Abstract:
Objective:To explore the construction of evaluation criteria for long-term care ability of the elderly suitable for China's national conditions.Methods:The evaluation criteria were initially established through literature research and field semi-structured interviews. Through the Delphi method, 15 experts were consulted and the evaluation criteria for the long-term care ability of the elderly were finally established.Results:The effective rate of the two rounds of expert consultation questionnaires was 100%, and the expert authority coefficients were 0.91 and 0.92 respectively. The evaluation criteria for long-term care ability of the elderly were established, including two first-level indicators of self-care ability and disease severity, four second-level indicators of abilities of daily living, mental state and social participation, perception and communication, and disease severity, as well as 39 third-level indicators including recumbent status, cognitive function, level of consciousness, illness and so on.Conclusions:The evaluation criteria for long-term care ability of the elderly are scientific and reliable, which can provide a reference for the classification of long-term care services for the disabled elderly in China.
