SHANGHAI, Aug. 19, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- The 12th
China International Exhibition of Senior Care, Rehabilitation Medicine and Healthcare (CHINA
AID), sponsored by Intex Shanghai Co.,Ltd., will take place from 7th to 9th June 2017 at the
Shanghai New International Expo Center.
According to the latest statistics, China has 220 million people aged 60 and above, which
accounts for 16.1% of the national population. In face of the increasingly serious ageing situation, as is pointed out in the
Thirteenth Five-Year Plan for National Economic and Social Development of the People's Republic of
China (2016 - 2020), the "thirteenth five-year plan" period is a key window period for the development of the old-age work
systems. China should actively cope with population ageing by increasing support to home care
and community care for the aged, accelerating institutional development of senior age security system, medical service and
employment system and promoting the development of smart home care.
Despite continual improvement of the elderly care service system in China, the following shortcomings have become increasingly prominent: the demands for beds at public senior
care homes far exceed the current available supply; high vacancy rate of beds at private elderly care institutions;
backward conditions of elderly care facilities and shortage of medical care professionals,
etc.
This year at CHINA AID, the speakers concentrated on
specific case studies and discussions of Shanghai's pioneering
"mini-care-home schemes", "Public-Private Partnerships in Senior Care Development" and "Integrated Community-based Institutions", while also covering more general topics on risk prevention mechanisms in
practice, dementia care best practice and other issues pivotal to nursing home's success.
The Chinese "Senior Care Industry" holds huge as yet
unrealized opportunities, and for those canny businesses, investors and entrepreneurs currently considering joining this rising
tide, visiting or exhibiting at influential "Senior Care Industry" shows like CHINA AID is the best first step forward. CHINA AID not only offers the right balance of promotional and networking
opportunities for businesses, but also is a platform to
demonstrate the outcomes of in-depth research and active exploration.
