What is the mode of providing for the aged in China?

Starting from 20051,China's elderly population will reach a peak of 437 million. At present, the size of the elderly population will be stable at 300-400 million, and the aging level will basically be stable at about 3 1% of the total population.

The proportion of the elderly population aged 80 and above to the total population will remain at 25% ~ 30%, and it will enter a platform period of high aging.

China's aging is facing the second stage, the accelerated aging period. During this period, the disadvantages of 4-2- 1 family are increasingly prominent. So what is 4-2- 1 family? The so-called 4-2- 1 family, the only children are married in pairs, there are 1 children, and there are four elderly people on it, forming 4-2- 1, in which the pressure is concentrated on 2, and this family structure is mainly concentrated in first-tier cities. Children should not only face the pressure of work, but also bear the problems of raising children and supporting elderly parents. If parents are unfortunately ill in bed, how to take care of four elderly people of the same age?

Take the old-age cat as an example: in a typical 4-2- 1 family born after 80s in an urban area of Guangzhou, a couple raised four old people and one child, which is quite common. However, according to relevant statistics, some post-80s couples should not only consider the problem of parents' support for the elderly, but also face the problem that the elderly who are over 80 years old are still alive and need care.

Now the traditional "raising children to prevent old age" is facing a realistic dilemma, which is no longer suitable for the current family pension model!

Now, how should I provide for the aged has become the voice of our elders. Can't you rely on children or the country? The answer is stillno. People of the older generation all know that due to the accelerated aging, the country's financial capacity is insufficient, and private enterprises and private bosses are guided and encouraged to enter the field of old-age care to solve problems for the country. At present, the state encourages and supports old-age care, and the call of "I am the master of my old-age care" has injected fresh blood into the old-age care market in recent years, and a large number of personalized, graded and equal old-age care parks have emerged. ...

Then let's analyze several ways of providing for the aged:

Home care

Suitable for newly retired old people, especially those aged 60-75. At this age, they have good physical indicators and can control their own lives. They can play wherever they want, travel wherever they want, and enjoy their old age!

However, after 70 years old, I feel that my health is getting worse every year. Climbing from the foot of the mountain to the top of the mountain was not a problem before. Now I have to take two more stairs to have a rest. I used to feel that the accident was far away from me, and no one knew it would happen to me. Miss Li, a unilateral teacher in a university in Guangzhou, raised a child. The child is excellent. She worked abroad and hired a nanny for eight years. Unfortunately, she caught up with the low outbreak of 20 19. Miss Li was at home and missed the golden rescue time. She was taken to the intensive care unit of the hospital. Afraid of taking care of the infected virus, the nanny timidly resigned and fled back to the countryside. The child can't go back to China. Miss Li spent the New Year in 2020 alone in the hospital. In China culture, it is the greatest unfilial for children not to see the old man for the last time, but who knows the difficulties here?

The disadvantages of home-based care for the aged are increasingly obvious.

1. Child care

4-2- 1 family, children are under great family pressure and can't take care of them. The old man's parents spent time at home and gradually formed a sense of loneliness.

Hire a nanny

Faced with danger, the nanny ran away. Recently, the "Jiangsu nanny suffocated the elderly" incident continued to ferment on the Internet, which made people lament the confusion of the nanny market and the lack of medical common sense. Home-based care for the aged is a time bomb!

3. Institutional pension

Advantages:

You can talk to your peers and open your heart.

Perfect medical care and timely rescue.

Nursing specialty, service supervision.

With 24-hour care, children can rest assured that they have more time to deal with family and work problems.

University for the aged, find your hobbies, make like-minded friends, and play your second spring.

……

What the cat wants to say is that no matter what kind of old-age care, we can't do without the companionship and care of our children. You should see them more when you have time, because once you see them, you will see them less ... "Old people and old people, young people and young people"

In today's aging society, each of us will get old one day. A good old-age environment is not only the construction of the country and society, but also the guidance of the government, the supervision of the industry and the joint efforts of children. However, in a happy old age, the elderly should make their own decisions, and their children give greetings and give happiness!
