Domestic scholars paid more attention to the management of elderly physical diseases, while foreign scholars paid more attention to the high-dimensional needs of elderly health management and dignity in the management of elderly diseases at home.Conclusions:In the past ten years, the differences in the research hotspots of home care for the aged at home and abroad are mainly concentrated on the nursing level. Domestic scholars paid more attention to disease care, while foreign scholars pay more attention to high-dimensional psychological needs and health level management. It prompts Chinese scholars to carry out research on the status of the high-dimensional needs of the aged, as well as related research on satisfaction strategies.
