On the one hand, China entered the aging society, old-age needs to grow exponentially. The sixth national census shows that in our country, the population aged 60 and 13.26% of the total population over the total number of 179 million, 65 years and older the proportion of 8.87% of the total population, the absolute number of nearly 120 million.

The purpose of this study was to examine perception of users and providers of the quality of home health care services. Methods: A descriptive design was used to collect data from a convenience sample of 82 users of home health care services. Results: Users had low to fair satisfaction (30.5% - 69.5%) about the quality of care provided, had moderate satisfaction (72.0% to 81.7%) about the information received, and had low to fair satisfaction about education related to goal of treatment and medication (46.4% - 53.3%). Users had high level of agreement (>70%) that health agencies provided interpersonal care. Conclusion: The ability of the frail people to choose from a variety of cost-effective long-term care services is limited.展开更多

At present, Shanghai is facing serious aging phenomenon, the contradiction between supply and demand has become more and more intensified. This paper will analyze the status of supply and demand about Shanghai community endowment services, and then identify the existing problems and reasons for the accordance in supply and demand on the base of analysis. Ultimately, this paper will raise suggestions about promoting the matching between supply and demand of Shanghai community home care service.展开更多
