老年人照护服务延伸至家项目


Explanation:
I AM FROM MAINLAND CHINA。我觉得‘老年人’比‘高龄’用得多。我个人觉得我这个译法还是比较清晰易懂的,但好像长了点。

Wherestip, 谢谢你仔细查询对比。但我还是不是很赞同‘长期”的说法。我在GOOGLE上查了一下,没有找到确切答案。但我感觉在解释这个项目的时候,一般都强调在家可享受到在NURSING HOME的服务, 并没有提到时间长短问题。你给我的链接,我也仔细看了一下,里面提到四年的基金提供给该项目,但并没有提到该服务延续时间长短。我另外参考了两个网站,找到如下解释;
Extended Aged Care at Home Packages are designed to provide home based care with a standard of nursing and personal care that is equivalent to that received in high level residential care. http://www.aihw.gov.au/agedcare/nationalprogs/each.cfm

What is an EACH package? (contents)
The package aims to provide services to help an aged person stay at home when normally they would need to go into a nursing home to get the level of care they require. The services will work together with the care recipient, carers, family, friends and neighbours to give the needed support and assistance. They can also provide support, advice and information to carers.
http://www.carersnsw.asn.au/infosupport/facts/Other/fseach.h...

可能是先入为主,我看到EXENDED AGED CARE AT HOME,第一想到的就是将服务延伸到家中,而且不觉得不妥, 也许主观了点, 希望听听大家更多的想法。谢谢

IMHO the reason the English is so awkward is because they wanted to make up the acronym \"EACH\"(see the link I posted to hongsang). Otherwise they probably would have just called it \"longterm elderly home care\", IMHO.

To hongsang: IMHO \"extended care\" typically would mean that the care \"drags on\" for a period time until the person/s passes away, as in a hospice or nursing home situation. People who suffer from dementia(Alzheimer\'s) could live on for a long time, and would need extended care no matter where the care is coming from.

I also see your point of interpreting this as a governmental outreach program extending a helping hand to the elderly. It very well could be also.

Sorry, I was paraphrasing, but kind of \"distorted\" your interpretation: 第一想到的就是将服务延伸到家中,而且不觉得不妥.

agree  Wenjer Leuschel (X): That could be an usual way to say it in China.
1 hr
  -> Thanks, Wenjer

disagree  hongsang: 我觉得EXTENDED在这里应该是指EXTEND THE SERVICE FROM HOSPITAL TO HOME, 所以翻成‘长期’ 不是很合理。当然,这要看该服务项目具体内容是什么,EXTENDED也有可能是指时间上的延续,但我还是比较偏向指服务范围的延伸。

  -> Thanks, hongsang. I read through this link and still think this refers to longterm care http://www.health.gov.au/internet/budget/publishing.nsf/Cont...
