In 2000, the population aged 65 and above in China was 88.21 million, accounting for nearly 7% of the total population according to the United Nations' aging society standard. The academic community regards this year as the first year of China's aging population.
Over the past 20 years, under the leadership of governments at all levels, a elderly care service system has gradually formed that is based on home, community-based, supplemented by institutions and combined with medical care. In 2021, more than 90% of the elderly in China will choose to live at home for retirement; Build 318000 community elderly care service institutions and facilities, with 3.123 million beds; Build 358000 elderly care institutions and facilities that provide accommodation, with 8.159 million elderly care beds.
High-quality development of China and the dilemma faced by elderly care services
At present, China has entered a stage of high-quality development and is on the road of national rejuvenation to achieve the Chinese path to modernization. However, China is also the country with the largest elderly population in the world today.
In 2018, the elderly population aged 65 and above in China reached 155.9 million, accounting for 23.01% of the global elderly population; At that time, India's elderly population was 83.54 million, accounting for 12.33% of the global population and ranking second. In 2022, the population of China aged 65 and above was 209.8 million, accounting for 14.9% of the national population.
Elderly care services are an important component of the social security system provided by the state through legislation to provide the necessary material and spiritual needs for the elderly population who have partially or completely lost their ability to work in the redistribution of national income and market allocation of resources. The undeniable reality is that the common problems faced by China in the development of home care, community care, institutions, and medical care integrated elderly care services are still the shortage of human resources such as "only children cannot be cared for, it is difficult to find reliable nannies, the number of professional caregivers is small, and the flow of nursing staff is large".
