With the accelerating pace of population aging in China, various issues related to elderly care have emerged one after another, becoming a severe social problem. Especially against the backdrop of increasing economic pressure, the traditional family-based elderly care model is facing significant challenges and can hardly meet the elderly care needs. At present, the geriatric nursing models are relatively backward, which directly affects the quality of daily life, physical health and mental well-being of the elderly. Therefore, it is necessary to explore an appropriate geriatric nursing model to address the aging problem. Based on this, this paper analyzes and studies the current situation of geriatric nursing models under the background of healthy aging, providing references for relevant research and practice.
