Time bank mutual care model of elderly care, as a new model of elderly service, is an exploration and integration of social resources for the elderly. Based on the perspective of social capital theory, the participation network is the platform for the realization of time bank mutual care, the reciprocity norm is the guarantee for its operation, and social trust is the driving force for its development. From the perspective of the realistic operation of this new type of elderly care model, there are still certain dilemmas in its development. Therefore, it is necessary to start from the three levels of network scope, institutional standardization and trust foundation to promote the sustainable development of the time bank mutual care model of elderly care in the future.
