the elderly population has accounted for 14.5% of the total population, how to provide for the aged in Ji'nan? On the 16 day, at the Ji'nan home pension service seminar, the experts pointed out that under the government's impetus, the city is in the city. Home care in the pilot area will replace family support and become the main way of providing for the aged in Ji'nan.
it is understood that a follow-up survey on the elderly population status of China's urban and rural areas approved by the Ministry of civil affairs and the National Bureau of statistics was carried out in Ji'nan in 2010. The survey shows that the elderly population in Ji'nan has reached 14.5%. The 16 - day Meng Qingbin, the mayor of the city center for the service of home care for the aged in Ji'nan, revealed that the population of 60 years old and older in the Central District accounted for 15% of the total population in the district.
professor Zhang Minjie, a professor of public management at Zhejiang Gongshang University, said at the seminar that family pension is still the main way for China to provide for the aged, influenced by traditional culture. However, with the increasing trend of population aging and the improvement of people's living standards, the support provided by family members for the elderly is becoming more and more unable to meet the needs of the elderly. Therefore, it has become a trend to seek social resources support, and the home care for the elderly will become the main old-age mode in the future.
at present, under the promotion of the Ji'nan Municipal Civil Affairs Bureau, the Central District of the city is currently working on the community home care for the elderly, and has established a "happy old home" community home service station in many streets, such as Shun Yu Road, 27 new village and seven Li mountain, and is ready to extend the range of home care to the rural community.
