[Explanation] During the epidemic prevention period, the elderly in nursing homes were especially cared.

Recently, the Jiangsu Provincial Department of Civil Affairs issued the latest notice on the epidemic prevention of elderly care institutions during the Spring Festival in 2021, stating that during the Spring Festival, elderly care institutions and welfare homes are key places and in principle closed management.

From January 17 to 18, reporters from China News Agency visited a number of elderly care institutions in Nanjing to learn about the latest epidemic prevention measures.

  [Explanation] The Ginkgo Tree Elderly Service Center, located on Fujian Road, Gulou District, Nanjing, currently houses 85 elderly people over 80 years old, of whom about 80% are semi-disabled.

The person in charge of the elderly care institution stated that during the epidemic prevention and control period, they have set up an isolation observation room. When entering and exiting, staff need to show the "health code", "travel code" and verification of negative nucleic acid test information within 7 days, as well as body temperature testing and information registration. As well as daily disinfection, even the food and beverage materials admitted to the hospital are disinfected in strict accordance with the prevention and control requirements.

  It can only be unloaded and placed here. After that, we will be disinfected by the guard staff, and then sent to the canteen by a special staff member. Outsiders (entering) are prohibited.

  [Explanation] The reporter then came to the Landsea Ivy League Pension Ruicheng Community Station in Jianye District, Nanjing. The door of the pension service agency was closed tightly, and the latest epidemic prevention and control documents and systems were posted on the wall, and the notice board said Ming: "From January 10, 2021, the nursing home will be closed for management, and visits and visits are declined."

In addition to taking good care of the elderly, the staff of the elderly care institutions are also not slack in their awareness of epidemic prevention and control.

  After we received the notice, we followed the closed management. When employees need to commute, according to the requirements of the civil affairs department, a nucleic acid report must be provided every 7 days for normal traffic.

  [Explanation] Ms. Zhao, a citizen of Nanjing, delivered medicines and nursing supplies to her mother on the same day. According to regulations, the staff disinfected these items before passing them to the elderly.

  Mom, who am I?

Good, good, good!

I also gave you two reed oranges. You can eat them yourself, then I'm leaving.

They are in a nursing home, and I am relieved that their management of this nursing home is very good in all aspects.

  [Explanation] At present, Nanjing elderly care institutions have implemented closed management, and family members and children need to register by appointment and send greetings to New Year through online video to feel the "cloud reunion".

Many people have understood this kind of special "care".

  The immune system of the elderly is inherently low, so this kind of temporary isolation, I think, may be exchanged for a longer-term peace and health, which is understandable.

  [Concurrent] Ms. Zhao, a citizen of Nanjing

  For the good of the elderly, right, so that they do a good job, it should be like this, if not, we are not at ease.

  For those who can communicate via video, we often maintain video communication between the elderly and their family members. We regularly send some photos of his (elderly) life and recovery photos for them (elderly family members) to take a look. Through some network communication, we can still guarantee the family members. Some contact with the elderly, including contact with our staff is still constant.
