- Abstract
Given the increasing severity of China’s aging society and its potential intensification, it is expected that more two-elderly families will face the dual challenges of elderly care and guardianship in the future. However, the current domestic social work system has not yet fully adapted to the specific needs of this special group, and there is an urgent need to develop more precise and comprehensive intervention measures and support strategies. This study took the two-elderly families pilot project implemented by Guangzhou Y Institution as the research object, and used the social support theory framework to deeply analyze the multidimensional needs of two-elderly families with mental disabilities. On this basis, this paper proposes a comprehensive service intervention model covering three key dimensions: “professional services”, “community support” and “policy advocacy”, aiming to provide more systematic and effective social support for two-elderly families in order to improve their overall well-being and quality of life.
