The information will aid in our understanding of 14 15 the genuineFor needs ofpeer the elderly, soreview that we can provide only services that will ensure 16 17 comfortable and happy lives for them. 18 Methods 19 20 Sample data from Heilongjiang Province, China was used. A total of 1003 the 21 22 elderly were selected through multistage sampling. Data were processed with Epidata 23 24 and analyzed by SPSS 19.0. Descriptive statistics, chi-square, t-test, and logistic 25 26 regression analysis were used to measure the level of physical health, life satisfaction 27 28 and social support, as well as their effects on the willingness of eldercare among the 29 30 elderly in urban and rural areas. 31 32 Results 33 http://bmjopen.bmj.com/ 34 The results revealed that lots of the elderly would prefer family eldercare. The 35 percentage of the elderly who would prefer to have institutional eldercare is greater in 36 37 urban areas than in rural areas. Factors that influenced the willingness of eldercare for 38 39 the urban elderly were age, house property, and objective support. For the rural elderly, 40 41 having children, living alone, and having house property were associated with the on September 29, 2021 by guest.

For the elderly who are willing to choose institutional 50 51 eldercare, the government should provide some type of economic insurance and the 52 disposition of resources should be optimized according to the demand for institutional 53 54 eldercare. 55 56 Keywords: physical health; life satisfaction; social support; family eldercare; institutional 57 58 eldercare; 59 60 2 For peer review only - http://bmjopen.bmj.com/site/about/guidelines.xhtml Page 3 of 20 BMJ Open BMJ Open: first published as 10.1136/bmjopen-2017-020225 on 31 May 2018.

By the end of 2015, 222 million are aged 60 27 28 years or older, which comprises 16.1 percent of the total population [2]. And there 29 30 were 40.63 million disabled elderly in China, which made up 18.3% of the aged 31 32 population.The problems associated with eldercare have become challenges for both 33 http://bmjopen.bmj.com/ 34 our government and society, since the aging population typically experiences an 35 36 increase in health problems. 37 Nowadays, the main way of eldercare was family eldercare and institutional 38 39 eldercare in China. Family eldercare refers the elderly live in home and receive care 40 41 from their families; institutional eldercare is when the elderly choose to live in an on September 29, 2021 by guest. Protected copyright. 42 43 institution that provides all of their care. 44 45 In recent years, increased geographic mobility and reduced family size due to 46 47 one-child policy have made more adult children unavailable for elder care [3]. In the 48 49 meanwhile, the traditional institutional eldercare service can not meet the high level 50 51 demands of the elderly for the quality of life. Therefore, the rational allocation of 52 53 eldercare resources and appropriate development of eldercare services has become 54 urgent problems. We should combine resources and explore various methods of 55 56 eldercare in order to meet the growing needs of this population.
