To address the growing aging problem, Chongchuan district in Nantong, Jiangsu province has been dedicated to building an integrated senior care system this year, and has established a 15-minute health service circle equipped with complete infrastructure.

A medical treatment station in Chengshan community in the district was established in 2011. This year, a home based senior care service center has been set up based on it, which consists of a residential activity area, a physical therapy room, and a medical workstation, where seniors can take health examinations and receive basic medical treatment.

A total of 93 such service centers have been built in Chongchuan district, covering all communities of the district. The centers in the communities with favorable conditions can provide services like emergency treatment, first aid, and infusion.

The centers provide seniors who are unable to take care of themselves with weekly medical treatments at home, with the service covering 252 residents around the district. 

Local government has offered support to 50 families that have low incomes or are taking care of seniors who are unable to look after themselves.

Private institutions are also encouraged to promote senior care services. Around 10 nursing homes and seven nursing stations have been set up with the help of several famous companies in the health industry, such as Shanghai Brightown.
