Intensive posting multiple deployments
The new coronary pneumonia epidemic is a big exam for child welfare institutions. How to prevent death and prevent child welfare institutions from attacking the virus is a key point for the civil affairs department to fight the epidemic prevention and control. It must be highly valued, fully deployed, and actively done.
Since the outbreak of the epidemic, Minister of Civil Affairs Li Jiheng has repeatedly made clear requirements on how to strengthen the prevention and control of child welfare epidemics. Gao Xiaobing, deputy minister in charge, led the former working group of the Ministry of Civil Affairs to Wuhan, Hubei to participate in epidemic prevention and control. On February 26, a national video conference on epidemic prevention and control in civil welfare organizations for children was held to study and analyze the situation, problems and difficulties of epidemic prevention and control in civil welfare organizations for children.
A number of documents related to the prevention and control of epidemics in the field of child welfare were issued intensively. On January 27, the General Office of the Ministry of Civil Affairs issued the “Guidelines for the Prevention and Control of Pneumonia Epidemic in New Coronavirus Infections in Service Institutions for Children ’s Welfare (First Edition)”, requiring institutions to establish an agency prevention and control leading group to formulate prevention and control emergency plans And formulated 10 pragmatic measures, requiring all levels of child welfare institutions and minors rescue and protection institutions to implement closed management, refused all visitors, and comprehensively prevent and prevent possible sources of infection from entering the child welfare service agencies.
On February 11, the General Office of the Ministry of Civil Affairs issued the "Notice on Doing a Good Job in the Rescue and Protection of Children with Missing Custody due to the Impact of the New Coronary Pneumonia Epidemic."
On February 18th, the "Notice on Further Doing a Good Job in the Prevention and Treatment of Diseases and Prevention and Treatment for Minor Relief and Protection Institutions in Children's Welfare Institutions" was issued to provide comprehensive services for children's disease prevention and treatment in children's welfare fields. Early detection, early reporting, early quarantine, early treatment and other specific deployments will be made.
On March 14, the Joint Defense and Control Mechanism of the State Council issued the “Working Plan for the Rescue and Protection of Children with Missing Custody due to the Impact of the New Coronary Pneumonia Outbreak”, instructing all localities to promptly discover and report on the situation of children with a lack of custody due to the impact of the epidemic, and effectively implement the responsibilities of monitoring and care. This notice requires local civil affairs departments to instruct children ’s supervisors and children ’s directors under the unified deployment of township (street) and village (residential) residents ’committees to promptly find children lacking custody due to the impact of the new coronary pneumonia epidemic and promptly report to the village where they are located. (Resident) People's Committee and townships (streets) report relevant information, coordinate and solve problems in a timely manner, or report to reflect difficulties; request to rely on prefecture-level minor rescue and protection institutions to open a child protection and protection hotline due to the impact of epidemic situation Social announcements, timely response to relevant clues, and good temporary care consultation and other work.
On March 24, the Ministry of Civil Affairs and the Ministry of Education issued the "Notice on Coordinating and Promoting the Work Related to the Prevention and Control of Epidemic Situations in Children's Welfare and Resuming Production and Resuming Work", requesting service agencies at all levels in the child welfare field to further implement various measures for the prevention and control of the epidemic In accordance with the work deployment of the joint defense and joint control mechanism of the territories, the work related to the resumption of work and resumption of production should be done in a safe and orderly manner.
Adopt classification and progressive control
In front of the epidemic, there was only a combat pioneer, and no retreat.
The slogan "Every branch is a battle fortress, and every party member is a bright red party flag" has been quickly screamed in child welfare agencies everywhere; "Party member vanguard" and "Party member assault gang" have also been established; The "resolve book" and "please book" came one after another, and the fight to protect the safety and health of orphans and disabled children started.
Making the prevention and control system stronger is the first task. Various service organizations in the field of child welfare pay close attention to the "foreign defense input" link to formulate measures, adopt regional control, whole hospital control, closed hospital control, wartime state militarized control and other progressive control levels, and further make prevention and control work. real.
Children's welfare agencies in Hubei Province actively strive for policy support and incorporate the agencies into the overall deployment of local epidemic investigation joint prevention and joint control. Xiaogan City Children's Welfare Institute also put forward the working mechanism of "managing people with systems, managing affairs with processes, and minds with activities", adopting the strictest control methods to ensure the absolute safety of children in the institution.
The Guangzhou Social Welfare Institute launched the "four-one emergency response mechanism" and adopted "the strictest blocking, the strictest procedures, the strictest detection, the warmest service, the strictest supervision, and the strongest force" comprehensively. Strengthen internal epidemic prevention and control.
Civil affairs departments at all levels implement a "zero report" system and report daily on the epidemic prevention and control of service agencies and service targets in local child welfare areas.
A series of new methods are also used in this epidemic prevention and control work. For example, the use of WeChat video means to carry out "random sampling and remote inspection" of child welfare service institutions in all provinces of the country to achieve full coverage of the random inspection of epidemic prevention and control work of child welfare service institutions in all provinces of the country.
Using the "Ding Ding" online video conferencing platform, the heads of national child welfare institutions were organized to carry out five phases of epidemic prevention and control training, with more than 1,500 people trained. The system systematically sorts out the focus of epidemic prevention and control work in child welfare institutions, produces animation illustrations, and distributes them to child welfare institutions around the world. It is intuitive and practical, and easy to operate.
Problem-oriented classification
As the epidemic situation continues to change, prevention and control measures must also be constantly adjusted.
In response to the shortage of medical supplies in some child welfare institutions in Hubei, the Ministry of Civil Affairs urgently coordinated a number of foundations to provide support to Hubei, especially Wuhan. Aiming at the problems found in the prevention and control of the epidemic situation of the welfare institutions by video inspection, we should do a good job of “looking back” in time, follow up and supervise, and do not withdraw troops without solving the problems. In response to the problem of asymptomatic infected persons in individual provinces, we coordinated the promotion of epidemic prevention and control in the field of child welfare, and resumed work, resumed production, and returned to school. In response to the problem of lack of child custody due to the impact of the epidemic, the scope of investigation will be expanded one after the other, and this part of the orphans or the actual unsupported children will be rescued in a timely manner, and life care will be implemented by category to carry out the necessary psychological relief.
Strengthening the rescue and protection of children under guardianship caused by the impact of the new coronary pneumonia epidemic is an important manifestation of the child welfare agencies' active role in the prevention and control of the epidemic. In response to the problem of care for children who lack guardianship, local governments have taken effective measures such as finding effective guardians, community custody, and trusteeship of uninsured centers to strengthen guardianship and care. Guangdong, Heilongjiang, Jiangxi, Anhui, Shanxi and other places have also opened a 24-hour child rescue protection hotline to provide care and support services for children in need.
The work related to rescue guarantee is also being strengthened. All places conduct comprehensive investigations by means of household registration, telephone, video, and department information sharing, so as to "leave one household and one person". Take simplified procedures to expedite the process, implement paper account management, fully distribute the basic living expenses and temporary living allowances for children in distress (orphans), and make sure that "all should be guaranteed".
"The majority of cadres and employees in our child welfare service organizations have renounced family relations to ensure the safety of children's lives and health, with homes as the home, preventive and control measures in place, strict implementation of the system, and guarded the child welfare institutions. A pure land. But zero infection It does not mean zero risk. The situation of epidemic prevention and control is still grim in all regions. We will not be fortunate not to relax, to start from the end and continue to maintain a highly closed state of full alertness. We will not win any victory, and we will never withdraw troops. "
