China News Service, Shanghai, May 4th (Reporter Li Jiajia) The old house that carries the historical memory of Shanghai city has encountered new problems under the epidemic.
70% of the households are elderly people and do not have independent property management. When the “pause button” of urban life in Shanghai is pressed, how should the people living in the more than 100-year-old mansion and health park solve their most basic living needs?
Without property management, residents acted spontaneously and set up a guard team composed of volunteers.
Under the leadership of Yu Jing, the former secretary of the Party branch of the Tai'an residential area, the guard team guided the residents to complete the nucleic acid testing task, and spared no effort and spared no effort to run around inside and outside the community day and night, distributing antigens, transporting and distributing materials, so that life here can live during the lockdown period." Busy but not chaotic", still operating in an orderly manner on the track of the past.

Jin Caizhen, an old party member, gets up at 5:30 every morning, and soon she is busy in the alley. She and the eldest volunteer, Xia Weizhen, clean up the surrounding garbage and arrange each heavy trash can neatly. With the joint assistance of other volunteers, relay cleaning and cleaning dead corners to keep the community clean and tidy.
Since the duty room personnel of the community gatekeepers were locked at home, how to be on duty became the top priority in front of Weiyuan.
After some discussion, the guardian team of Weiyuan Park organized 12 residents, who took turns on duty three shifts a day from 7:00 am to 10:00 pm, and strictly controlled the situation.
At the same time, the residents also took out the disinfection items at home, disinfected the express items, and locked the door after 10 pm in the group consultation to ensure the safety of the residents and prevent the possible spread of the epidemic by outsiders.
Because it is an old community, 70% of the residents here are the elderly, and the epidemic lockdown has brought a lot of inconvenience to their lives. Because they are not good at operating smartphones, trivial life things such as dispensing medicine, seeing a doctor, and shopping for vegetables will not be available during the lockdown period. It has become a problem for them, and the old people here are worried.
At this time, volunteers stood up one after another, and through pairing, they helped patients with chronic diseases to dispense medicines one-on-one, and cared about the daily life of the elderly living alone and orphans. Gradually, smiles appeared on the faces of the elderly.

The preparation of medicines and medical treatment is available, but how to solve the living materials has also made Yu Jing difficult. Although she has contacted the shopping platform, it is still far from meeting the needs. Therefore, young people in the community are mobilized to carry out "group buying". Thanks to the efforts of the "group leaders" such as Xiao Qin and Xiao Tang, the shopping group was born, contacting suppliers, sending out solitaire links, and carefully checking the information of items, from essential items in life to the food that residents usually like to eat. , all of a sudden ease the anxiety of the residents being locked at home, let everyone feel the power of the group.
Seeing that the elderly who can't use mobile phones to shop can't do anything, the volunteers are also busy, helping with group purchases and distributing them. When there is a shortage of living materials in the neighborhood, the volunteers take out the only things they have at home without reservation, and solve the urgent need. .
