care and long-term geriatric care management which is usually over a million dollars in assets.  Part of this is drawn from Claudia Fine and Nick Newcombe’s excellent chapter “Entitlement in the Aging Family”, Care Managers Working With the Aging Family, Jones and Bartlett)

Narcissistic-Entitled Families:

Entitlement in these VIP families usually develops from a specific kind of “not good enough parenting” in which the parents themselves have struggled with personality disorders, most typically, in this type of family, narcissistic borderline personality  ( example Former President Trump)They struggled with a borderline personality that went undiagnosed or was formally diagnosed and untreated.

Sumner Redstone’s VIP Family Struggles

Sumner Redstone is another example of this type of narcissistic borderline personality in heading a VIP family. He was a Media Magnate who founded CBS Viacom with a net worth of 500 billion. His narcissistic borderline personality created a long-term struggle with his family over inheritance and control after he developed dementia. My Redstone was conserved by his daughter

US COVID Double Jeporady- Race& Aging

February 1, 2022

To Celebrate Black History Month let’s explore the recent revelation from COVID of the Double Jeopardy of COVID Race and Aging

There is a US  double Jeporady- Race and Aging showing up in our 3-year-old pandemic. Black people and older adults are the two groups most affected by COVID-19. History is not just about the good things that transpired but the negative events that occur like COVID and what it has revealed about the health of both Elders &Black Americans.

This double jeopardy, as a race- and age-informed analysis, demonstrates how Black race and old age are associated with practices and policies that shape key life circumstances (e.g., racial residential segregation, family and household composition) and resources in ways that embody elevated risk for COVID-19.
In a cross-sectional study of adults tested for COVID -19 in a large midwestern academic health system, COVID-19 positivity was associated with the Black race. Among patients with COVID-19, both race and poverty were associated with a higher risk of hospitalization, but only poverty was associated with a higher risk of intensive care unit admission.

Racial Capitalism

Double Jeopardy -Race& Aging

Racial capitalism is a fundamental cause of the racial and socioeconomic inequities within the novel coronavirus pandemic (COVID-19) in the United States.
The Double Jeopardy -Race, and aging show up in the overrepresentation of Black death reported in Detroit, Michigan is a case study for this argument. Racism and capitalism mutually create harmful social conditions that fundamentally shape COVID-19 disease inequities. These disease inequities  (a) shape multiple diseases that interact with COVID-19 to influence poor health outcomes; (b) affect disease outcomes through increasing multiple risk factors for poor, people of color, including racial residential segregation, homelessness, and medical bias; (c) shape access to flexible resources, such as medical knowledge and freedom, which can be used to minimize both risks and the consequences of disease; and (d) replicate historical patterns of inequities within pandemics, despite newer intervening mechanisms thought to ameliorate health consequences. I would also add that the majority of paid caregivers are people of color and contract it because they work with COVID patients- .  Interventions should address social inequality to achieve health equity across pandemics.

How Do We Change the Roots of This Double Jeopardy of Race & Aging?

So we hope that these health revelations will spur our government to address the roots of this double jeopardy-Race and Aging, something we have failed to address, these historical patterns of inequity for poor people of color and all people of color not just over pandemics but our entire caste system when elders and people of color are at the bottom, as Martin Luther King said, along with the untouchables

On the 4th of July we celebrate our country and the American dream . We believe opportunity should be available to all. But within geriatric care management field, along with so many fields, we need to expand that American Dream.

 

Only 1.6% Black African Americans are geriatric care managers, according to the 2014 Geriatric Care Management Benchmark Survey. We need more people of color in the field. Here are some ideas on how to fund your education if you are a minority.

If you are a Black African American  and want to be a geriatric social worker ,you might check out the National Association of Black Social Work  for help, guidance and scholarships to get a degree in social work.

 

 

 

If you want to be an RN geriatric care manager

If you are an RN there are minority based RN scholarships. .

Do not hesitate to seek help in joining the field of geriatric care management if you are a person of color. We need you— and there is help.
