Challenges and Solutions for Rural Mutual-Support Elderly Care:A Perspective of Embeddedness Theory

In rural China,the trend of population aging and family hollowing is becoming increasingly severe.Traditional elderly care methods are no longer adequate to meet the growing demand for elderly care,leading to the emergence of mutual-support elderly care as a new approach to elderly care.Mutual support has gained widespread practice and has become a vital component of the rural elderly service system.However,rural mutual-support elderly care encounters development bottlenecks,including local cultural resilience,disembedding of social relationships,gaps in policies and regulations,and multiple coordination challenges.Embeddedness theory emphasizes the need for social behavior to be embedded in the network of social connections,providing a valuable theoretical framework for mutual-support elderly care.Drawing on embeddedness theory,this paper investigates the accessibility of mutual-support elderly care in rural areas by examining cognitive embeddedness,relational embeddedness,systemic embeddedness,and structural embeddedness.By addressing the development bottlenecks of mutual-support elderly care in rural China,this paper aims to propose ideas for achieving high-quality development in rural mutual-support elderly care.

Community-based elderly care services in China: an analysis based on the 2018 wave of the CLHLS Survey

Community-based elderly care services play an important role in dealing with popu-lation aging.Based data from the 2018 wave of the Chinese Longitudinal Healthy Longevity Survey,we found that overall there was high demand for community-based elderly care services,but insufficient supply,resulting in unmet needs.The greatest demand was for medical care and nursing services and these were gener-ally more accessible compared to other services.The imbalance between available supply and elderly demand was greatest for personal care and psychological con-sulting services.Additionally,there were obvious imbalances of supply and demand for particular groups of the elderly population.In terms of demand,the young-old living in eastern and western China or urban areas had stronger demand for com-munity-based elderly care services.Elderly people with serious disabilities or low income,or living in rural areas and towns had more demand for home visit medical services,while the elderly with the ability to care for themselves or high incomes needed more social and entertainment services.With respect to inadequate supply,the demands for community-based elderly care services of the low-income elderly living in rural areas and towns or in western China were more likely to be unmet.Our results indicated that appropriate services should be provided by government agencies and institutions to meet the needs of various groups.It is also important to increase accessibility to community-based elderly care services as well as to guaran-tee an equitable distribution of supply.

The research of the community-home elderly long-term care service system

With the rapid development of the aging of the population, the demand of long-term care services in the elderly is growing.
