Analysis of Rural Elderly Care Strategies: “Policy Guidance-Resource Integration” Pathway

With the development of China's social economy and the aging population, rural areas are facing increasingly challenging elderly care issues due to labor outflow and economic development lagging behind urban areas. To address this problem, this study collected a large amount of relevant literature, summarized and analyzed existing research, and explored pathways to effectively improve the quality of rural elderly care services. Through interdisciplinary theoretical analysis and practical research, the study proposed the “Policy Guidance-Resource Integration” pathway, confirmed its effectiveness, and elaborated on specific implementation methods and underlying rationale. The research findings demonstrate that the “Policy Guidance-Resource Integration” pathway can effectively address some of the current issues in rural elderly care, offering new insights and guidance for academic research and policy formulation in the field of rural elderly care.
