Six departments, including the Ministry of Housing and Urban-Rural Development, recently issued the Opinions on Promoting Property Service Enterprises to Develop Home-based Community Care Services, to promote and support property service enterprises to actively explore the "property service+care services" model, effectively increase the effective supply of home-based community care services, better meet the increasingly diversified and multi-level needs of the elderly, focus on solving the problems of life care and long-term care for the elderly who are old, empty-nester, solitary and disabled, and promote family happiness, neighborhood harmony and community harmony.

The "Opinions" require that the first is to fill in the shortcomings of the home community pension service facilities.
