Director Zang said that in today's society, the phenomenon of population aging is serious, young people work pressure is greater, even if the daily life needs of the elderly are met, but they cannot meet the spiritual needs of the elderly, they also need to have their own spiritual life, so the pension service model that integrates "nursing, medical, health and nursing" is more suitable for the elderly to spend their old age. "I believe that this high-quality way of providing for the elderly will become a trend in the future society." Director Zang Chunqiao said.

My son worked in the field, and two years ago, he had a car accident, which caused life to not be able to take care of himself well, and he asked me to move in with him, but I didn't want to leave my hometown, so I came here. Uncle Wang said.
