At the end of 2023, a cold wave swept through Xicheng, but the meals of the city's various Huilao Aid Meals were still warm as usual. Ensuring the warm delivery of "a hot meal" is a heart-warming commitment of the "Xixin Xiangban" Huilao meal brand to the elderly in Xicheng.
At half past 10 o'clock in the morning, the smell of food wafted from the meal center in Xin'an Street, Xinwu District. The elderly who were originally active in the home care service center came to the restaurant one after another, waiting to pick up their meals in an orderly manner. "Two meats, one vegetable and one soup, only 7 yuan, we are very satisfied. Resident Zhang Ronghua is happily eating lunch, and since the street opened a meal center, she has never worried about lunch, and she can eat delicious and hot meals at a fixed time every day.

Internal and external linkage
Residential areas are upgraded for the elderly
In September 2023, Gu Yuming and Xue Shunbao, who live in Fenghan Homestead, Zhanjiang Street, Liangxi District, ushered in a home renovation for the elderly. The original ordinary wooden bed was replaced with a family bed, a one-button call button was set up next to the bed, and a smoke alarm was installed in the kitchen. "My wife often uses this call bell, he is inconvenient to get up when he lies in bed, I am sometimes outside the room, as soon as he rings this bell I know that he is calling me. "Gu Yuming's old man is not in good health, usually bed at home for more time, there were no such facilities for the elderly at home before, and there are always many inconveniences for his wife Aunt Xue to take care of, after the transformation, not only enhances the convenience of home living facilities and equipment, but also improves the care conditions.
The renovation of the home for the elderly is mainly carried out from the aspects of physical space, assistive device configuration and intelligent safety monitoring. Xu Jianfeng, a staff member of the Liangxi District Ageing Transformation Project, told reporters that at present, the vast majority of the elderly are still more inclined to care for the elderly at home, and the family renovation for the elderly is to combine the physical condition of the elderly and the actual situation of the house, and the evaluation agency will conduct household surveys, evaluate and design, and propose a transformation plan for each household, so that all kinds of facilities at home are more "adaptable" to the life of the elderly.

In addition to the renovation of home facilities for the elderly, the renovation of the residential environment for the elderly is also "continuing to make efforts".

Make the neighborhood more livable and the home more comfortable. Since 2023, with the goal of building an "age-friendly community", Wuxi has made every effort to promote the "internal and external linkage" of the residential environment and the renovation of home facilities for the elderly. In the next step, Wuxi will learn from the experience of Shanghai, Suzhou and other places, and launch different "transformation packages" for different transformation objects and transformation parts according to the principles of adaptability, universality and diversity, so as to facilitate the choice of the elderly and support more ordinary elderly families to carry out age-appropriate transformation.
Integrate resources
Home care assistance services have been expanded and improved
The essence of old-age care is service, and only by continuously promoting the optimization and integration of old-age service resources and continuously innovating the old-age service model can we further consolidate the basic security of the elderly group.
Approaching the end of the year, resident Chen Xueqin looked at the glass windows in her home that needed to be scrubbed. She and her wife are getting older, and this kind of housework that requires a lot of physical strength is no longer enough. Just when the old couple was in trouble, the staff who provided home care assistance services called**, and after learning about the situation at Aunt Chen's home, the service staff quickly came to the door. "Every month they will call ** to ask what service we need, this time it is almost the New Year, they help us clean the glass windows, and the service attitude is also very good. When it comes to home care assistance services, Aunt Chen and her wife are full of praise.
In 2023, Wuxi Civil Affairs will revise and improve the "Implementation Measures for Home-based Elderly Care Assistance Services in Wuxi City", and on the basis of providing "6 assistance" such as meal assistance, cleaning assistance, shopping assistance, bathing assistance, medical assistance and walking assistance, more than 30 special service guidance catalogues such as emergency assistance, traditional Chinese medicine physiotherapy, and psychological counseling will be refined.

Wuxi Civil Affairs Bureau pension service director is Weiyun said.
Combination of medical care and elderly care
Multi-dimensional solution to the rigid needs of "medical care" for the elderly
The combination of medical care and elderly care is an innovative development of traditional elderly care methods, and it is also the direction of healthy elderly care in the future.
In August last year, Ms. Zhang, who lives in Shili New Village, Guangyi Street, Liangxi District, came to the Community Health Service Center for help, and her wife, Master Su, suffered a cerebral hemorrhage seven years ago, unable to take care of herself and unable to receive professional medical care at home. After understanding and evaluation, the community health service center decided to set up a family hospital bed for Master Su, and the professional medical team will formulate a medical ** care plan for him, and the family doctor team will come to the home to provide services. "After setting up a family hospital bed, the doctor will come to the door, mainly to help with acupuncture and massage, and if you need other items, such as simple blood drawing, they can also provide it. "Since having a family hospital bed, Master Su's ** situation has improved significantly, and Ms. Zhang has less worries.
In order to allow the elderly to achieve "no getting out of bed for minor illnesses and not leaving home for major illnesses", Wuxi City has taken the lead in the construction of family beds in the province920 peopleEnjoy the policy benefits and accumulate the time to build a bed32457 days, the proportion of medical insurance payment has reached, exceeded1,000,000 yuanThe people have truly enjoyed the policy dividend of "home hospitalization and reimbursement", and realized the full coverage of family bed services.
The continuous "empowerment" of community health service centers is like capillaries bringing the convenience of medical care and health care to the fabric of the community.
In December 2022, the Lotang Nursing Home in Huishan District was officially opened, which is the first embedded public nursing home in Jiangsu Province based on a community health service center, providing patients with comprehensive and personalized medical and health care services by sharing medical teams and medical facilities with the center. As ofEnd of December 2023, Lotus Pond Nursing Home has been admitted cumulatively452 peopletimes, among themfor the elderly.
We now call it an embedded care home, so that the elderly in the community have a professional facility at their doorstep to continue medical treatment** and care after completing the clinic**. Xu Guangqing, director of the Lotang Community Health Service Center and director of the nursing home in Huishan District, said frankly that the nursing home set up on the basis of the community health service center can not only provide professional medical care services for the elderly in the community, but also revitalize the idle resources of the community health service center and improve the efficiency of the community health service center.
At present, the city has been builtHomeNursing homes are included in the management of medical insurance designation agreements, and the daily payment settlement is implemented, and nursing beds are set upMore than 280 sheets。The establishment of nursing homes has effectively solved the problem of "no care for the elderly in the place of medical treatment, and no medical care in the place of the elderly".
The sunset is infinitely good, and the world is sunny at night. Pension services are not only a "family affair", but also a "national affair". Wuxi is using the pace of continuous exploration to provide more solutions to the problem of old-age care, so that the old people's life in Xicheng will be more secure, higher quality and more dignified, and the "sunset time" will be warmer and more beautiful.
