Abstract:
With the evolution of society, the world has entered a moderate stage of aging. Not surprisingly, the aging problem in the world is getting more intense, resulting in the increasing demand for higher-quality and well-organized medical and elderly care services. To cope with that, many researchers have dedicated themselves to advancing the medical care system based on data or platforms. However, they have ignored the life cycle, health service and management and the inevitable shift of living scenarios for the elderly. Therefore, the study aims to improve health conditions and enhance senior citizens' life quality and happiness index. In this paper, we build a unified body for people in their old age, bridging the disconnection between medical care and elderly care and constructing the "five-in-one" comprehensive medical care framework. It should be mentioned that the system takes the human life cycle as its axis, relies on the supply side and supply chain management, integrates medicine, industry, literature and science as methods, and takes health service management as a requirement. Furthermore, a case study on upper limb rehabilitation is elaborated along the "five-in-one" comprehensive medical care framework to confirm the effectiveness of the novel system.
