“…Once the interviews were transcribed, thematic analysis (Braun et al, 2019;Joffe & Yardley, 2004) was used to analyse these interviews. Thematic analysis which has been used widely by gerontologists (Butcher et al, 2001;Marziali et al, 2005;Webb et al, 2015) is one of the most commonly used methods in qualitative research. Post the transcription of the interviews, the author went through the Years of education Graduation (3-4 years after high school) (20 older female respondents and 5 older male respondents); Post-Graduation (5 years after high school) (15 older male respondents and 4 older female respondents); PhD (5 older male respondents and 1 older female respondent)…”

With the decline of the joint family system, middle class older adults in urban India are increasingly relying on the Self-Care approach as later-life care arrangements. In particular, these older adults are relying on the market for their everyday physical and emotional care needs. Applying the North American Successful Ageing model and the political economy and consumer culture of ageing framework, the present study highlights how the market is creating a new imagination of growing old in urban India. Additionally, through qualitative interviews, the study demonstrates how perceptions regarding the ageing body among middle class older adults in urban India are gradually transforming. Finally, the study indicates how with changing filial and intergenerational ties, familial care is being replaced by the market.

Demographic ageing implies increased care needs, in which social workers play a key role. However, knowledge about their practice is limited and fragmented. This mixed-methods systematic review integrates evidence from 19 studies published between 2000 and 2022 on the roles of long-term care social workers in Europe and North America. The findings reveal that service and case management, direct support, personalisation of care and community engagement are leading roles. Limitations with implications for practice are also detected, such as lack of specialisation, paperwork burden, and work overload, which should be overcome to maximise social work’s contribution to care quality.
