讀到碩士，跑去別人家清廚房當居服員，爸媽問號？【誰來晚餐X-36】我家從長照學會的事｜Guess Who ：My Family's Long-Term Care Lesson

「很多人問說：『幹嘛那麼年輕做長照，跟你又沒關係？我們還健健康康的，為什麼要做？』
我說：『因為我會怕啊。會怕我們老後⋯老後你想要怎麼生活？』

所以我會接觸居家，接觸社區照顧咖啡，就是覺得，大家都想要在自己原來生活的地方老去，我進到家裡面照顧你。」

大家對長照服務，可能還停留在餵食拍背、把屎把尿的內容？其實，更重要的工作，是老人在完全失能之前的陪伴。

誰來晚餐這次到台中拜訪長照居服員依仁，跟她在高雄的家人們。藉由她的家庭故事，告訴大家長照的商機和需求。為何依仁這樣一位讀到碩士畢業的人，要投入這一行？她的爸媽起先反對，但現在卻給她按讚！看了這一集以後，一起來思考一下：內需熱門行業，以後是不是有長照居服員這一行？居服員的鐘點費可是比速食和超商高呢～


Despite being well educated with an MSc in social work, 27-year-old Li Yi-ren chose a career in the long-term care industry where she's working her way up from the basics much to the dismay of her parents, who see caregiving as menial work.

In this episode, we discover what crucial role professional caregivers play in maintaining harmony in home; why Yi-ren feels the Japanese "nursing cafe" phenomenon will transform long-term care in the community; and how the experience of caring for a terminally ill loved one has convinced Yi-ren's family that signing a DNR form is the only compassionate thing to do.
