The entry reasons and location selection of elderly residents in the elderly housing with supportive services in Japan:Based on survey data of elderly residents in Gihu,Aichi and Tokyo
As the increasingly severe aging in China,it is difficult for children to take care of their parents independently,so the importance of the elderly housing becomes prominent.Through a questionnaire survey of the elderly living in the elderly housing with supportive services in Gihu,Aichi and Tokyo,Japan,the reasons for the elderly to choose to live in the elderly housing with supportive services were analyzed.The results show that the elderly attach importance to the factors close to their own and their children's residence when choosing the elderly housing with supportive services,and the same trend is shown in the actual use.In cities with different urbanization levels,the degree of nursing care of the elderly,the entry reasons,and the mode of the elderly housing location selection show differences.For example,firstly,In Gifu and Aichi,having a higher proportion of elderly who are sick and unable to take care of themselves.While in Tokyo,self-care elderly are mostly,the prevalence rate is relatively low,and relatively healthy women and single elderly show more trends.Secondly,the elderly surveyed in Gihu value factors such as"close to their children's residence","close to their own residence"and"recommendation from family members",the elderly surveyed in Aichi value factors of"recommendation from family members","good barrier-free environment"and"low charge",while the elderly surveyed in Tokyo value factors of"staff has a good attitude"and"close to their children's residence".Thirdly,when the residence of the elderly and their children are located in the same urban town,the proportion of the elderly living in the elderly housing with supportive services of the same urban town is the highest,and this feature shows a decreasing trend with the improvement of urbanization level.However,when the residence of the elderly and their children are located in the different urban town,the elderly surveyed in Gihu and Aichi tend to live in the elderly housing closer to their own residence,and this feature is more obvious in Aichi,while the opposite trend is shown in Tokyo.Therefore,when planning and constructing the elderly housing,it is necessary to grasp the common needs and the special needs of different cities,so as to reasonably plan the residence of the elderly housing and achieve effective supply on demand.For example,in metropolitan areas represented by Tokyo,consideration should be given not only to the proximity to the children's residence,but also to the reality that the majority of self-care elderly.On the one hand,the service content should be continuously enriched and improved to meet the diversified needs of self-care elderly,On the other hand,more attention should be paid to the improvement of service quality and service attitude of the staff.In urban areas represented by Aichi,consideration should be given to the relationship between the residence of children and the elderly housing,so as to improve the occupancy rate.In addition,attention should also be paid to the barrier-free environment of the elderly housing,as well as the reasonable setting of the charge standard according to the income level of the elderly in the region.In local areas represented by Gifu,while paying attention to the relationship between the residence of the elderly housing and the residence of the elderly and their children,it should also actively enrich and improve medical and nursing services.With reference to the current status of the planning and construction of the elderly housing with supportive services in Japan,combined with the research results of this article,the following opinions are put forward for the planning and construction of the elderly housing in China.First of all,in the near future,the influence of"one-child policy"will gradually appear,and one young couples will face the problem of caring for four elderly.It can be inferred from this that when the elderly use the elderly housing,the tendency to choose the elderly housing closer to their own and their children's residence will be more pronounced.Therefore,when planning the elderly housing,appropriate consideration should be given to such conditions to meet the needs of both the elderly and children.Secondly,in China,due to the large area of the country,the level of urbanization and lifestyles vary between regions,so when planning and constructing the elderly housing,it should fully consider the differences of each region,based on the aging of the region,the status quo and the diversified care service needs of the elderly realize the effective supply of the elderly housing.Under the social background of China's increasingly severe aging degree,discussing the planning and construction strategies of the elderly housing with supportive services in Japan,and drawing lessons from it,has important enlightenment significance for improving the planning and construction of elderly housing in China and realizing the high-quality development of the quality of life of the elderly.
