The reason my mother, who is over 70 years old, still works in the caregiving field.

The caregiving and medical fields are seriously lacking in personnel. There are various reasons for this, but looking at the reasons truly breaks my heart. There are people who are somehow holding on amidst chronic staff shortages. While caregiving and medical work is physically demanding, the emotional toll is also immense.
Moreover, there is the harsh reality of low wages due to structural issues within the industry... It might be disrespectful for someone who is not in that field to say this, but I can't help but wonder daily if something can be done. Since caregiving and medical jobs are absolutely necessary, I often think about whether we can create a system where those who work here are more rewarded.
My mother is over 70 years old, yet she still works in the caregiving field. She works at a hospital specializing in patients with difficult diseases.
Although she does not have a nursing qualification, she is responsible for the caregiving area at that hospital. Recently, two out of three caregiving staff members have quit, leaving my mother as the only one.
