ABSTRACT

The aging of the world population has become a feature of the 21st century, and China has officially entered the aging society in 2003. Under such a background, the construction environment and facilities of the traditional aging communities have been unable to meet the increasing demands of life and spiritual pursuits. Therefore, with the goal of being suitable for aging, it has essential practical significance to provide the elderly with suitable architectural space and social environments and continue to retain the necessary connection between them and society. In this article, we sorted out the practical problems under aging and carried out humanized design research of the health care community to satisfy the demands of the elderly diversification as the target. At the same time, we combined with excellent examples at home and abroad to sum up the optimal aging design key points to provide a reference for optimizing community services and improving the construction of health care communities.
