The pension care industry: there are more practitioners, high recognition

Not long ago, 11 departments such as the National Health and Health Commission and the National Development and Reform Commission issued the "Guiding Opinions on Further Promoting the Development of Medical Nursing and Nursing", and proposed to accelerate the training of talents in the lack of medical and health services, and strengthen the elderly for the elderly for the elderly for nursing disability. Training of medical caregivers and pension caregivers.

The "Xinhua View Point" reporter's investigation found that in order to actively respond to the aging of the population, in recent years, many places have comprehensively approved the supply of pension service talents, and the pension care industry has gradually emerged.

Multiple measures: improve treatment, expand training, and promote "specialization" with "race"

Statistics show that as of the end of 2021, the population of 60 and over my country reached 267 million, of which about 40 million were disabled and some disabled elderly people. Society's demand for full -time pension caregivers is increasing.

The "Fourteenth Five -Year Plan" National Aging Career Development and Pension Service System Plan issued by the State Council proposes that "improve the salary and treatment of pension caregivers and social insurance policies" and "broaden the way of talent training". In recent years, relevant encouragement measures have been introduced to the pension care industry in recent years.

The reporter sorted out the supply policy of promoting elderly service talents in various places and found that the following three aspects are mainly concentrated:

The first is to improve treatment. The reporter learned that some provinces currently have policy support, allowing pension caregivers to gain the benefits of "real gold and silver". "The treatment has been improved in the past two years. Now the salary and post allowance that you get every month is almost 8,000 yuan." Lu Qing, who was engaged in nursing in a pension institution in Beijing, said.

It is understood that since 2021, the Beijing pension service industry will be linked to the professional skills level of the caregiver for the first time, and the pension caregivers who engage in elderly care services with a full -time care service and obtain related qualifications will enjoy the job rewards of 500 to 1500 yuan per person per month per person per month to 1,500 yuan. allowance. In Guangzhou, pension caregivers who are engaged in first -line pension care and 5 years or 10 years can receive 5,000 and 20,000 yuan of post subsidies.

The second is to expand training. Expanding training channels is one of the effective ways to meet increasing the need for elderly care. Public information shows that in 2021, Hebei Province received more than 40,000 trainers during the professional skills improvement operation of pension caregivers.

The "Notice on Services and Economic Pocket Livelihood bottom lines" recently issued by Zhejiang Provincial Civil Affairs Department clearly stated that 6,000 newly added elderly caregivers will be added in 2022. Specific measures such as rewards guide more personnel to engage in pension care.

The third is to promote "specialization" with "race". Since 2022, in China, through hosting pension service skills competitions, it has promoted the development of professional skills education for care for care, expanding the social impact of the elderly care industry, and promoting the innovation of pension care technology. In August this year, Hangzhou, Xi'an, Tongchuan City, Zaozhuang City and other places held professional skills competitions for pension care.

Chen Xinyu, chairman of the Old Medical Branch of the Zhejiang Medical Association, said that the pension caregiver is the guardian of the elderly to build a professional, professional, standardized and standardized elderly service talent team, which is an important guarantee for improving the quality of pension services. Through the combination of competition, promoting "specialty" with "race" can effectively improve the professional skills and overall literacy of pension caregivers, and further promote the healthy development of the pension service industry.

The change appears: there are more practitioners, the recognition is high

In the early morning, Xu Shujie, a pension caregiver born in 1997, began a day of work and measured blood pressure and instructed the medicine for the elderly in the elderly in the elderly in the center of Sushan Town, Shengsi County, Zhoushan City. And rehabilitation training.

Beginning in May 2021, Zhejiang explored the "island branch" model, and Hangzhou, Ningbo, Jiaxing, Huzhou, and Shaoxing, which were good at the professional level of the elderly service, paired 15 Zhoushan remote islands for pension cooperation; From 3 to 6 months, it is one of the island rotation, and Xu Shujie is one of them. It is also the youngest "supporting old" player on the island as of now.

Speaking of why she is engaged in pension care, Xu Shujie said that she was studying a care major. Although she could enter ordinary hospitals when she graduated, she learned that the shortage of personnel in the pension care industry and the government attached great importance to the construction of the industry. , Just join.

"I like to get along with grandparents. They believe you, and will treat you as a family. Every time you give them massage, change the medicine, the old people will always express their gratitude. I moved me very much. "Xu Shujie said.

Zhang Liang, general manager of Zhejiang Ningbo Yoshan Jiaguai Information Technology Co., Ltd., said that in the past year or two, he felt significant changes when recruiting people and employment: In the past, most of the practitioners were rural women in the 50s or sixties. Or technical secondary school; now, a group of professional young people have begun to enter the industry, many of which are college and undergraduate graduates. The knowledge structure is more complete and the learning ability is stronger.

It is understood that the pension service agency has 127 pension caregivers, and about 35%of nurses under 40 years old, basically a secondary school degree or above. "In addition to engaging in front -line pension care work, they can also be competent for the company's training positions, train other personnel internally to make the team skills more professional and younger." Zhang Liang said.

In 2019, the Ministry of Human Resources and Social Security and the Ministry of Civil Affairs jointly promulgated the "National Vocational Skills Standards for Pension Career (2019 Edition)" to increase the professional skills of the elderly caregiver from 4 to 5, and the new "first -level/ first -level/ Senior technicians "level; adjustment of the application conditions has increased the application conditions of technical schools, senior technical schools, technicians, colleges and colleges, or above, and stipulates that secondary graduates from secondary vocational secondary schools can directly declare 4 levels/intermediate workers. "Shorten the promotion time of the professional skills level, open up the rise, and enjoy the regional talent policy through some competitions. It is inclined in terms of house purchase and children. With a sense of honor, I also have the confidence of steadfast. "Lu Qing said.

Let young people walk in and keep it

Recently, the State Council's report on strengthening and promoting the progress of aging work mentioned that my country has more than 190 million elderly people with chronic diseases, and about 40 million disabled and some disabled elderly people. The disabled elderly people have a strong demand for life care, medical care, etc., but the foundation of the elderly is still weak, and the shortage of medical talents and nursing personnel in the elderly.

"Three -point treatment, seven -point nursing", multi -channel expansion of the supply of pension care personnel is an important means to solve the concern of the "silver -haired era".

Zhang Liang said that the gap in the pension caregiver of his elderly service agency has long -term existence, with the gap of about 30%. Although the overall personnel structure has developed in the direction of younger personality, nurses over the age of 50 are still the main force. I hope that the average age of backbone forces can gradually decrease, and the level of professional skills can gradually increase.

Chen Zhenyu, a 53 -year -old caregiver in a nursing home in Jiaxing City, said that he hopes that society can give more attention to the group of pension caregivers, such as providing better rights and interests, purchasing insurance to resist the risk of personal diseases, grant more respect, etc. Can do a good job in service.

In response to issues such as some graduates related to elderly care services to enter the elderly service industry, the relevant person in charge of the Beijing Municipal Civil Affairs Bureau suggested that they set up graduates to join the reward to attract and encourage graduates to enter, and improve the comprehensive quality of the elderly service talent team.

Yang Zhensheng, Dean of Tangshan City Paralyzed Sanatorium, called on the scale of cultivation of elderly care talents, enhance the quality of training, open the growth channel of the growth and promotion of pension caregivers, so that the elderly caregiver becomes a decent and dignified occupation, so that more young people can walk in , Keep it.

In response to the nursing problems of the elderly disabled, Beijing, Shanghai, Wuhan and other places carried out pilots of "Internet+Nursing Services" to increase the supply of on -site care services. In the past three years, Beijing has trained nearly 5,000 medical caregivers, and the city's elderly care practitioners participated in the training ratio of 93%. Beijing grass -roots health institutions use various forms such as smart medical equipment to provide daily care, family beds and other services for disability, elderly elderly people.
