The connections between time and space have been studied considerably in quantitative and qualitative research on the geographies of care; however, researchers tend to prioritize one approach over the other. Our article integrates analyses of activity spaces and space–time paths with conceptualizations of care developed in qualitative studies to deepen understanding of the spatiotemporal care routines of older adults in Singapore. Using qualitative geographic information systems (QualiGIS), we develop a comparative frame to understand the differential sociopolitical logics that shape the care routines of older adults who are Singapore citizens and nonmigrants vis-à-vis temporary migrants from the People’s Republic of China. Building on recent writing about care assemblages, we conceptualize webs of care as the interlinked chains, in and through which individuals—in this case, older adults—exercise agency to give and receive care in the context of political, institutional, and social structures. Our article shows how the relational thinking of assemblage theory can inform geographic information systems analyses of activity space and space–time paths. We advance research on care assemblages by identifying in actual time–space how various resources within care assemblages (or the lack of) can diminish or enhance the capacity and resilience of older adults to give and receive care.

在护理地理的定量和定性研究中，对时间和空间之间的联系进行了大量研究；然而，研究人员倾向于将一种方法置于另一种方法之上。我们的文章将活动空间和时空路径的分析与定性研究中发展的护理概念化相结合，以加深对新加坡老年人时空护理程序的理解。使用定性地理信息系统 (QualiGIS)，我们开发了一个比较框架，以了解影响新加坡公民和非移民老年人与来自中华人民共和国的临时移民的护理程序的不同社会政治逻辑。基于最近关于护理组合的文章，我们将护理网络概念化为相互关联的链，在政治、制度和社会结构的背景下，个人——在这种情况下，是老年人——在其中并通过它们行使代理权来提供和接受护理。我们的文章展示了组合理论的关系思维如何为活动空间和时空路径的地理信息系统分析提供信息。我们通过在实际时空确定护理组合中的各种资源（或缺乏）如何减少或增强老年人提供和接受护理的能力和适应力来推进对护理组合的研究。我们的文章展示了组合理论的关系思维如何为活动空间和时空路径的地理信息系统分析提供信息。我们通过在实际时空确定护理组合中的各种资源（或缺乏）如何减少或增强老年人提供和接受护理的能力和适应力来推进对护理组合的研究。我们的文章展示了组合理论的关系思维如何为活动空间和时空路径的地理信息系统分析提供信息。我们通过在实际时空确定护理组合中的各种资源（或缺乏）如何减少或增强老年人提供和接受护理的能力和适应力来推进对护理组合的研究。
