Abstract

By analyzing the policy texts in the field of geriatric cognitive impairment in China and studying the distribution characteristics of various policy instruments, this paper can better assist society and the government in adjusting problems in management from a policy perspective, and help more elderly patients have a better social environment. The various policy instruments include environmental, supply-side, and demand-side types, each with different proportions. Through analyzing these proportions and balancing the application of the three types of instruments, the quality and effectiveness of social management for geriatric cognitive impairment can be improved.
