Jing'an District Shanghai Promotes "5-bed Linkage" Aged-care Model in Batches

Since August this year, Jing 'an District will promote the implementation of the "five-bed linkage" home and community integrated care service model in batches in the district's elderly care institutions to solve the pain points of the elderly's medical care at home and community care. The "five-bed linkage" is to take "family nursing beds" as the core, according to the comprehensive needs of the elderly's health prevention, disease diagnosis and treatment, long-term care, and hospice care. Promote the service referral, information sharing and resource sharing among family elderly care beds, elderly care institution beds, family beds, medical beds (treatment beds in Grade I and II hospitals in the region) and hospice beds (hospice beds), and form a linkage model of "five beds" that can continue to connect with each other, by allowing the elderly to have access to medical care at home and in the community. So as to truly realize "old people have something to depend on".
