| In recent years,due to the sustained and rapid development of my country’s economy and the acceleration of urbanization,the original family system has been broken,and more and more elderly people living alone have appeared in urban and rural areas.Under the premise that the material and life care needs are basically satisfied,the elderly living alone have increasingly strong spiritual and cultural needs.They will feel lonely and lost because they live alone in their later years without spiritual comfort.Compared with the elderly in rural areas,the elderly living alone in urban areas have higher requirements on spiritual needs based on differences in living environment,cultural background and values.The lack of spiritual comfort will have a huge impact on the quality of life of the elderly.Therefore,increasing attention to the spiritual comfort needs of the elderly living alone will help maintain social harmony and stability.This study took the X community in Baoding City,Hebei Province as the survey site,and the elderly living alone in the community were the research objects.Through the method of literature research,questionnaire survey and interview,field research was carried out on the elderly living alone in X community,and it was found that the mental status of the elderly living alone in X community was worrying,and there were widespread lack of emotional support for children,insufficient interpersonal communication and a single form of cultural entertainment.And other issues.The author analyzes the elderly living alone from three aspects: family,community and society,and summarizes the reasons for the above problems: the family neglects the spiritual comfort of the elderly,the community does not provide corresponding spiritual comfort services,and the society does not pay enough attention to the spiritual comfort of the elderly.In order to change the mental condition of the elderly living alone in the X community,in response to the above problems,this article will use the method of group work to intervene in the spiritual comfort of the elderly living alone in the city under the guidance of professional social work methods.A total of six group activities have been organized to help The elderly living alone should strengthen communication and contact with their children,improve parent-child relationship,build social support network,improve interpersonal skills,explore their own interests and hobbies,and enrich their spiritual and cultural life.Under the guidance of social workers,the elderly can obtain emotional support and spiritual comfort through group activities.After the practical activity,the author evaluated the activity,including the process evaluation and the result evaluation.It can be seen that the group members are highly satisfied with the activity,the group goals have been basically achieved,and the group work method is the solution to the spiritual comfort of the elderly.The problem has a certain effect.Finally,the author made a professional summary and reflection on the whole group intervention process,and put forward useful suggestions,hoping to provide experience and reference for the future research of group work in the field of spiritual comfort for the elderly. |
