Abstract

With the advent of healthy aging, the public's attention to the mental health status of the elderly has gradually increased. Social work, as the most convenient and direct contact with the elderly in the community, has an important impact on the mental health of the elderly in the community. On the basis of summarizing the status quo and problems of mental health management of the elderly in the community, this paper analyzes the impact of social work on the mental health of the elderly in the community from three aspects, and then proposes countermeasures to improve the mental health of the elderly in the perspective of healthy aging.
