Shanghai has tried “using homes to take care of the elderly” once before, and the results weren't good. This time the State Council brought it up again for good reason. Now most people are in “4 2 1” types of families. The pressure on those in the only child generation is extremely great, and the costs for the elderly in their final years continues to rise. This scheme for taking care of the elderly can change the situations of old people “with a house, but no money” for the better, and broaden the avenues for taking care of them.
