To investigate the perceptions and attitudes of Chengdu residents toward "medical and aged care" integrated models and associated factors.
A cross-sectional questionnaire survey was conducted in 935 residents who were 45 years or older in 8 communities in Chengdu. Descriptive analyses and logistic binary regression analyses were performed.
About 91.1% of respondents preferred self-care and family support, and only 8.9% preferred community and institutional care. About 84.9% of respondents reported no knowledge about the "medical and aged care" integrated models, and 15.1% had some basic understanding of the integrated care models. Middle-aged respondents were more likely to understand the integrated care models than their older counterparts, with 21.7% willing to endorse the integrated care models. The logistic regression analyses showed that age, educational attainment, marital status, chronic illness, available financial support, and knowledge and awareness were associated with the choice.
Chengdu residents have low level of knowledge and awareness of the "medical and aged care" integrated models. Public education is needed to promote the new aged care models.
调查成都居民对“医养结合”模式的认知和态度及其相关因素。
对成都市8个社区935名45岁及以上居民进行横断面问卷调查。进行描述性分析和二元逻辑回归分析。
约91.1%的受访者倾向于自我照顾和家庭支持，只有8.9%的受访者倾向于社区和机构照顾。约84.9%的受访者表示对“医养结合”模式不了解，15.1%的受访者对综合照护模式有一定的基本了解。中年受访者比老年受访者更有可能了解综合照护模式，有21.7%的人愿意认可综合照护模式。逻辑回归分析表明，年龄、教育程度、婚姻状况、慢性病、可用经济支持以及知识和认知与选择有关。
成都居民对“医养结合”模式的知识和认知水平较低。需要开展公众教育以推广新型养老模式。
