A Case Study Of Spiritual Comfort For The Elderly Who Lost Their Only Child In Urban Areas

Since the 1970 s,due to the implementation of the family planning policy,my country has produced a large number of one-child families.Diseases,accidents and other factors inevitably cause some children of only-child families to die before their parents and become the only elderly people who have lost their lives,which adds huge risks and burdens to only-child families.In recent years,the problem of the elderly who lost their independence has become a social problem,which has continuously attracted widespread attention from the government,society and academia.Their basic life problems,pension problems,medical insurance problems and spiritual needs have become increasingly prominent,although with the development of the national economy In addition to the continuous improvement of various social policies,this type of issue has received the attention of the state and society,and many policies and measures have been formulated for the elderly who have lost their independence.The survival problems of the elderly have been relieved to a certain extent,but their spiritual emotions The issue of companionship has never been well resolved.In this article,by consulting the information about the elderly who lost their soles,and at the same time conducting field visits to investigate the real situation of families who lost their soles,we learned that most of the elderly who lost their soles are in a bad mood of extreme sadness,pain and self-blame after losing their only child During this period,they become disliked to contact with others.Even if they finally come out of the pain of losing independence,it is difficult for them to reintegrate into a normal life.Therefore,based on the actual visits,this article talks and communicates with the elderly who have lost their independence,understands their needs and problems,adopts the professional method of case work,intervenes in the lives of the elderly who have lost their independence,and is in the professional aim of "helping others to help themselves".Below,guided by theories of empowerment theory,social support theory,and Maslow's hierarchy of needs theory,through a set of professional methods and skills of case work,it provides emotional comfort and daily support and help for the elderly who have lost their independence.In this paper,through the intervention of the case of the old man L who lost his only child,his needs for affection,respect and expectation are satisfied,and finally the spiritual and emotional consolation is realized for the old man L.At the same time,countermeasures and suggestions are also given to the problems such as limited recreational activities for the elderly who have lost their only child and the lack of public attention to spiritual comfort for the elderly who have lost their only child,so that more people can pay attention to this special group,understand their needs,respect their life,and improve and improve the quality of life of the elderly who have lost their only child.
