Core Tip The rapid aging of the Chinese population has created significant challenges for first-generation only child parents concerning their elderly care needs and associated negative emotions. This study therefore assessed the elderly care needs of first-generation parents of only children in a Chinese city, to identify factors that influence negative emotions. Our findings indicate that these parents primarily rely on family-based care, with only a small proportion opting for community or institutional care. The independent risk factors for negative emotions include disability, chronic disease, living environment, frailty status, and family support. Health managers should screen for these risk factors, implement early preventive strategies, and enhance family support to alleviate negative emotions.
