In the prevention and control of the epidemic, such difficult groups have not been forgotten
Reporters investigate various places and take measures to provide assistance services for vagrants and beggars
Investigating motivation
Since the outbreak of the new crown pneumonia epidemic, all localities and departments have always put people's life safety and health first, and carried out epidemic prevention and control work with the protection of the basic rights of every citizen as the starting point, and achieved positive results.
The prevention and control of the epidemic must not have any blind spots or loopholes.
Vagrant and beggars live in poor environmental sanitation, their own protection awareness and ability are weak, and frequent mobility has brought great difficulty to epidemic prevention and control.
How to solve the problem and do a good job of helping vagrants and beggars during the epidemic prevention and control period?
A reporter from the Rule of Law Daily conducted an investigation and interview.

□ Our reporter Han Dandong
In late February this year, the Taogou Police Station of Yongqiao Branch of the Public Security Bureau of Suzhou City, Anhui Province received a call from the public that there was a homeless person near Taogou Center Street, who was suspected of mental retardation.
After receiving the report, policeman on duty Zhao Xiaolong put on protective equipment and rushed to the scene, and found an old man with disheveled clothes and dirty face sitting on the steps shivering.
Zhao Xiaolong immediately put on a mask for him and took out food to satisfy his hunger.
Then, according to the requirements of epidemic prevention and control, contact the staff to conduct nucleic acid testing on the elderly and take them to designated places for observation and further verification.
After investigation, the old man's surname is Wang, from Haogou District, Yongqiao District, Suzhou City.
The police quickly got in touch with the family members of the elderly.
After confirming that his nucleic acid test result was negative and he had not been to a medium- or high-risk area, Zhao Xiaolong drove the old man back home.
The family members were extremely grateful to see the old man returning home safely.
Home is the warmest harbor.
However, there is such a group of people who, for various reasons, are unwilling or unable to find their way home, stay away from home and wander away.
In this regard, local public security, civil affairs, health and other departments have strictly implemented and detailed epidemic prevention and control measures, and spared no effort to help vagrants and beggars, and never let them become blind spots in epidemic prevention and control work.
Do a good job in epidemic prevention and control
Homeless people should not be ignored
Chen left his hometown of Zhumadian, Henan Province at the age of 17, and came to Guangzhou to work hard alone.
Because of finding a job, Chen lost confidence and started a life of odd jobs and wandering.
Due to unsatisfactory living outside, Chen has not returned home for more than 20 years and gradually lost contact with his family.
After the outbreak, Chen became more and more worried about the safety of his family, so he went to the municipal branch of the Guangzhou Relief Management Station in Guangdong Province to ask for help.
Under the premise of doing a good job in the prevention and control of the epidemic, the rescue station contacted the rescue station of Chen's household registration, the town civil affairs office, and the village committee, and finally found and opened up the phone of Chen's brother.
Knowing that his parents are still alive, Chen is eager to return home.
The rescue station provided him with a voucher to help Chen embark on his way home.
The relevant person in charge of the Guangzhou Civil Affairs Bureau told the reporter of the Rule of Law Daily that the situation of vagrants and beggars is complicated and the practical difficulties are different.
Some lost their ability to work due to old age or physical disability, some were left home due to illness or mental disorders, some were wandering due to family accidents, some were temporarily trapped due to lack of work, unrecognized relatives or loss of property, and others Use begging as a means of earning a living.
"In actual work, some vagrants and beggars are unwilling to receive assistance from the rescue management agency and have been wandering on the street for a long time. Especially during the epidemic prevention and control period, due to their weak protection awareness and ability, coupled with frequent movement, the epidemic prevention and control Work poses a certain risk." The person in charge said that preventing vagrants and beggars from being infected and spreading the epidemic has become the focus and difficulty in the rescue management work.
Tang Minzhi, Chief of the Business Section of the Shanghai Relief Management Station, introduced that due to the epidemic, the living conditions of vagrant and beggars have become more difficult. For example, the strict "two-code" access to public places makes it difficult for some vagrant beggars to find temporary rest places and easily become Potentially at-risk population.
Faced with new situations and new problems, Tang Minzhi said that the rescue station should disinfect the premises to ensure food and drug safety, and at the same time, follow the work plan to do well in the station management and health monitoring of the aided personnel, strengthen the trajectory investigation, and start immediately if an abnormality is found. Emergency response mechanism; always pay attention to changes in the epidemic situation, reasonably arrange and timely adjust the escort and return routes of aided persons, and suspend the escort and return work in time if the epidemic situation is severe.
Actively carry out classified assistance
Incorporate into community monitoring and management
Some time ago, during the distribution of free dinners, an elderly person who appeared for several days attracted the attention of volunteers from the charity group "New Life for Wanderers".
After exchanges, this vagrant was born in 1954, named Wang Faxuan, a Guizhou native. He has been away from his hometown for more than 30 years and has long lost contact with his family. Now that he is old, he is very eager to find his relatives one day.
After the volunteers reported the situation to the Shanghai Rescue Management Station, the rescue station immediately contacted the rescue station in Qiandongnan Prefecture, Guizhou, and heard about Wang Faxuan’s family through the local village committee.
After many communications, Wang Faxuan's son was willing to accept Wang Faxuan to return to the family.
After the father and son talked on the phone, their smiles climbed onto Wang Faxuan's wrinkled face.
Wang Faxuan's smooth return to his family benefited from the new mechanism reached between the Shanghai Rescue Management Station and the "New Life for Vagrant People" during the epidemic prevention and control period. Rescue personnel such as medical treatment and family search can contact the rescue station. The rescue station will actively assist in providing useful help and give full play to the "navigation" function of guiding the way.
It is understood that, in accordance with my country’s current rescue management policy, the rescue management agency provides basic food and lodging guarantees for vagrant and beggars seeking help in accordance with the principle of “voluntary assistance and unpaid assistance”, medical treatment for emergencies, and assistance in finding contact with relatives. ，Provide a ride voucher for those who have no transportation expenses to return to their hometown to ensure that “should be rescued”.
During the interview, the reporter learned that in response to the challenges posed by the epidemic to rescue work, various localities have increased their assistance in street inspections, conducted centralized inspections in key areas such as underground passages, self-service banks, subway entrances and exits, and popularized vagrants and beggars. At the same time of knowledge of epidemic prevention and control, we will carry out classified assistance, provide materials, send medical treatment, help home and other services and assistance.
The relevant person in charge of the Guangzhou Civil Affairs Bureau said that the public security, urban management, civil affairs and other departments at the municipal and district levels will conduct street inspections and referrals in a regular manner to promptly detect, inform, guide, and escort vagrants and beggars to rescue management. Institutions accept assistance, and for emergencies, promptly report to the emergency agency or escort for medical treatment; for those who are unwilling to seek help from the rescue management agency, provide them with masks, food, clothing and other protective and daily necessities, and implement the “two tests and one management” "Measures, that is, measuring body temperature, detecting nucleic acid, and including it in the scope of community health monitoring and management.
"If relief management services are to be carried out better, the participation of social forces is indispensable." The person in charge said that for this reason, Guangzhou has established a linkage mechanism for social forces to participate in rescue management services to coordinate, guide and organize social work organizations and volunteer groups. , Charitable organizations, enthusiastic people and other social forces actively and orderly participate in assistance management services, publicize assistance management policies, persuade and guide vagrants and beggars to the assistance management station to receive assistance, and provide individual assistance, psychological counseling, and family return for vagrants and beggars Township, employment recommendation, protection training and other professional services.
Tang Minzhi said that in order to do a good job in the rescue work under the prevention and control of the epidemic, the Shanghai rescue management agency has established a number of rescue measures: closed-loop management, especially for people who have no identity information, no health code or itinerary code, and no movement track. Carry out nucleic acid tests, blood routines, and chest CT; for those who need vaccination, help connect with health departments to arrange vaccination.
In the station, services such as accommodation, communication, basic medical care, subsidized return home, and escort return home are provided, and referral services are provided for those who cannot provide professional assistance services by the assistance management agencies (such as persons with intellectual disabilities).
Departmental Linkage Technology Help
Help homeless people find relatives
Recently, my country's first "Zero Carbon Home" green smart social assistance module for vagrant and beggars was successfully developed in Tianjin, which can be used in many fields such as vagrant and beggar assistance and emergency social assistance.
It is understood that the module access control is connected to the relevant departments, and vagrant beggars are authorized by the above departments to enter the rescue module through identity authentication or face recognition; the relevant departments can timely grasp the dynamics of vagrant beggars through intelligent management and make overall arrangements for vagrant beggars.
At the same time, the internal facilities of the module are highly integrated, and it is convenient and quick to use. It can be released on demand according to rescue needs, and recycled at any time, realizing dynamic management.
In recent years, the information construction of rescue work for vagrant and beggars has progressed rapidly, and its effectiveness has been fully released during the epidemic prevention and control period.
According to reports, the Jinmin Project National Vagrant and Beggar Relief Management Information System is a business system for national relief management agencies to carry out relief work. It integrates the functions of identity inquiry and screening of recipients, care services, family-seeking management, source governance, statistical analysis and other functions. , Realizing the management of rescue management work from discovery, rescue to placement, supervision and other links, the rescue management information ability has been significantly improved.
The Shanghai Rescue Management Station is actively researching and refining various effective methods to identify and find relatives, and collect DNA blood samples in time for the recipients who have not found clues to seek relatives after 7 working days. The blood samples of 220 recipients have been collected. The information was entered into the DNA database for comparison, and 3 people were successfully compared.
Tang Minzhi said: "We have established a cooperative relationship with a new media platform, using the Internet + precise geographic pop-up technology, to accurately push notifications of finding relatives to specific areas such as suspected missing places and household registrations to help people in need find their families. So far, 307 aid recipients have been released to find family members, and 59 aid recipients have successfully found their families."
"We actively leverage departmental linkages and scientific and technological advantages to strengthen the cooperation of vagrants and beggars in finding relatives." The relevant person in charge of the Guangzhou Civil Affairs Bureau gave an example. For the mentally handicapped and incompetent recipients, the relevant personnel will be related within 7 working days. The information was reported to the public security department to use DNA comparison, portrait recognition, fingerprints, palmprint recognition and other technical means for screening, which greatly improved the efficiency and success rate of finding relatives.
Since the outbreak of the epidemic, Guangzhou's rescue management agencies have assisted more than 15,000 vagrant and beggars, and distributed nearly 23,000 pieces (sets) of daily life and epidemic prevention items to street vagrant beggars.
Under the normalization of epidemic prevention and control, the care and love for vagrants and beggars demonstrates the lively practice of all localities and departments that always put people's lives and health in the first place.
