With the process of urbanization, consequences like over-development and increasing population density in the built environment often results in higher casualty of disasters. Moreover, locating at the Circum-Pacific Seismic Zone with frequent strike of typhoons every summer, Taiwan is destined to encounter more disasters. Ageing population, meanwhile, is considered as the most vulnerable population cohort when disaster happens. With the speedy ageing phenomenon, demands for long-term care services increase accordingly. Numbers of nursing homes and day-care facilities in Taiwan has increased tremendously in the past decade along with the disasters happening due to the climate changes. It is the consensus to establish a more comprehensive disaster-prevention planning system for older people and related facilities. However, from 1999 to 2009, only 32 international journal papers published focusing on issues of older people and disasters. Researches discussing the relationship between land use plan of nursing homes and day-care facilities and disasters were even rare. With the increasing casualty reports of older people in nursing homes locating at high-risk areas/ rural/mountain areas, it is inevitable that researchers from spatial planning and land use control perspective should respond to this increasing threat and cooperate with public health system in order to enhance the survival chances of older people under disasters. Hence, this research will take all nursing homes and day-care facilities as research targets. We will first analyze the development history of nursing facilities by collecting data dated back to 1980s. Then, we will map the location data of nursing facilities with different disaster potential data by using GIS to further identify different degrees of risk of existing facilities. It is expected to identify the pattern of current location choices of nursing homes in Taiwan and its correlations with different types of disasters such as flooding, landslide and earthquake. Further, we would like to explore the possibility of creating a comprehensive community disaster contingency system by introducing the idea of “facility localization” and “ageing-in-place”. Instead moving older population away from disaster, this system will embrace the fact that 80 percent of areas in Taiwan are with medium to high risk of disaster and intend to connect urban planning and public health resources to establish a community-based local disaster contingency system in order to respond to a super aged society by 2060.
