Description

The expression "long-term care" is originally from the English language. It is an unavoidable social problem for those countries in which the society is aging. The subjects of long-term care include not only the old, but also those people who need long-term care and professional nursing because of physical, psychiatric or psychological diseases or disabilities. According to the statistics of the Bureau of Chinese Civil Affairs there are presently 9.4 million disabled and elderly people within the whole nation, 1.94 million of which live in the city and 7.46 million of which live in the country-side. Besides, there are 18.94 million partially disabled and elderly people. Because of a lack of social care, the old and disabled affect negatively both sides of their families; therefore, there are dozens of millions of families troubled by the problem of caring for the old and disabled.

However, in recent years, because the population is aging at an accelerating rate, more families have only one child and family structures are changing, so problems of family financial pressure, care institutions and staff expert in long-term care gradually appear. Present laws and regulations are not enough to deal with those problems. Thus, in order to ensure the old and disabled and others live in dignity, we should enact a law to regulate long-term care as soon as possible, by using the power of government, to integrate different kinds of care resources, to protect the rights and benefits of the disabled, and to increase the health of our citizens. 1.
