Study on the Problems and Strategies of Recreational and Educational Services for the Elderly in Transitional Communities in the Context of Positive Ageing

Abstract

With the aim to address the shortage of recreational resources available for elderly communities in transition, and to overcome the challenge of balancing population ageing and social restructuring across China, this study explores the recreational services offered to the elderly in transition areas through an analysis of the studies conducted on recreational services for the elderly. Besides, various perspectives are taken to examine the challenges facing the Chinese recreational services for the elderly industry, such as service forms and recreational products, which are purposed to promote the development of elderly care services in transitional communities. From the perspective of social work, appropriate measures and recommendations are proposed to develop a forward-looking plan for further research on the recreational services system intended for the elderly in transitional communities.
