“…Home-based care is preferred over institutional care, including in nursing homes, by about 90% of the elderly, and it fits mainly into one of four categories: daily care, medical care, emergency care, and emotional care [12]. Home-based care, diagnostics, and monitoring limit the financial and organizational pressure on the healthcare system as a whole and on the medical staff members in particular [13].…”

The populations of all European countries are ageing at an increasing age, especially in rural areas, where the process overlaps with emigration to urban areas, which additionally depletes the elderly residents of social support while the ability to perform everyday activities becomes progressively limited with age. A literature review was been carried out in order to identify the characteristics of modern technology-based tools for providing care and healthcare to community-dwelling people sixty years old and older. Home-based care is preferred over institutional care, including in nursing homes, by about 90% of the elderly. Home-based care, diagnostics, and monitoring limit the financial and organizational pressure on the healthcare system. care and rehabilitation procedures are carried out under the direct supervision of specialized medical staff at respective offices or centers while they can be evaluated and supervised remotely, without the need for scarce medical staff to be constantly present with the patient, and without the requirement for the patient to be transported back and forth. The problem of providing care and healthcare to the increasing number of disabled elderly within the constraints of the available budget and with scarce qualified staff can be resolved only through the broad application of solutions based on information technology (IT), which benefit from the dynamic growth of the Internet-of-Things, including the Internet-of-Medical-Things (IoMT) and Artificial Intelligence (AI). This will allow longer home-based care, which is not only preferred by the elderly to institutionalized care or hospitalization, but is also the cheapest of available solutions.

“…. Existing studies show 36 , nearly 90% of the elderly choose their own homes or their children's homes to take care of the elderly, and the proportion of rural elderly who choose family members to take care of the elderly reaches 97%. The overall percentage of seniors who hold nursing homes as the future provider of elderly care services is less than 5%, and the willingness and attitude of rural seniors towards the institutional model of elderly care is even less favorable, with only 1.44% approving of it.…”

Objective China is facing a serious aging problem, because there will be 190.64 million senior people in China, or 13.50 percent of the country's total population by the end of 2020. People who experience the one-child policy have entered the stage of old age Families with fewer children have more strain from their parents' advanced age. Therefore, this research aims to find one child's needs for caring for aging parents. Methods In this study, a total of 279 posts and more than 13,000 related comments were gathered using a Python crawler to harvest data from the Only Child parents' elderly care Exchange Organization group on Douban. The BTM algorithm, a topic model approach for short texts, and the sentiment analysis dictionary from the Harbin Institute of Technology were employed in this study to analyze sentiment. Results in Seven themes were detected by the BTM model. The sentiment analysis results demonstrated that users' positive and negative feelings were mixed. Conclusion Children in Chinese families with one child face a more significant burden of aging out, especially in terms of money, work, and marriage. The time-consuming and laborious care of the elderly puts them under more pressure to work. Therefore to relieve the pressure of old age for only children we have to start from three aspects.

“…On the other hand, China is gradually forming the "421" and "422" family structures, in which two young people are required to take care of four elderly and one to two children. The pressure on young people is consequently doubling, while the role of the family pension is weakening and the number of elderly individuals living alone and empty nesters is increasing [8]. In contrast to the large demand for elderly care, the number of elderly care institutions, facilities, and beds is seriously inadequate.…”

“…The former involves the current situation of the development of the smart health care industry [3], the smart health care models for the elderly [4], the integration of the smart health and elderly care industry chains [5], and the development path of the regional elderly smart health and elderly care industries [6]. The latter includes the construction path of smart health care [7], the systemic system of Internet Plus health care for the elderly [8], the parts of the smart health care platform for the elderly [9], the database and supporting system of smart health care platform for the elderly [10], and the service innovation about smart health care platform for the elderly [11]. In addition, some studies highlight the problems of the platform, such as the unevenness of construction of the smart health care platforms for the elderly [12], the low level of information, the limited number of people covered, and the low utilization of services [13].…”

China has a large elderly population, and its aging speed is accelerating, which poses a significant challenge for the country in coping with problems induced by population ageing. To address this, it is necessary to establish a smart health care platform for the elderly in China using modern technologies. In this study, we analyze the construction background, concept, and development status of smart health care platforms for the elderly in China. Using the smart health care platform established in Xihu District of Hangzhou city as a case, we analyze the construction model and challenges of the platform and summarize the common features of the platforms in China. Moreover, we propose an implementation path for platform development in China. The platform should be built to contribute to the establishment of a Healthy China using scientific and technological means and be based on the interconnection of national health care information and data; service resources need to be mobilized to provide a community-based comprehensive service; remote health data monitoring and health management are required to strengthen information support, and geographical advantages need to be maximized to promote local elderly health care industries. Furthermore, we suggest that China should accelerate the construction of its health care industry as well as the transformation of scientific and technological achievements, improve the health assessment system for guaranteeing the physical and mental health of the elderly, accelerate the construction of the relevant standards system, and coordinate urban-rural development in this industry.
