Not in favor of sending parents to nursing homes?

In the debate against sending parents to nursing homes, two or three questions can be raised: Does China have the realistic conditions to send parents to nursing homes at present, and is it satisfactory for the elderly to live in nursing homes?

1. Does China have the realistic conditions to send parents to nursing homes at present? First, the bed. China Radio Network reported that there are only 15.9 beds for every thousand elderly people. It can be seen that the bed gap is large, the number of public nursing homes is small, and public nursing homes with high quality and low price are hard to find.

Followed by nursing staff. The number of nursing staff is not only small, but Wang, director of the Social Welfare and Philanthropy Promotion Department of the Ministry of Civil Affairs, said that the phenomenon of population aging in China is getting more and more serious, but the scale and professional level of nursing staff for the aged can not adapt to this grim reality. At present, China needs at least100000 elderly nurses. The quality of nursing staff also needs to be worried.

2. Is the current situation of the elderly living in nursing homes satisfactory? First, psychological aspects. According to the survey data of the living conditions of the rural elderly in China Agricultural University in 2006, 70.8% of the rural elderly choose "family pension", 15. 1% choose "self-pension", and only 7.5% choose to go to nursing homes.

Followed by nursing services. In nursing homes, facilities and services can't keep up, and it is not uncommon for the elderly to get comprehensive care. For example, I fell twice, resulting in a fracture, and I was sent to the hospital five days after the burn.

After the second and third debates, four debates can give a conclusive conclusion:

Home-based care for the aged supplemented by other ways is more in line with the current social situation.

The Blue Book of China's Development Report on the Cause of Aging released on 20 13 points out that the ideal pension model is based on self-help and family pension, with community home service, apartment service and day care service as the main service modes.

Supported by residential service, supplemented by neighborhood service and voluntary service, China's characteristic old-age service system. Since 1980s, in Europe, the birthplace of the old-age security system.

Traditional nursing homes are gradually being ignored, and governments all over the world have invested more money and manpower in infrastructure and comprehensive services, so that the elderly can enjoy their old age in their familiar families, communities and other environments.
