Happy elderly-care service community

Source: Agencies | 00:47 UTC+8 August 29, 2023 | Print Edition

There are 54,500 elderly people living in the subdistrict, accounting for 45 percent of the population.

To better serve the elderly, the subdistrict has realized full coverage of service facilities for the aged in its eastern, central and western areas. There are three comprehensive elderly service centers, five community canteens and 38 elderly activity centers in residential complexes in the subdistrict.

It also has one community healthcare center, 12 community medical service sites, five nursing homes and one daytime service center for the elderly.

To improve the quality of life and safety for the elderly, the subdistrict took the lead in launching a campaign on home renovation for the aged and improving elderly care services in the community.

The subdistrict promotes standardized construction at its five community canteens. The Pengsan community canteen was rated one of the “2022 Top Ten Healthy Canteens of Shanghai Elderly Care Institutions.”

This year, the subdistrict launched an intelligent elderly service platform, collecting data such as the elderly population in the area, and basic information about the 64 community elderly service sites, including day care centers and community canteens.

The platform brings together professionals such as elderly care consultants and practitioners, social workers and volunteers, to form a network for elderly care services, providing data support for optimizing service processes and improving efficiency.
