Purpose: This study aims to develop comprehensive policy recommendations to enhance the residential environments of elderly individuals living alone by addressing multifaceted challenges through a structured analytical framework. Research design, data, and methodology: Employing Paradigm Analysis and PEST Analysis (Political, Economic, Social, and Technological dimensions), this research identifies root causes of inadequacies in current residential and welfare systems and proposes innovative, context-specific solutions. The methodology encompasses three interconnected components: analyzing digital transformation and technological innovation; assessing sustainability and environmental focus; and examining demographic shifts alongside social polarization and economic inequality. Results: The analysis reveals that integrating advanced technologies, such as smart home systems and telemedicine, can significantly improve safety and health outcomes for the elderly. Economic support through reemployment opportunities and financial assistance is crucial for ensuring economic stability. Comprehensive health management policies, including stress management programs and integrated care systems, are vital for maintaining overall well-being. Enhancing social networks via community-based programs can mitigate social isolation and promote mental health. Conclusions: A sustainable residential environment policy for elderly individuals living alone necessitates an integrated approach encompassing technological innovation, economic support, health management, and social network enhancement. Collaboration among government agencies, community organizations, healthcare providers, and the private sector is essential to implement and sustain these initiatives effectively, ensuring that aging populations are supported and valued.
