- Abstract
Community home-based elderly care services, which are family-based, community-based and supplemented by institutions, have become the optimal path to alleviate the pressure of ageing, and are the focus of China's socialised elderly care system, with the quality of services directly affecting the quality of life of the elderly in their twilight years, and have become a livelihood issue of the greatest concern to all sectors of society. Based on the SERVQUAL model, we divided the community home-based elderly care service into five types, refined 25 evaluation indicators and determined the dimensions, and conducted research on 502 elderly people in Harbin City. The research found that there is a significant difference between service quality perception and expectation, the service quality level of reliability and responsiveness dimension is higher, and the service quality level of tangibility, assurance, empathy dimension is lower. Accordingly, a number of feasible recommendations have been put forward to effectively meet the urgent needs of the elderly for elderly care services.
