Famous singer Lin Yilian sang in her masterpiece "At Least You": "If I can give up the whole world, at least you are worth cherishing." For China's 10 million Alzheimer's patients and their families , the song reflects the predicament they are in. In medical terminology, Alzheimer's disease symptoms are clinically characterized by memory impairment, aphasia, apraxia, agnosia, impairment of visuospatial skills, executive dysfunction, and personality disorders. It is characterized by generalized dementia such as changes in behavior and behavior, which almost means that the patient gradually loses the ability to take care of himself and is extremely dependent on the help of others.
September 21st is World Alzheimer's Day.
There are currently about 10 million Alzheimer's patients in China, and it is estimated that by 2050, there will be more than 40 million Alzheimer's patients in my country.
This is a special group whose number is increasing day by day, and their health and safety always affect the hearts of their loved ones.
For families with Alzheimer's disease, forgetting and getting lost are common occurrences.
After a patient goes missing, family members often try to find people urgently in various ways.
Douyin Tracing (original Toutiao Tracing) is a nationwide public welfare tracing project launched by Toutiao in February 2016. With the help of platform, technology, number of users and volunteers from all over the country, relevant information about lost persons can be sent to mobile phones according to geographic location. The pop-up window and the method of priority recommendation in the APP are pushed to nearby people to help separated families find the lost.
The Douyin creator ecology has developed a lot of volunteer resources for Douyin to find people, and charitable organizations such as Baby Homecoming have joined them.
Since 2016, the project has established contacts with the Ministry of Civil Affairs, the public security system, rescue stations, volunteer organizations, etc., and has continuously expanded the scope of Douyin to find people. So far, it has helped 2,586 Alzheimer's patients go home.
Among them, every volunteer and passer-by is a capillary helping to find people. They are connected and gathered by the platform and technology to jointly help families with Alzheimer's disease find the lost elderly.
When a person with Alzheimer's disease is lost, compared with other lost people, they may not have the ability to identify their own way home, or to fully describe themselves and their family information to others, which makes it difficult to find patients with Alzheimer's disease. Even bigger, the family members or the public security organs alone cannot catch them.
Therefore, it is very important to build a complete rescue network for the lost of Alzheimer's disease.
This requires the coordination of various functional departments and the active participation of many volunteers. As an intermediate link, the Douyin platform can fully integrate social resources and form Full coverage and efficient information transmission, aggregation, distribution and feedback mechanism for the lost.
At the same time, through targeted regional push technology and local recommendations, Douyin Finder can not only help various families find lost people, but also help each rescue station find family members for the recipients, and push them around the location where the recipients were found and suspected hometowns Tracing notice, with the help of Toutiao, Douyin and other platforms, technologies and huge number of users, Douyin tracing greatly increases the chances of successfully finding the lost.
Therefore, we can only see a touching story of finding people.
After the mother of Wuhan citizen Xu Zhijian fell ill, she often went out at night in her hometown. In the later stage, the situation became more and more serious. She couldn't remember her mobile phone number and ID number. If she lost it, she could only contact the police to send it back.
The last time she got lost was in April this year. The lost mother was taken in by a local rescue station. The rescue station posted a missing person notice through Douyin.
Mr. Xu contacted the local rescue station after seeing it, and finally found his mother.
With the help of Douyin, Ye Zeyou from the Liangping countryside in Chongqing also found his lost wife.
His wife with Alzheimer's disease didn't return all night. Ye Zeyou spontaneously searched and reported the case to no avail. The police station asked Ye Zeyou to use Douyin to search for the person. Witnesses replied in the comment area. The police used this to find Ye Zeyou's wife in the bridge hole.
From these two cases, we can find the difference between the new Douyin tracing mode and the traditional tracing mode.
Limited by time, energy, manpower and other factors, it is extremely difficult to find a lost person with Alzheimer's disease in the vast crowd, whether it is family members or public security organs to find people.
On the other hand, Douyin Tracker can accurately push the information of the lost person by region, and family members can tell the details of their relatives' lives, outline the more vivid appearance of the lost person, and help witnesses to provide clues based on this information.
Through video, live broadcast, text and other methods, people in front of the mobile phone screen can feel the misfortune of an ordinary family and the great pain caused by the loss of a loved one to the family. They can inspire compassion through empathy and are willing to help with a helping hand. .
The massive application of technological means such as Douyin pop-up window and precise push in public welfare allows more people to participate in it more conveniently and conveniently, so that public welfare has changed from being a niche in the past to being available to everyone today.
Every time the Douyin tracing platform, users, and various government departments cooperate in tracing people, it will provide a reference for the continuous improvement and upgrading of the public welfare ecology of this platform, so as to continue to enrich and strengthen the public welfare force and tracing efficiency, and ultimately reshape Social welfare, better help people lost in Alzheimer's disease, help them resist forgetting with love and return to their families.
For the 10 million Alzheimer's patients, even if they can't speak or speak, they can feel that the whole world has not forgotten them - everyone is willing and able to provide assistance within their ability, which is the progress of social civilization best performance.
