First, considering the advanced national legislation, the legal age of the elderly should be lowered from 70 to over 65, so as to meet the needs of society and conform to the world trend.
Two, the types of welfare institutions for the elderly include long-term care institutions, conservation institutions, nursing institutions, cultural and entertainment institutions and service institutions. And give a buffer period, and punish those who have not filed a case after two years from the date of promulgation of this law, so as to break through the long-standing problem of not setting up unregistered pension centers according to law.

Involving criminal responsibility, it shall be transferred to judicial investigation; If the circumstances are serious, give more than four hours of family education and counseling to enrich the tradition of caring for the elderly in China and implement the intention of caring for the elderly.
1987, the Executive Yuan adopted a three-year "Strengthening Care Services for the Elderly" under the responsibility of the Ministry of the Interior, adopting more service channels to deal with the problems of the elderly. 199 1 On June 26th, 2006, the Executive Yuan approved the "Enhanced Care Scheme for the Elderly" again. The goal of the plan is to strengthen the life care of the elderly, safeguard their physical and mental health, ensure their economic security and promote their social participation. The nine major implementation projects are: home service and family support, network system for the elderly, barrier-free living environment and housing, health care and medical care services, institutional services, subsidies and insurance communities, care and social participation, professional manpower and training, education and publicity, so as to build a welfare policy for the elderly that conforms to the social background and world trends, creates health, dignity, safety and happiness in the new century, and implements the government's goal of caring for the elderly.
Current situation of welfare policies and measures for the elderly
Due to the change of family function and population structure, China should give considerable support to the problem of home-based care for the elderly to maintain its function, or help the elderly live in a familiar community environment through necessary community resources or welfare community-based measures, and provide institutional care for those who lose their self-care ability due to health problems and lack of caregivers. In short, whether it is home service, community care or institutional maintenance, we should respect the independent choice of the elderly and provide dignified services to ensure the safety of life.
In order to provide comprehensive services and holistic care for the elderly, the government's health, welfare, transportation, construction and labor departments have the responsibility to promote the welfare of the elderly. This paper only briefly explains the present situation and future development direction of the Ministry of the Interior in promoting the welfare of the elderly. The measures taken by the Ministry of the Interior to promote the welfare of the elderly can be divided into health maintenance, economic security, education and rest, stable life, psychological and social adaptation and other welfare measures, as follows:
First, health maintenance:
(a) Prevention and health care services for the elderly
According to Article 20 of the newly revised Welfare Law for the Elderly: "The elderly can receive regular health check-ups and health care services provided by local authorities according to their own wishes. The items and methods of health examination and health care services mentioned in the preceding paragraph shall be determined by the central competent authority in conjunction with the central competent health authority. " The Department of Health of the Executive Yuan issued the "Health Examination and Health Care Service Items and Handling Methods for the Elderly" on 19871October 28th with Tainei Shezi No.87823 10 and Department Wei Yi Zi No.87032697, which stipulated in detail the items and handling methods of health examination and health care services for the elderly, which could be compared by county and city governments.
(two) low-income elderly medical expenses subsidies.
Since 1 March, 19841day, the national health insurance has been implemented, providing national medical care services. However, in order to reduce the economic obstacles for low-income households to seek medical treatment, the government should subsidize their own insurance premiums and medical expenses (including the elderly); The insurance premiums of middle-and low-income elderly people over 70 years old are also fully subsidized by the government (headquarters).
(C) low-income elderly seriously ill hospital care subsidies
In order to make the elderly get the care they deserve when they are hospitalized without special care and reduce their economic burden, the subsidy for hospitalization care for serious illness of middle-and low-income elderly people is specially handled; Low-and middle-income elderly people receive a daily subsidy of 75% in 0 yuan, with a maximum subsidy of 90,000 yuan per year. Low-income elderly people receive a daily subsidy of 1500 yuan, with a maximum subsidy of180,000 yuan per year. Request to apply within three months from the date of hospitalization.
Second, economic security.
Living allowance for the elderly in low-income families;
In order to take care of the lives of low-income elderly people who have not been resettled by institutions, the average monthly living expenses of each person are subsidized. 199 1 year NT$ 13288, 8,433 yuan in Taiwan Province Province, 9,559 yuan in Kaohsiung City and 6,000 yuan in Jinmen and Lianjiang County.
(two) living allowance for low-income elderly people:
It started running on 1 July, 9821day. In order to settle down the life of the elderly, the average family income of middle-and low-income elderly people over 65 years old who have no dependents or whose children are unable to support them and have not received government-funded resettlement is less than 1.5 to 2.5 times of the minimum living standard per person per month (199 1 year in Taipei1/kloc-.
(3) Special care allowance for middle-and low-income elderly people
According to the provisions of Article 16 of the Welfare Law for the Elderly, in addition to the living allowance and annuity insurance system, the economic living security for the elderly is gradually planned and implemented. In order to ensure the economic life of the elderly, special care allowance is given to low-and middle-income elderly people who have long suffered from chronic diseases, lack of self-care ability, need special care, have not received resettlement, and have no one to take care of them (servants) to make up for the loss of economic resources caused by taking care of the elderly at home. Since 1990, this work has been assigned to local governments by the Accounting Department of the Executive Yuan, and handled by local governments themselves. However, in order to meet the expectations of local governments and people's representatives, the Ministry of Industry drafted the Model Regulations on Self-government of Special Care Allowance for Middle-and Low-income Elderly in Municipalities, Counties (Cities) on 199 1 year 1 month 18 as a reference for local governments to promote this allowance. At present, 16 counties and cities have handled the payment of this allowance.
Three. Education and leisure
Taiwan Province Province has entered an aging society. It is particularly important to arrange the retirement life of people over 65 years old in China, when their healthy life expectancy is sufficient and their average life expectancy is prolonged. Except for some elderly people entering the re-employment market, leisure activities suitable for the elderly are different from those when they were young, and the elderly pay more attention to improving their spiritual life. Therefore, enriching the spiritual life of the elderly will focus on intelligence, education, appreciation and sports activities, taking into account both dynamic and static activities, so as to enhance the adaptability and richness of their lives. In addition, it is also an important topic to educate the elderly to accept the fact of their aging and educate the public to accept the elderly with self-care defects.
(1) Evergreen College
In order to meet the needs of the elderly for knowledge and growth, evergreen academy should be established by using the cultural and entertainment center for the elderly or other suitable places to provide opportunities for the elderly to enrich, re-educate and expand their lives. Learning projects can include diversified courses to help the elderly grow up again and adapt to the changing social environment; Courses can be divided into leisure courses (Chinese painting classes, calligraphy classes, singing classes, fitness classes, etc. ), learning courses (literacy classes, Mandarin classes, English classes, Japanese classes, etc. ), common sense courses (medical and health knowledge courses, legal knowledge courses, etc. ), social courses (parenting education, gender education, marriage and family, etc. ). According to the 9 1 annual subsidy regulations of the Ministry: each class must be filled with more than 20 elderly people, and each class must last for at least three months; The maximum subsidy per class is 60,000 yuan; The maximum annual subsidy for each state unit shall not exceed 600,000 yuan.
Retirement learning activities at the age of 18.
Funding non-governmental organizations to provide learning activities for retirees to enhance people's ability to plan their silver-haired careers and their understanding of related knowledge.
(3) Establish welfare service centers for the elderly (cultural and recreational activities).
In order to enrich the spiritual life of the elderly, advocate proper leisure and friendship, and promote welfare services for the elderly, the Ministry has compiled an annual budget, encouraged township and city offices to establish cultural and recreational activity centers for the elderly, and subsidized them year by year to enrich their internal facilities and equipment as places to handle various elderly activities and provide welfare services. At present, there are 292 cultural and recreational centers for the elderly in Taiwan Province and Fujian, which provide leisure, entertainment, literature and art, skills, further study and social activities for the elderly. In addition, in order to meet the welfare service needs of the elderly, the cultural and recreational activity center for the elderly has also become an important stronghold of welfare services, such as day care, evergreen academy, nutrition catering, home service support center and so on.
(4) Various preferential measures
When the elderly take domestic transportation, enter entertainment places and visit cultural and educational facilities, they are given half-price concessions to encourage them to participate in outdoor activities in various ways, which is beneficial to their physical and mental health. Among them, Gaobei and other cities, as well as Yilan, Taoyuan, Hsinchu, Miaoli, Changhua, Chiayi, Taitung, Penghu, Jinmen, Lianjiang, Keelung, Taichung, Tainan, hsinchu city, Chiayi and other counties and cities, at present, it is completely free for the elderly to take the bus.
(5) Other recreational activities.
In order to add interest to the life of the elderly, the county and municipal governments hold garden parties, evergreen sports meetings, gateball competitions and singing competitions for the elderly from time to time.
Fourth, settle down.
In recent years, in order to stabilize the life of the elderly and ensure that their care and support problems can be properly solved, despite the financial difficulties of the government, the government has increased the budget of the welfare fund for the elderly every year, and actively revised the welfare laws and regulations for the elderly, lowering the legal age of the elderly to over 60, so as to expand the number of people in need of care. In addition, local governments and non-governmental units will be funded to build welfare institutions for the elderly, so as to improve the service quality of the institutions and make the elderly living in the institutions feel the warmth of family. For most middle-and low-income elderly people who are unwilling or unable to take care of themselves in institutions and those who live alone, the government has also planned such service measures as on-site service, day care, nutritional catering, housing improvement, medical care and so on, hoping to respect the elderly to choose their ideal lifestyle according to their own wishes and provide for the elderly. The existing welfare services for the elderly can be divided into home care services, community care services and institutional care services according to the degree of life stability. Details are as follows:
Home care service
Although the rapid transformation of family functions has also been greatly impacted in an aging society, according to the survey on the living conditions of the elderly conducted by the Ministry of the Interior 1989, the elderly think that the most ideal lifestyle for the elderly is to live with their children or live next door, with 69.68% as the highest, followed by living with their spouses 13.29%, while only 5.20% think that they live in a welfare institution for the elderly. In order to enhance the ability of family care, so that the elderly can still live in their familiar environment and get proper care in their later years, this department has funded local governments and non-governmental organizations for many years to actively promote home-based care services, so that the elderly can be taken care of without leaving home and enjoy their old age in their own homes, which is also in line with our traditional filial piety ethics.
1, on-site service
The so-called door-to-door service is to send the service to the familiar living environment of the people in need. Services include (1) housework and daily life care services (2) body care services, etc. In order to let the elderly who stay at home still enjoy the warm care of the government, 2/kloc-0 counties (cities) and two municipalities directly under the central government, Taipei and Kaohsiung, provide home services for the elderly. In addition, county and municipal governments often provide professional training in home service to enhance caregivers' professional knowledge, psychological adjustment and emotional support, so as to continuously provide appropriate services for the elderly. In this regard, the Ministry also allocates funds every year to subsidize local governments to actively deal with it. For the service fee of door-to-door attendants, the hourly subsidy is 18 0 yuan, and the maximum monthly subsidy for each case is 25 hours; The service fee for the elderly in low-and middle-income families is fully subsidized by the Ministry, and the subsidy for the elderly in low-and middle-income families is 70%. Ordinary elderly people can apply to the county and city governments to provide home services at their own expense; For the supervision fee, the highest monthly subsidy for middle-and low-income elderly people is 500 yuan; The maximum subsidy for other education, training or comprehensive activities is 300,000 yuan. Starting from 1990, this work will be assigned by the Accounting Department of the Executive Yuan to local governments, which will handle it themselves. 199 1 year, in order to cooperate with the development plan of the nursing service industry, the Ministry launched the "pilot program of subsidizing the use of family services by non-middle-and low-income disabled elderly and physically and mentally disabled people" in June1year, expanding the subsidy target to ordinary disabled nationals.
2. Establish a family service support center
In order to assist the county and municipal governments to actively promote home-based care for the aged, the Ministry not only issued a letter on1March 1987 17, but also encouraged the county, municipal government and township (town, city, district) offices to generally set up home-based service support centers; As a base for promoting home services in the community, or providing consultation or referral services for family caregivers, and providing relevant support services for nearby family caregivers, so as to provide comprehensive welfare services for the elderly more efficiently. Up to now, 109 schools have been established to provide first-line social welfare services for community residents.
3, low-income elderly housing facilities and equipment subsidies to improve.
In order to encourage the elderly to stay and support their families, we should subsidize middle-and low-income elderly people, and improve and maintain hardware equipment such as bathrooms, kitchens, drainage and bedrooms in their own houses to safeguard their family safety. The maximum subsidy for each household is NT$100,000 yuan. If subsidies have been approved, they will not be subsidized within three years. Renters need to sign contracts for more than three years. Starting from 1990, this work was transferred from the accounting department of the Executive Yuan to the local government, which handled it by itself.
Community nursing service
The so-called "community care" refers to mobilizing and integrating manpower, material resources and financial resources in the community, and providing various welfare services according to the different needs of different objects in the community, so that they can get resources and assistance nearby in a familiar environment to meet their needs. In order to enable the elderly to be cared for in familiar communities and make up for the lack of home care, the government is planning and organizing non-governmental organizations to provide relevant community care services, especially for the elderly who live alone or whose children are unable to provide home care because of mobility difficulties. At present, the main measures of community nursing include protecting the elderly, nutritious catering service, day care, short-term or temporary care, etc. , described as follows:
1, protecting the elderly
Family members' neglect or abuse of the elderly is not very noticeable, and their family safety is very important. Therefore, in accordance with the provisions of the newly added chapter on the protection of the elderly in the Welfare Law for the Elderly, this department has strengthened the promotion of local governments to establish a network system for the protection of the elderly, provided legal advisory services, assisted in physical examination, counseling, entrusted resettlement, etc., and implemented various safeguard measures. In order to strengthen the care for elderly people living alone and ensure the safety of their lives and property, since 1988, the Ministry has provided special subsidies to local governments to provide so-called "emergency rescue connection" services for middle-and low-income elderly people living alone due to physical and mental disabilities, and the maximum monthly rent per person is 1500 yuan. At present, all local governments have actively implemented it and won recognition. The so-called LIFELINE emergency rescue system (Lifeline) includes a host connected to the user's mobile phone and a wireless remote control waterproof and dustproof portable button, which can be worn on a necklace or hung on a belt. When the user needs help at any time, just press this portable button, and the signal will be transmitted to Lifeline Lifeline Control Center within a few seconds through the host computer. Professional nurses will immediately communicate with users through the voice system and get in touch with users. If they need help, they will contact immediately.
2. Day care
For elderly people who live alone without home care or institutional care, or who cannot provide home care because their children are employed, the Ministry encourages local governments to establish day care centers, and their families send the elderly to day care centers during the day. These centers provide life care and educational rest so that they can enjoy the warm care of their families when they take them home at night. Day care can not only enhance the participation of the elderly in social activities and reduce the occurrence of depression, but also provide opportunities for family caregivers to rest.
There are two modes of day care. One is the medical model: providing medical and rehabilitation services, that is, the "day care center" in charge of health units; One is the social model, which provides catering and activities, that is, the "day care center" in charge of social and political units. (Since 1988, only the support type is subsidized, with the maximum monthly subsidy of 5,000 yuan for the elderly in low-income households and 3,000 yuan for the elderly in low-and middle-income households).
3. Nutrition catering service
In the aging society, the average life expectancy of China residents is continuously prolonged, and the ability of self-care of daily life is declining with the growth of age or the influence of health. Therefore, it is necessary to provide nutritious meals to reduce the danger of cooking and the inconvenience of shopping for the elderly. For low-income households and middle-and low-income elderly people, the maximum subsidy of this department is 50 yuan per person per meal, while in order to encourage volunteer service personnel to participate in food delivery service and care for the elderly, the maximum subsidy of volunteer transportation is 100 yuan per person per day. Regarding the way of dining, for the elderly with freedom of movement, choose a suitable place to provide centralized dining; For those with mobility problems, meals will be delivered to their homes. On the one hand, it solves the problem of cooking for the elderly, on the other hand, it allows the elderly to get in touch with society and get emotional support.
4. Short-term or temporary care
When family caregivers can't take short-term care due to illness or some reasons, provide short-term or temporary care to relieve the pressure and emotion of family caregivers and enhance their professional knowledge.
(3), institutional maintenance services
According to scholars' estimation, there are at least 50,000 elderly people in China who need long-term care, and many elderly people are unable to take care of themselves due to the loss of activities of daily living. Although most elderly people want to live with their families (including children and spouses), some elderly people still have to rely on welfare institutions for the elderly. Therefore, how to improve the welfare services of institutions, improve professional quality, ensure the safety of the elderly, let the people feel at ease to send the elderly to institutions to take care of them, and let the elderly who are taken care of be treated with dignity. Are all important topics. Welfare institutions for the elderly are an important core to promote welfare services for the elderly and an important stronghold to provide welfare services. At present, the measures taken by the government in terms of institutional security and service maintenance are: on the one hand, assisting the welfare institutions for the elderly to improve their service quality through incentives, subsidies and supervision; On the one hand, according to the provisions of the Welfare Law for the Elderly, the welfare institutions for the elderly who have not filed a case will be punished, and at the same time, an ad hoc group will be formed to actively assist them to register and protect the rights and interests of the elderly.
According to Article 9 of the Welfare Law for the Elderly, welfare institutions for the elderly can be divided into the following five categories, each with different clients.
(1) Long-term care institutions: The purpose is to take care of the elderly who have long-term chronic diseases and need medical services.
(2) Maintenance institutions: The purpose is to take care of the elderly who have the ability to take care of themselves and do not need technical nursing services.
(3) Nursing institutions: the purpose is to care for the elderly at their own expense or to support their relatives who have no obligation to support or their relatives who have no obligation to support the elderly.
(4) Cultural and recreational institutions: the purpose is to organize leisure, entertainment, literature and art, skills, further study and social activities for the elderly.
(5) Service institutions: The purpose is to provide the elderly with comprehensive services such as day care, temporary care, employment information, voluntary service, home service, catering service, short-term security placement, retirement preparation service and legal consultation service.
The above five types of institutions can be handled independently or comprehensively, and they can charge fees for the facilities or services they provide to help them become self-sufficient. Local governments should also set up and encourage private enterprises to set up welfare institutions for the elderly as needed.
At present, there are 19 welfare institutions for the elderly in North District, Central District, East District, South District, Penghu Home for the Elderly, Changhua Care Center for the Elderly, Haoran Home for the Elderly in Taipei, Keelung Charity Home, Taichung Charity Home and Jinmen Datong Home.
A licensed private welfare institution for the elderly shall be registered as a consortium legal person within three months. However, small-scale institutions that do not accept donations, subsidies or tax relief may be exempted from registration as consortium legal persons. According to this regulation, private welfare institutions for the elderly can be divided into consortium type and small type. According to Article 6 of the Standards for the Establishment of Welfare Institutions for the Elderly, the capacity of small welfare institutions for the elderly │ nursing institutions or nursing homes is more than five and less than fifty. The construction area of cultural and entertainment institutions or service institutions is more than 200 square meters and less than 500 square meters. In addition, the scale of small long-term pension institutions is that the number of people caring for the elderly is more than 5, but less than 50. Other old-age care institutions or nursing homes accommodate more than 50 people, and the construction area of cultural and entertainment institutions or service institutions is more than 500 square meters.
In addition to the welfare institutions for the elderly mentioned above, there are community sanatoriums (facilities) and honorary national homes (rong family) under the supervision of the Steering Committee for Retired Officers and Soldiers. The former is because some helpless low-income elderly people are unwilling to move out of their former homes and live in public nursing homes. In order to cooperate with the 65-year well-off plan of the Taiwan provincial government, a small home was built in the community or village to set up a nursing home, which was managed by the community member management Committee. However, due to the lack of funds and manpower, some counties and cities were either not established or established, but they were cancelled. At present, there are 20 community nursing homes run by township offices in Taiwan Province Province, which can accommodate more than 560 people. There are 14 such families in rong family, taking care of about14,000 veterans. The services they provide generally include life consultation, providing daily necessities such as food, clothing, housing, transportation and entertainment, handling funerals, funerals, festivals, medical care and rehabilitation of the disabled, encouraging the production of arts and crafts, and strengthening the education and entertainment of retired veterans when they die. This is not much different from the services provided by the above-mentioned pension institutions.
By the end of 199 1 year 10, there were 765 legally registered nursing and maintenance institutions for the elderly in Taiwan Province province, with 35 beds and 570 beds, of which 52 nursing institutions can accommodate beds1year and 9 13. There are 17 long-term care institutions which can accommodate 7 12 beds. In view of the increasing proportion of the elderly population, they cannot take care of themselves and must be taken care of, or there is a great demand for long-term care institutions. At present, local governments or non-governmental organizations are being encouraged to actively set up old-age care institutions, and at the same time, they are helping nursing institutions to transform and expand old-age care services, coordinating veterans' homes with spare beds to accommodate ordinary low-income elderly people, and increasing the service volume of domestic old-age care and long-term care. Specific counseling measures are as follows:
1. Encourage the construction of maintenance and long-term care institutions, or assist the renovation of nursing homes to increase the number of maintenance beds: at present, the demand for nursing homes is still in short supply, and the occupancy rate is only about 63%. Relatively speaking, the number of elderly people who need support and long-term care will increase year by year. Therefore, the government allocates subsidies to encourage the construction of conservation and long-term care institutions, and assists nursing homes to improve facilities and equipment, and encourages institutions to diversify their operations.
2. In order to strengthen the supervision and guidance of the old-age care institutions, protect the rights and interests of the elderly, promote the business development of the old-age welfare institutions, and improve the service quality, 1989, according to the Law on Welfare for the Elderly, the Incentive Measures for Welfare Institutions for the Elderly and the Standards for the Establishment of Welfare Institutions for the Elderly, the Ministry has formulated the Key Points for the Evaluation of Welfare Institutions for the Elderly and various evaluation indicators. 1990 From June to September, the welfare institutions for the elderly were evaluated. 326 institutions participated in the assessment. After a preliminary assessment by the county government and the municipal government, the Ministry reassessed it. There are 120 re-evaluation institutions, 16 excellent evaluation results, 37 first-class institutions and 5 special prizes.
According to the "Key Points for the Implementation of Assessment of Private Pension Welfare Institutions", institutions rated as excellent A-level can be given priority to receive government subsidies or entrusted operations; If the evaluation result is Grade C or Grade D, the competent authority shall provide regular guidance for improvement, and may stop the business or subsidy entrusted by the government until improvement.
3. Develop standardized contract mode of nursing service to balance the rights and interests of nursing service providers and institutional operators.
In order to balance the rights and interests of nursing home owners and institutional operators, the Ministry has formulated a "model contract for nursing homes" according to article 17 of the Consumer Protection Law. Once it has been implemented for a period of time, the matters that should or should not be recorded in the contract will be announced according to law. Based on the principle of "equality, reciprocity, honesty and fairness", this model nursing standardized contract has entrusted scholars and experts, and invited relevant units to discuss and formulate its research report, so as to enhance the transaction safety of consumers, safeguard their substantive freedom of contract and prevent the abuse of standardized contracts.
4. Compile and publish the list of elderly welfare institutions that have been filed for public reference.
5, to assist the elderly welfare institutions to strengthen publicity.

Through the participation of people with rich knowledge, experience or expertise in psychology, medical care, health care, environmental adaptation, interpersonal relationship, welfare and assistance of the elderly, we will provide consulting services for the elderly and their families or elderly groups to help solve or guide various problems of the elderly. The selection of Changchun model, celebrating the golden wedding on the Double Ninth Festival, and various activities to respect the elderly, or the Changchun hotline and consultation service center they set up, are all service measures to alleviate the depression of the elderly. Encouraging them and their families to participate in various activities can not only enhance their social status, but also enhance family affection.
(2) Social participation of the elderly: In order to encourage the elderly to contribute their expertise to serve the society again, the county and municipal governments encourage the elderly to form evergreen volunteer service teams according to the Ministry's "Harmony Plan" to contribute to society again with knowledge and experience, enrich the connotation of life and increase social warmth; There are currently 58 teams with 20 or 495 participants. It is better for young people to take care of the elderly.
