In this year's (2022) Mid-Autumn Festival, the Taoyuan Honorary National Home held a Mid-Autumn Festival Gala, in order to allow the grandparents of the National Home to relive their youthful and passionate times, they found hot young female dancers to dance in front of the grandparents, and the hot female dancers even once grabbed the grandparents' hands and touched their own breasts, and the atmosphere on the field was high to the heights of the grandparents, and the grandparents called out repeatedly, and even some of the grandparents were touched and burst into tears, saying that The first time I saw the movie, I was so happy that I hadn't been so happy for several years.
This activity has triggered a great deal of discussion in the outside world, and the positive and negative positions are very different. Dr. Jiang Guanyu, a physician at North City United Hospital's Zhongxing Hospital, said that if the activity can stimulate blood circulation in the brain, increase appetite and exercise tolerance, it can also gradually increase the immune system of the elderly. On the other hand, there are voices that say the activity is too stimulating for the elderly and may increase the risk of cardiovascular disease, making it difficult to assign blame in the event of a death caused by over-stimulation. As a result, the incident has been hotly debated on the Internet, and nursing home operators have rushed to apologize.
The Spice Girls Dance event may have been a bit extreme, but the starting point was to let the elders recall their youthful memories and add some color to their boring sanatorium life. Taiwan will enter an ultra-aging society in 2025, with one in five people over the age of 65. When people enter the stage of aging, their physical and mental abilities will gradually deteriorate, which is a bit hard to accept for some of them, so they choose to shut themselves up in the memories of their youth, remembering the sweet and sour of their years, only to come back to the reality of infinite sadness. In the face of aging, there is not only one way to reminisce about the past, but also to continue to inject new nutrients into the old soul.

Day care service is one of the new models of care, allowing the elderly to come to the institution during the day but not overnight, and be taken care of by a professional care team, with the freedom to choose between morning, afternoon, or full-day shifts, focusing on the promotion of the health of the elderly, with the focus on slowing down or maintaining the physical and cognitive functions of the elderly. Some day care centers are located near schools, and through learning about intergenerational integration, young children are allowed to come to the day care centers to accompany the elders to study and attend classes.
