Abstract

Due to the rapid increase of the elderly population, promoted desire for recreational activities in old age and so emerging importance of Leisure welfare facilities for the elderly. Although Senior community centers playing an important role in old people leisure life are quantitative resources occupying majority of the Leisure welfare facilities for the elderly. there are many problems of managing programs, aging facilities, small spaces and so on. So, many facilities are used as simple meeting places of old people without solution about qualitative problem. Also, because of negative perceptions of people about Senior community center socially, desires of using Senior community center of old generation will decrease. In order to perfectly play a role of Leisure welfare facilities for the elderly, we need to review regulations about facility and program of Senior community center and suggest ways to resolve these problems. According to these necessity, Integration senior community centers appeared as a new concept. These centers compensate the physical defects through integrating small Senior community center. Through dividing function and service of senior welfare and forming networks between Senior community center and Senior welfare center, these centers set a goal of increasing quantitative and qualitative improving of leisure life of old people.
