With the development of society and the acceleration of urbanization, more and more young people choose to leave the countryside and go to the city for development. This has led to an increasing number of older people in rural areas, whose quality of life is not guaranteed.
First of all, the economic situation of the elderly in rural areas is generally poor. Due to the limitations of their age and physical condition, it is difficult for them to continue to engage in agricultural production, and without a stable income**, life is very difficult. In addition, the social security system in rural areas is not perfect, and it is difficult to solve the problems of medical care and old-age care for the elderly.
Second, the spiritual life of the elderly in rural areas is also very scarce. Because their children are absent for a long time, they lack family warmth and love, and they easily feel lonely and helpless. At the same time, cultural activities and recreational facilities in rural areas are not as rich and diverse as in cities, and it is difficult for the elderly to find a suitable way of cultural and recreational activities.
Finally, the health of the elderly in rural areas is also not encouraging. Due to the lack of medical security and health knowledge, they have more physical health problems, and it is difficult to get timely and effective **.
To sum up, the greatest sorrow of the elderly in rural areas is loneliness and helplessness. In order to improve their quality of life, we need to strengthen the construction of the rural social security system and improve the level of medical and pension security for the elderly; At the same time, it is also necessary to strengthen the care and support of families, communities, and other aspects, so that the elderly can feel warmth and attention.
