Countermeasures for the predicament of long-term care services for the disabled elderly in rural areas
With the deepening of rural aging and the increase in the disabled elderly,long-term care for the disabled elderly in rural areas of China is facing a great challenge.This paper analyzes and summarizes the di-lemmas through a systematic analysis of long-term care for the disabled elderly in rural areas in China,which in-clude gradual weakening of family care,high cost of care,insufficient number of eldercare resources,and monot-onous content of care services.It then proposes suggestions including clarifying family support obligations to en-courage children to take responsibility for eldercare,strengthening social security in rural areas to accelerate the construction of a long-term care insurance system,speeding up the construction of rural nursing institutions to pro-mote the deployment of nursing staff to rural areas,and improving the quality of nursing services to provide all-round care services,so that the level of long-term care for the elderly with disabilities in rural areas can be raised,and the basic right of life and health of the elderly in rural areas can be guaranteed.
