SHANGHAI, Aug. 19, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- The 12th China International Exhibition of Senior Care, Rehabilitation Medicine and Healthcare (CHINA AID), sponsored by Intex Shanghai Co.,Ltd, will take place from 7th to 9th June 2017 at the Shanghai New International Expo Centre.
According to the latest statistics from Statistical Communique of the People's Republic of China on the 2015 National Economic and Social Development, China has 220 million people aged 60 and above, which accounts for 16.1% of the national population. In face of the increasingly serious ageing situation, as is pointed out in the Thirteenth Five-Year Plan for National Economic and Social Development of the People's Republic of China (2016-2020), the "thirteenth five-year plan" period is a key window period for the development of the old-age work systems. China should actively cope with population ageing by increasing support to home care and community care for the aged, accelerating institutional development of senior age security system, medical service and employment system and promoting the development of smart home care.
Although continual improvement of the elderly care service system in China, the following shortcomings have become increasingly prominent: the demands for beds at public senior care homes far exceeds the current available supply, high vacancy rate of beds at private elderly care institutions, backward conditions of elderly care facilities and shortage of medical care professionals.
This year at CHINA AID, the speakers concentrated on specific case studies and discussion of Shanghai's pioneering 'mini-care-home schemes' , 'Public-Private Partnerships in Senior Care Development' and 'Integrated Community-based Institutions', whilst also covering other general topics on risk prevention mechanisms in practice, dementia care best practice and other issues pivotal to nursing home success.
The Chinese 'Senior Care Industry' holds huge as yet unrealized opportunities, and for those canny businesses, investors and entrepreneurs currently considering joining this rising tide, visiting or exhibiting at influential 'Senior Care Industry' shows like CHINA AID is the best first step forward. CHINA AID not only offers the right balance of promotional and networking opportunities for businesses, but it is also a platform to demonstrate the outcomes of in-depth research and active exploration.
