ABSTRACT: Improving
the precision of supply and demand of elderly care services is an important
countermeasure to deal with the mismatch contradiction between supply and
demand of elderly care services in China. Based on the investigation of the
mismatch situation between supply and demand of elderly care services in Y City,
from the perspective of social work, and according to the analysis framework of
identifying-allocating-integrating, it is a practical path to improve the precision of supply and demand of elderly
care services by constructing a community-based targeted elderly care service
mode under the hub role of social work stations located in towns and streets. It
is found that, there are three basic elements for the construction of the
community-based targeted elderly care service mode: the life circles of the elderly
in the community are the basis for the targeted identification of elderly care needs; the sense
of belonging to the community organization where the elderly live is the basis
of targeted allocation of elderly care resources; social work stations located in
towns and streets with dual attributes of “state and society” are the basis for
targeted integration of supply and demand process of elderly care.
