Abstract

As urban aging intensifies, there is an urgent need to enhance community-based senior support systems. Community elderly-assistance restaurant, as government-promoted public welfare initiatives, play a vital role in ensuring basic living needs for the elderly and strengthening community cohesion. Through field investigations and interviews at a community elderly-assistance restaurant in city C, this study identifies key operational challenges like insufficient coverage, uneven spatial distribution, declining user retention rates, and irregular data management. The paper proposes targeted solutions, offering valuable insights for the development of similar community elderly-assistance restaurants in other regions.
