According to the statistics, by the end of 2017, China's population aged over 65 is 220 million people, and disability also accounts for more than 35 million people. According to this data, China faces an aging population and there is an urgent need for large-scale long-term care. 　　However, the newly released long-term care policy is sufficient to meet these disabled and caregivers. This article is extremely concerned about this issue and looks forward to researching and constructing ethical practices for long-term care of China aging society. let’s examine the current situation of the aging society and examine the level of care of disabled people with long-term care and the elderly in China. We have identified three major problems that arise from the care of nursing homes' restrictive (bed-constrained diapers) model： Unequal distribution of medical insurance involves socially disadvantaged people and the elderly. Improper care of doctors leads to complications such as disuse syndrome. In accordance with the principle of the ability approach proposed by Martha C. Nussbaum, and to review the current ethical issues faced by the disabled persons in their implementation. In accordance with the influence of the claim ability on human survival benchmarks, emphasizing , the care in the concept of justice can enhance human ability. Its capabilities approachis a reflection of the disadvantaged people. It is precisely the nature of the ethical life that disabled people need in long-term care. 　　Therefore, this article uses Taiwan's experience of independence support： to explore the principle of ability recovery, to eat at the table, and to be able to go to toilet by himself/herself was an attempt to solve the three major problems of China's pension institutions. Finally, this article confirms that the practice model of self-supporting by the old-age care institutions can enhance the dignity of life and reduce the need for medical treatment to reduce medical insurance. It is suggested that the Chinese government authorities should actively promote the independence support care model and provide the long-term care quality of the disabled.
