| Data released by the Hebei Provincial Statistical Bulletin of National Economic and Social Development in 2019 shows that at the end of 2019,the elderly population aged 60 or above in Hebei reached 15,183,900,accounting for 20.00% of the total population in Hebei,up 0.20 percentage points year on year,and Hebei has entered the ranks of a moderately aging society.With natural aging,the physical function of the elderly gradually declines,and their sensitivity to disease,disability and other risks increases.At the same time,the elderly supporting resources will also be affected by their own quality,intergenerational support,social participation,institutional supply and other factors,making the elderly lack the ability to cope with the risk impact,difficult to recover from the loss,showing a relatively significant vulnerability of the elderly supporting system.With the acceleration of population aging and urbanization,the vulnerability of the urban elderly supporting issues has become increasingly prominent.Therefore,the assessment of the vulnerability of the urban elderly supporting system and the analysis of the distribution and characteristic differences of the vulnerable groups can not only present the current situation of the vulnerability of the urban elderly supporting system in our province,but also reflect the difference in the elderly supporting service demands of different types of urban vulnerable groups,providing a micro basic reference for system design and service targeting,so that the elderly supporting policy can be more accurately targeted at the vulnerable elderly population.Based on China Family Panel Studies data in 2018 about the urban elderly population in hebei province and the grasp of the essence of the elderly supporting issues,starting from the basic connotation and characteristics of vulnerability,referring to the methods of livelihood vulnerability research and the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change "exposure-sensitivity-the ability to adapt" evaluation index system and comprehensive index evaluation model,this thesis establish a vulnerability assessment system of the urban elderly in hebei province,respectively to measure the vulnerability of the urban elderly supporting system in hebei province under the various dimensions and calculate the overall score of the vulnerability of the elderly supporting system.On this basis,the vulnerable elderly groups are classified,and the characteristics of different types of vulnerable elderly groups are analyzed and discussed.The result shows that the vulnerability of the urban elderly supporting system in Hebei Province is at a medium and high level,and the differences between different types of vulnerable groups are obvious.In all the samples of the urban elderly population in Hebei Province,the proportion of the high vulnerability of the elderly supporting system is 33.9%,and the proportion of the medium vulnerability of the elderly supporting system is 50.0%,which belong to the vulnerable elderly groups in need of priority support at present.The proportion of the low vulnerability of the elderly supporting system is 16.1%,which is up against some potential risk of lacking of the elderly supporting system and also needs to be paid considerable attention.At the same time,the urban elderly population of high vulnerability of the elderly supporting system shows significant characteristics such as high health risk,high risk of poverty,low education level and weakened intergenerational support.With the weakening of social participation and ownership network,the risk of social exclusion is higher.Among them,the index evaluation results of medical service and social security are generally low,reflecting the insufficiency and imperfection of the supply of the elderly supporting policy and service,which makes the urban elderly population in our province present a high degree of the vulnerability of the elderly supporting system.Based on the feature differences of vulnerable groups and the actual situation in our province,this thesis analyzes the cause of the vulnerability of the elderly supporting system in hebei province,and then puts forward multiple countermeasures on the vulnerability of the urban elderly supporting system from the aspects of improving family supporting and social participation,strengthening the combination of community medical and nursing functions,and optimizing the supply of the elderly supporting system. |
