Abstract:

In recent years, a large number of communities referring from the United States’ Communities Continuous Care Retirement Community (CCRC) have sprung up in China, which gradually shows the unsatisfied problems in design, use and management by directly applying the American model. Japan has also experienced the path of learning from the CCRC model of the United States. From the prototype of CCRC to the preliminary proposal of the “Japanese version of CCRC”, then to the planning framework of the “lifelong active community”, the process of Japan’s localization of the CCRC model is worth reference. Starting from the development background and characteristics of CCRC in the United States, this paper focuses on analyzing how Japan aimed at its own problems, established multi-level administrative systems, flexibly invoked and combined existing policies, carried out promoting approaches according to practical feedback, and finally formed a localized CCRC model with obtaining clear orientation, responding to national differences, rooting in local resources and strengthening characteristics. This study also summarizes those can be served for reference.
