摘要
1993年台湾地区65岁以上老年人口占总人口比例为7%,成为我国最早进入人口老龄化的地区之一。伴随着老年慢性病盛行、老年人生活方式的变化以及家庭照料负担日益沉重,老年人长期护理服务开始转变为较为严重的社会风险。为此,台湾推行了一系列长期护理服务政策,包括居家护理、社区护理以及护理产业的商业化运作等。这些政策取得一些积极的社会效果,但也存在着"有效需求"不足、长期护理服务投资意愿不强、福利成分丧失等问题。为了妥善解决老年人长期护理服务难题,台湾正在启动长期护理保险的立法计划并组建筹备小组展开前期的研究与论证工作。
In 1993, the elderly of over 65 accounted for 7% of the total population in Taiwan, and has become one of the areas of aging population the first to enter. The prevalence of chronic diseases associated with the old, the elderly lifestyle changes and the increasingly heavy burden of family care, the elderly long - term care services is beginning to change as more serious social risks. Thus, Taiwan implemented a series of long - term care policies, including home care, community care and care industry in commercial operation. These policies have achieved some positive social effects, but they still existed some shortcomings such as ＂insufficient effective demand＂ , lacking of willingness to invest long- term care services, and welfare loss and other issues. In order to propedy solve the problems of long - term care services, Taiwan will launch long - term care insurance plans and the ＂legislatiive committee＂ started preparations for early research and feasibility studies on it.
