Abstract: According to the theory of healthy aging, community health education is the top priority of health work for the elderly, so it takes the role of "gatekeeper" of elderly health. However, there are some problems in China's urban community health education, such as the lack of relevance and effectiveness of health education content, lack of human resources support, lack of standardized organization and management, as well as neglect of environmental support. Therefore, to strengthen community health education for the urban elderly, we should start from the formulation of community health education plans, the construction of talents resources, the establishment of grassroots management system, and the building of a supportive environment. By the implementation of these measure, we can optimize the quality and effectiveness of health education, and finally achieve the purpose of improving the health quality and health status of the elderly.
