BACKGROUND In China today, the aging of the population is becoming more and more serious and has gradually become an important social problem. The existing pension model can not solve the problems caused by the aging population. In response to this problem, we launched a study to explore the key issues in the lives of older people and try to find existing problems that can be redesigned in the hope of helping the elderly improve their quality of life and reduce social pressure.
