宁波模式:社区居家养老服务的发展路径研究

Ningbo Model: The Development Path of Community Home Care Service

宁波市是我国较早开展社区居家养老服务的城市之一。当前人口老龄化问题日益加剧,传统的家庭养老和机构养老都不可避免地有其局限性。面对多种形式的养老模式,居家养老仍是宁波市老年人的首选养老方式,但由此带来的问题是,老年人对居家养老服务的强烈需求和社会供给严重不足之间的矛盾日益显现。宁波市的社区居家养老服务模式以社区为平台,整合社会资源,在保持原有家庭养老功能的基础上,更有专业性的养老服务作为保障,从而提高了养老服务的公平性和可及性;但是其仍需要在服务的长效性、专业性和服务质量保障,以及服务机制创新等方面予以加强,以形成具有区域特色的模式范本。

Ningbo is one of the cities who developed community home care system in early period. The problem created by population aging is growing. The traditional family support system and institutional care system can not meet elderly＇s needs, Home care is the primary support system for elderly in Ningbo among a variety of old-age support systems, though there is a shortage in supply. When maintaining the original home care, community home care service improves the fairness and accessibility of old-age support by integrating social resources and providing professional services. We propose that the community home care system could be improved in terms of service, professional and service quality assurance, and service mechanism.
