Caring for the elderly

China has about 42,300 elderly care facilities nationwide, with a capacity of more than 4.29 million beds, according to statistics released by the Ministry of Civil Affairs yesterday.

The elderly care institutions across the country provide accommodation for nearly 2.15 million elderly people, said Li Banghua, an official with the MCA.
