This study employed the qualitative research method. The data were from a review of relevant literature, and in-depth interviews with 24 key informants from 3 sub-district municipalities (Tombon), 3 district municipalities, and 3 city municipalities. The results of the research showed that the success factor for a sustainable development of elderly quality life and career opportunity in Thailand was from the integrated collaboration among public entities, private organizations, and civil society.

The main purpose of a model development of elderly quality life and career opportunity in Thailand was to build on existing success aiming to provide excellent service for clients who were elderly and in need of assistance. |
