Objective:To analyze the equity of elderly care institution resource allocation in Northeast China and its influencing factors,and provide certain reference for the further development of elderly care care in Northeast China.Methods:The total amount of nursing institution resource allocation and the per capita old and above per 1 000 km2 were summarized by using general descriptive analysis.The Lorenz curve,Gini coefficient,and Theil index were calculated to evaluate the equity of nursing institution resource allocation.Results:Jilin Province did not have an advantage in the total allocation of elderly care insitution resources in Northeast China.In terms of resource allocation per 1 000 km2,Heilongjiang Province still has considerable room for improvement.The overall arc of the Lorenz curve for allocating resources by geographical area has become smaller year by year,while the overall arc of the Lorenz curve for allocating resources by population has become larger year by year.Conclusion:The equity of allocating institution home resources by population has generally weakened over the years,while the equity of allocating elderly care institution resources by geographical area has generally strengthened over the years.The development pressure of nursing care in Liaoning Province is relatively large,and efforts should be made to enhance the fairness of nursing home resource allocation.
