Study on the Mental Care of Rural Empty Nest Elderly under New Urbanization

Abstract

Today, with the continuous acceleration of new urbanization, the number of rural empty nests is also increasing year by year. The report of the 19th National Congress of the Communist Party of China proposes to improve the basic old-age insurance for urban and rural residents, improve the elderly care system, and ensure that the elderly have a place to take care of. Under the development of this era, it is necessary to protect rural empty nest elderly this group, but we not only pay attention to their material guarantee, but also notice their spiritual care. For the spiritual care of rural empty nest elderly, we should analyse their spiritual demands monolithically, and build a three-dimensional comfort system that is "government-led, fund investment, social worker intervention, self-regulation, and neighbourhood assistance" to solve their spiritual demands.
