Abstract: Home-based senior care in community is the choice of most Chinese rural elderly. In practice, there are many problems in its development. Based on the theory of Service Chain, the paper reviewed researches published on CSSCI journal during 2000 to 2019 from three aspects, including senior care demand, service supply and matching of supply and demand. It is found that the research from demand aspect discussed the demand structure, the influence factor and the demand of vulnerable elderly group. The research from supply aspect discussed the supply entity and the supply model, and the research from matching aspect explored the evaluation of matching degree. Based on these, some future research directions are proposed. The paper provides a foundation for the follow-up studies and a reference for the practice of home-based senior care in rural community.
