With the rise of the silver economy, China is exploring the following diversified solutions to address the elderly care issue:
1. Policy support and system construction
Improving pension systems
Continuously reform and完善 the basic pension insurance system to ensure the financial security of the elderly. For example, gradually raising the pension payment level in line with economic development and price increases, and expanding the coverage of pension insurance to include more groups, such as rural residents and flexible employment personnel.
Establish a long term care insurance system in some pilot areas. This system aims to provide financial support for the elderly who need long term care due to disability or chronic diseases, relieving the financial burden on families.
Formulating relevant policies for the silver economy
The government has issued a series of policies to encourage the development of the silver haired industry, such as preferential tax policies for enterprises engaged in elderly care services and products, and land use policies to support the construction of elderly care facilities.
2. Elderly care service model innovation
Home based care services
Promote the combination of medical care and elderly care at home. Through community medical service centers, provide regular medical check ups, rehabilitation guidance, and home visit doctor services for the elderly at home, so that the elderly can enjoy professional medical services without leaving home.
Develop home based care service teams, including professional nurses, caregivers, and volunteers. These teams can provide daily care services such as cooking, cleaning, and accompanying the elderly, meeting the basic living needs of the elderly at home.
Community based elderly care services
Build comprehensive community elderly care service centers, integrating functions such as day care, short term care, cultural and recreational activities, and health management. The elderly can come to the service center during the day for activities, meals, and rest, and return home at night, which not only meets their social needs but also relieves the burden on families.
Encourage the participation of community residents in elderly care services through volunteer activities and neighborhood mutual assistance. For example, organize young residents in the community to form volunteer teams to regularly visit and help the elderly in need in the community.
Institutional elderly care services
Strengthen the construction and management of elderly care institutions. Improve the hardware facilities of elderly care institutions, such as accommodation environment, medical facilities, and recreational facilities, and at the same time, improve the service quality of institutions by strengthening the training of service personnel.
Differentiate the types of elderly care institutions to meet the different needs of the elderly. There are high end elderly care institutions for the elderly with higher economic strength, which can provide more personalized and high quality services; there are also affordable elderly care institutions for the low income elderly group, ensuring that they can also enjoy basic elderly care services.
3. Promotion of the silver haired industry
Elderly care products development
Encourage enterprises to develop a variety of elderly care products, such as intelligent assistive devices (such as smart wheelchairs, smart walking aids), health monitoring devices (such as smart bracelets for monitoring blood pressure and heart rate), and products for the daily life of the elderly (such as easy to use daily necessities).
Focus on the research and development of products suitable for the special needs of the elderly, such as products for the elderly with dementia, including anti lost positioning devices and memory assisting products.
Elderly care service industry expansion
Develop elderly care tourism, design tourism products and routes suitable for the physical and mental characteristics of the elderly. For example, slow paced sightseeing tours, health care tourism projects combined with hot springs and traditional Chinese medicine health preservation.
Promote the development of the elderly care education industry, offer courses on health care, calligraphy, painting, and music for the elderly to enrich their spiritual and cultural life.
4. Technological empowerment
Smart elderly care applications
Use the Internet of Things technology to build smart elderly care homes. For example, install sensors in the homes of the elderly to monitor the living conditions of the elderly in real time, such as whether there is a fall, whether the gas is leaked, and whether the water is running abnormally. Once an abnormal situation is detected, it can send an alarm to family members or relevant service providers in time.
Develop mobile applications for the elderly care service. Through these apps, the elderly can easily access medical services, order meals, participate in cultural and recreational activities, and family members can also remotely monitor the living conditions of the elderly and communicate with them.
Telemedicine in elderly care
Promote the development of telemedicine in the field of elderly care. The elderly can have remote consultations with doctors through video calls, and doctors can view the medical records and real time health data of the elderly to provide diagnosis and treatment advice. This is especially convenient for the elderly with limited mobility.
