Song Nini takes care of the elderly.
After my grandfather died, my grandmother ran away from home, leaving behind 3 young children, and my father was only 8 years old at the time. My father made a living by repairing bicycles, and when I was in the fifth grade, he found his half-dead grandmother in a village in Qingyang, took her home, and took care of her until she died. His father was not good at words, but he interpreted filial piety with practical actions. Since then, the seeds of love and respect for the elderly have taken root in my heart. The person who said this is called Song Nini, the founder of the Love Nursery School in Qilihe District, and she has been on the road of pension for nearly ten years.
The caring nursery for the elderly has "good food and good service".
Song Nini is a post-80s generation, in most people's impression, few young people are willing to engage in the pension industry, but Song Nini chose to start a business in the pension industry in her early 20s.
It's pitiful that people have no one to take care of them when they're old, and if I can let the old people have something to care for, rely on, and enjoy when they're old, that's a wonderful thing. Song Nini said that in August 2014, the entrepreneurial project was officially launched, "The initial idea was to do family-style elderly care, just like kindergartens, where the elderly come to me for dinner and leisure during the day and go home at night." In the specific operation process, the relevant departments suggested that I open a nursery for the elderly, and if the elderly are willing, they can stay with me at night. As a result, the love entrusted to the old has a prototype. ”
The start was difficult, she rented a room, hired a nurse and a cook, and no one showed up for 3 months. She placed an advertisement in this newspaper, and Uncle Zhang, who was 78 years old at the time, became her first customer. Since then, the good reputation of "good food and good service" has spread among the elderly, and more and more elderly people have come to her, and the supply of beds exceeds the demand. In the past ten years, Song Nini has served more than 600 elderly people.
Give care and attention with heart.
In May this year, Grandpa Wang, who had lived in the Love Nursery for 5 years, was 72 years old, and Song Nini led the staff to hold a warm birthday banquet for the elderly. Wearing a birthday hat and eating the birthday cake sent by Song Nini, the old man was so happy that he couldn't keep talking: "Thank you, this is my home." The old man's recognition made Song Nini very pleased.
In order to make the old people happy, Song Nini will find ways to hold various theme activities: holding a catwalk show for the old couples in the nursery, rehearsing sitcoms for the old people, holding energetic sports meetings, indoor makeup dances, painting competitions, handicraft competitions, etc., so that the old people's later life is rich and colorful. "Here, we not only provide basic daily care for the elderly, but also take care of them with our hearts," Song said. ”
Song Nini said: "We have a lot of elderly people with dementia, who are more difficult to take care of than children, scolding, beating, not eating well, going home noisy, and not liking to take a bath and wash their feet......To treat such an elderly person, there must be enough patience and love. ”
There are many motivations that support Song Nini to move forward, and the recognition of the old man is one of them. In the nursery, the old man's vexatious troubles are all manifestations of the old man's desire for comfort and attention in Song Nini's view. Now Song Nini has long been Xi and can smoothly deal with various emergencies of the elderly.
Over the years, Song Nini has sent away nearly 100 elderly people. She said that in fact, every elderly person is her own relatives, taking care of them and sending them away is her career and her mission, "Since I am engaged in the pension business, then I will do my filial piety for the children of the world and accompany all the old people who are destined to come here." ”
