The Research Of Social Support On Urban Oldest-old

As the decline of the birthrate and the extension of the average expectant life-span, our country has entered an aging society as far back as 2000. And that followed with population aging is the oldest-old aging. Then the oldest-old will increase quickest in the coming decades. During the sudden social is the social vulnerable group for their anile bodies, weakening resistance against disease and relatively slender incomes all of those should be well-researched research. Taking a comprehensive view of the domestic and international achievements in this field, I found that some have touched on this point; however, there are defects, more of less in it. So, for the sake of understanding current social support for the oldest-old and its effective supporting system, we carried on this study which is clearly not only a dynamic to the objectivity but also a supplement and complement for its related theories.In this research, we chose the urban oldest-old with registered permanent residences as our investigative objects. Multi-stage combined with simple random sample was used to choose samples while questioner survey, cases interview and document study were adopted in our material collection. We used SPPSS12.0 to process the date and set up a corresponding statistical database of the investigative results.The survey indicates: the urban oldest-old who have bad health, inefficient material support scanty medical treatment and deficient spiritual aid desire social support.Therefore, we should improve and perfect social security especially age pension system actively, widen old-people's capital source, reform present medical system institutionally, set up the institution of medical for them as soon as possible, strengthen community service, call for love and respect for the old to make them really well-kept, well-replayed and happily-lived.
