Core Tip

Core Tip: This study aims to explore the construction path of the "chain + virtual elderly care" service model, by establishing a community resource integration mechanism and a smart service platform, to achieve precise identification of service needs and dynamic allocation of resources. The research focuses on addressing three core issues: How to break down departmental barriers and form a service synergy through the "three social linkage" mechanism, how to use information technology to improve service response efficiency, and how to build a sustainable elderly care service supply system. The research results can provide replicable experience samples for cities of the same type, as well as theoretical support for improving the grassroots social governance system, which has practical significance for promoting equalization of basic elderly care services.
