Shy of showing statistics of elderly left to die alone at home
"Singapore : The population of residents aged 65 and over has nearly doubled, from 378,640 in 2012 to 678,130 in 2022. Of these, the percentage of those living alone has risen from 17.6 per cent to 23.1 per cent during that period."
Note
Estimated 160,000 aged 65 and over are living alone.
Suggestions: Govt only needs healthcare and social workers combined total 1,000 workforce ( or maybe lesser) to periodically track only those unwell elderly conditions.
What so difficult?

It would be senile to ask volunteers to help the elderly as they are not trained, not dedicated long term, and not legally bound under the law ie go into houses to steal.
Only paid trained dedicated workers can help the elderly.
