数字化赋能农村智慧养老服务的优化路径研究

Research on the Optimization Paths of Digital Empowerment of Rural Smart Elderly Care Services

摘要: 在人口老龄化与城乡发展不平衡的双重背景下，农村养老服务体系面临家庭功能弱化、公共服务不足、资源分布不均以及农村人口高龄化、空巢化等多重困境。数字化技术凭借高效连接、智能分析与资源优化配置能力，为农村智慧养老服务提质升级提供了关键支撑，也为重构农村养老服务体系带来新可能。数字化赋能成效显著，通过优化资源配置、拓展服务边界、提升服务效率，有效缓解了农村养老服务供给差异，对提升农村养老服务可及性和精准度，推动城乡养老服务均衡发展、实现积极老龄化目标意义重大。当前数字基础设施下沉、服务平台建设等实践取得一定进展，然而数字化赋能农村智慧养老仍面临挑战，存在数字鸿沟加深、技术适配不足、人才短缺等问题。本文基于智慧养老与数字赋能理念，梳理数字化技术应用现状与作用机制，从适老化数字基建、人才培育、产业生态重构等维度构建优化路径，推动农村智慧养老服务高质量发展。

Abstract: Under the dual background of population aging and unbalanced urban-rural development, the rural elderly care service system is facing multiple dilemmas, including the weakening of family functions, insufficient public services, uneven distribution of resources, and the aging and empty-nest phenomenon of the rural population. Digital technology, relying on its capabilities of efficient connection, intelligent analysis and optimal resource allocation, provides key support for the quality improvement and upgrading of rural smart elderly care services, and also brings new possibilities for reconstructing the rural elderly care service system. Digital empowerment has achieved remarkable results: by optimizing resource allocation, expanding service boundaries and improving service efficiency, it effectively alleviates the differences in the supply of rural elderly care services, and is of great significance for enhancing the accessibility and precision of rural elderly care services, promoting the balanced development of urban and rural elderly care services, and achieving the goal of active aging. At present, certain progress has been made in practices such as the sinking of digital infrastructure and the construction of service platforms; however, digital empowerment of rural smart elderly care still faces challenges, including the deepening digital divide, insufficient technological adaptation and shortage of talent. Based on this, this study, guided by the concepts of smart elderly care and digital empowerment, sorts out the application status and mechanism of digital technology, and constructs optimization paths from the dimensions of aging-appropriate digital infrastructure, talent cultivation and industrial ecological reconstruction, so as to promote the high-quality development of rural smart elderly care services.
