Objective To understand current status and influencing factors of long-term care for elderly people who lived in rural areas of Beijing.Methods A total of 1022 elderly people (age＞60 years old) were enrolled in this cross-sectional study during December,2012 and January,2013.Demographic information,health status and needs of and intent to long-term care were learned through a questionaire survey.Chi-square test and muhiple non-conditional logistic regression analysis were used to identify the factors that were related to the respondents' selection.Results Nearly 6.6％ (61/1016) participants showed needs for long-term care.82.3％ (841/1013) respondents preferred household-based long-term care,while 7.53％ (77/1013) preferred community-based long-term care.In single factor analysis,education level,occupation,household income,living conditions,number of children living together,medical insurance,pension insurance,chronic diseases and self-report hearing ability,taste and touch were related with longterm care needs (x2values were 33.03,136.17,99.32,88.83,58.07,147.71,108.11,9.85,33.78,30.45 and 22.22,respectively; all P＜0.05).Multivariate analysis showed that occupation,income per capita,spouses living conditions,new corporative medical systems and self-report visual status were correlated with household-based long-term care (odds ratio (OR) were 2.48 (95％ confidence interval (CI) 1.21-5.10),0.82(0.71-0.95),1.64 (1.08-2.49),4.78 (2.93-7.82) and 0.72 (0.59-0.89),respectively).Conclusion Householdbased long-term care and health management system may be needed and chosen by the elderly living in rural areas of Beijing.

Objective To learn current status of health management services in the elderly individuals living in rural areas of Beijing,so as to provide evidence for healthcare improvement.Methods The elderly residents aged 60 or above from several rural districts of Beijing were selected by using multistage random sampling method in January 2013.The health management programme those participants obtained and their satisfactory scale were evaluated.Results A total of 719 of 1 023 (71.3％) individuals had health check-up over the past years.Only 4 subjects (0.4％) obtained mental health management,and 35 (4.9％) finished follow-up studies for chronic diseases.The percent of the elderly who received physical examination,profiles of medical record,health education,medical consultation,health evaluation,cancer screening or vaccination showed statistically significant difference of regional distribution (x2 values were 15.7,39.4,30.5,25.2,24.1,18.4 and 19.3,respectively; all P＜0.05).Sites for health check-up,profiles of medical record and health education were also found to have statistically significant regional distribution difference (all P＜0.05).In ordinal logistic regression analysis,age,occupation,health insurance,self health assessment and health medical affected satisfaction of the respondents with health management.Conclusions Our investigation shows a gap between current health management programme and national standard requirement for equal public health services,and the elderly's satisfaction with health management needs to be improved.
