| Summary / Abstract (Note) | This article looks at the arrangements for the care of elderly in Shanghai through the conceptual framework of the ‘care diamond’ and ‘continuum of care’. The findings, that are based on fieldwork conducted by the authors in Shanghai, delineate what constitutes care diamond in the city for the elderly population. This is mapped through the levels of care from home-based to tertiary-level end-of-life services that are needed by the elderly population. It also looks at the emerging markets of care in this sector and discusses whether multiple actors providing a range of services achieve continuum of care for Shanghai’s elderly population. |
