Abstract

The extreme shortage of old-age service facilities in rural areas in China is in sharp contrast with the growing elderly population, which leads to the increasingly conspicuous rural pension problems. To do well the configuration of medical facilities is very important to the improvement of the old-age facilities system. This paper takes the community as the research area of the town of the pavilion in Shaanxi Province, takes the optimal location of the medical facilities space in the rural community as the research object, and uses the GIS method to optimize the location of the medical facilities space layout. The results show that the existing medical facilities in the store community are too concentrated in the central administrative Region, the overall distribution of medical facilities is not balanced, and the resources of medical facilities in the surrounding elderly population are scarce. The results obtained by optimizing site selection can provide scientific reference for the layout of medical facilities in future research area.

Highlights

  • As a large agricultural country, the number of rural population, according to the sixth national Census data shows: rural population accounted for 50.32% of the total population, of which the rural 60-year-old proportion of the elderly population is more than 60 of the total number of old people in the country 57.13%

  • This paper makes an in-depth analysis on the proposition of the space allocation optimization of the elderly medical facilities in ran store

  • The main conclusions obtained include: The spatial configuration of elderly medical facilities in Ran Dian is not matched with the distribution of old population in the area, and the spatial pattern of demand and supply is not harmonious

Summary

Introduction

As a large agricultural country, the number of rural population, according to the sixth national Census data shows: rural population accounted for 50.32% of the total population, of which the rural 60-year-old proportion of the elderly population is more than 60 of the total number of old people in the country 57.13%. There is a higher demand for medical facilities in areas with an aging population, and the distribution and allocation of medical facilities should take due account of the needs of the elderly population. Domestic research on the health of the elderly has started late, mainly focused on the needs of the elderly health care, utilization and health care policies, the number of research results in recent years has increased, the research angle is relatively single, in this context, this paper chooses the Changwu County Ting Kou Town Run store community in Shaanxi Province as the research object, and carries on the thorough research to the medical facilities disposition and the spatial layout suitable aging service status in the administrative area. The configuration of the existing medical facilities in the research subjects was studied from the perspective of spatial layout to see if the existing medical facilities were reaching the maximum efficiency in serving the elderly.
