According to the national bureau of statistics,China's urbanization rate was only 17.9 percent at the beginning of the reform and opening up.It broke through 50.0 percent for the first time in 2011 and reached 60.6 percent in 2019.With the rapid advancement of urbanrural integration,rural land has been requisitioned for compensation,and the houses of rural farmers have been demolished and settled in a centralized way,resulting in more and more resettlement communities.In general,each family in the resettlement community can be assigned to at least two houses.Most of the elderly choose to live separately from their adult children,resulting in a large number of elderly people living alone.These old people are in the transition from rural life to urban life,their traditional production methods and living habits are cut off,the inherent rural interpersonal network is broken,and the familiar tradition is gradually renewed by the new environment.It is inevitable that some psychological burdens will arise,such as a sense of distance,a sense of helplessness and a sense of maladjustment.In the 13th five-year plan for the development of China's undertakings for the aged and the construction of the old-age care system,the state council predicted that by the 2020s,the total number of elderly people living alone and empty-nesters in China will increase to 118 million,accounting for 52.4 percent of the elderly population over the age of 60.With the development of modernization and the constant change of population and family structure,the scale of the elderly group living alone will become larger and larger.Elderly people living alone have common needs in different aspects such as physical health,elderly life and spiritual care.Most elderly people living alone want more spiritual comfort to ease the uncomfortable feeling of living alone,which should naturally attract social attention.With the gradual increase of the number of elderly people living alone,how to make elderly people living alone live happily and peacefully in their old age,especially after the demolition and resettlement of elderly people living alone in communities,and the material life has been effectively taken care of,how to obtain the necessary spiritual consolation has become one of the focuses of social workers.This study eight fang huayuan community in nanjing city as the research object in the elderly who live alone,in combing the resettlement community present research status and the elderly,the elderly spiritual solace spiritual solace ascension path,on the basis of three aspects,such as literature,through questionnaires and interviews and other research methods,from the demand of self-esteem,emotional needs,interpersonal communication and entertainment needs such as dimension,the aromatic huayuan community living alone the spiritual comfort of old people present situation investigation,discovered that fang huayuan the life of the aged community community living subsidies are relatively high,the individual life self-care ability is good,but fang huayuan the elderly spiritual solace disparity in the demand and supply.Secondly,according to the survey score,spiritual solace in solitary old man to form a "warming Yang" under standard working group,using social support theory and group dynamics theory,the deep exploration of aromatic huayuan community eight solitary elderly spiritual solace the status quo,found that lack of spiritual solace status quo of team members,the main cash for demand lacking self-esteem,inadequate demand insufficiency,the interpersonal emotion demand and single recreational demand.Thirdly,in the practical process of social work,this study used group work to carry out spiritual consolation service for elderly people living alone.The development mode was selected as the main mode basis for spiritual consolation.Based on the set group goals,8 activities were designed to enrich the spiritual consolation for group members.In the early stage of group work intervention,we carried out two group activities of "new and old neighbors" and "more interesting dialects" to assist team members in identifying group attributes,clarifying group activity objectives and exploring group norms.In group work in the middle of the design to carry out the "fun"grape,"happy family",and other five activities,lead team members to lay down their camouflage mood and limited and conduct day-to-day work and life,through the development of the 7 times in group activities,the group's self-esteem needs,emotional support,interpersonal and recreational needs,are improved to a certain extent;In the later stage of the intervention,through the separation activity of the ritual sense of "loving each other as a family",the separation emotion was dealt with,the group activities were reviewed and summarized,and the group service effect was tested and consolidated.Finally.through the evaluation of practical results and the survey of satisfaction,it was found that the scores of team members in self-esteem needs,emotional support,interpersonal communication needs and leisure and entertainment were improved to different degrees,and the spiritual comfort scores of team members were in the middle and upper level of the elderly living alone in the community as a whole.Therefore,the group work is effective in improving the spiritual comfort of the elderly living alone in the relocation community.However,in order to better solve the spiritual consolation problem of the elderly living alone in the resettlement community,the government and the community should interact with each other,so as to fully realize the enjoyment of the elderly,the support of the elderly and the action of the elderly.
