"None" elderly people are included in the support of the destitute.
Since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, my country’s rural elderly care services have basically formed a development pattern in which family elderly care is the basic method, the elderly in special difficulties are the focus of service security, the mutual assistance elderly care services are the innovation direction, and the services are continuously expanded for all rural elderly.

A multi-level service network has been initially constructed; social service coverage projects have been implemented, and 3.88 million urban and rural "three-nos" elderly people have been included Specially poor support, to achieve all the necessary support, 13.35 million elderly people in financial difficulties are included in the rural minimum guarantee; the implementation of the reform and upgrading project of support service facilities (nursing homes) for the extremely poor people, the legal person registration rate of rural nursing homes has increased from less than 75% to more than 90%; nationwide Basically, a care and service system for the left-behind elderly in rural areas has been established, an information management platform has been built, and regular visits have generally been implemented.
At present, there are still serious problems such as the serious aging of the rural population, the weakening of the family's ability to provide for the elderly, the inadequate pension insurance for farmers, the incomplete rural elderly care service facilities, the sustainability of the operation of elderly care services, and insufficient supervision.
