Abstract:
“Integrated elderly care and medical services” is a new model of elderly care that relies on medical care as a guarantee， rehabilitation as a support， and combines ongoing medical treatment with nurturing， offering comprehensive therapy. This new type of elderly care model also poses new job requirements for elderly care workers. However， there is currently a large shortage of elderly care workers， along with prevalent issues such as low professional quality， low education level， and an older average age. The main reasons for this situation are low welfare benefits， low social status， and an incomplete promotion system in the industry， resulting in low social recognition of the industry， a shortage of employees， and a high number of resignations. Based on this， it is suggested to expand the number of the elderly care team and enhance the quality of the elderly care team by improving the career development system， increasing salary and welfare benefits， and expanding social recognition.
