Old man's health care becomes the social focus
At present, the population structure of China has already entered senilization stage. The statistical data of the related departments reveal, China has population 132 million over 60 now, accounting for 10.2% of the population, among them the old population 1,880,000 over Beijing 60, accounts for 14.6% of the total population in the whole city. Double action that because plan the child-bearing policy and the life expectancy of the population lengthens, the changing situation of aging population is very fast, it is estimated 50 years in the future, old population will also increase progressively at the speed of 3.2% per year, Beijing will become one of the most serious cities of aging population. The characteristic Fragrant Hills courtyard Vice President Yao YiMin of nursing for the aged of Beijing of aging population tells reporters, population does not hesitate when proning to senilization constantly will produce some negative effects on the society, but this is an important sign of social progress from essence. Old population growth is that people's living standard is improved progressively, the result that the medical condition is being improved constantly, have reflected social economy and progress of the science and technology. Aging population has already become the inexorable trend of current people's development, will bring deep influence to life of human society. The State Council develops central people's development to predict that reveals: Aging population can roughly be divided into 5 periods, from 1982 to 1999 for the people growing up transition period to the old age type, the elderly are increased to 126 million by 70 million over 60; It is that the aging population accelerated one from 2000 to 2010, the elderly were risen to 173 million by 130 million over 60, the population proportion accounted for rises to 12.5% from 10.3%; It was the rise period at a high speed of aging population from 2010 to 2040, the elderly are risen to 400 million by 170 million over 60, the total people's proportion accounted for rises to 24.5% from 12.5%; It was the moderation period for development of aging population from 2040 years to 2060; Enter steady one 2060 years later. President Yao says, the prominent characteristic one of aging population of our country is that the absolute value is the first of the world; Second, the development of aging population is very fast; Third, the population of our country has not been rich and old first, cause the pressure greatly to economic development; Fourth, the elderly's area distributes very uneven; Fifth, the trend is very obvious at advanced age of aging population. Trend of melting of advanced age of growth especially old population of old population is outstanding day by day, trend of making the elderly become inevitable to the increase of their socialization, specialized service demand. Because with the years, the health circulation, self-care ability and health status of the elderly drop gradually, some daily life affairs can't be finished independently, especially the elderly over 80 need someone to assist to finish or look after. But with the development of economy, the progress of the society, the mode will be that a pair of young married couple bear 4 (may even be 8) in supporting parents of China The old man's task of supporting parents, its difficulty can be well imagined. It is obvious, the traditional family supports parents the unprecedented problem will appear in the mode. Support parents and socialize imperative president Yao and say, with the growth of old man's age, its physiology declines day by day seriously, the health status is generally relatively bad, the ill rate is high. The statistics show, the old man suffer from different kinds of diseases at advanced age over 80, among them common disease includes the cardiovascular disease (heart disease, hypertension,etc.) ,Cerebrovascular diseases (cerebral hemorrhage, brain block up etc.) ,Endocrine disease (diabetes,etc.) ,Osteoarthrosis (arthritis,etc.) And five big classes such as tumours of different types. Ill old man's life self-care ability is lost progressively, cultural life is comparatively poor. What they need urgently is that caring for in time, help of daily life, health status at the time of convenient medical treatment and health care, illness are improved etc.. The old man is in the risky period in life in such aspects as economy, health, viability at advanced age, only rely on its own strength to be very difficult and resist this kind of risk. As the disadvantaged groups of the society, the family supports parents the function is weakened, they should get society's more concern and support, in order to let the old man spend remaining years in comfort in the modern life happily, social pension has already mentioned the agenda. According to the national sector standard, the elderly's social pension welfare organization includes the old social wellfare home, old people's home (old man's institute) Apartment for elderly people, the intersection of nursing for the aged and institute, home for the aged, senior citizens' care centre, the intersection of the elderly and service centre,etc.. In the institute of nursing for the aged of Fragrant Hills of Beijing, the reporter sees several dozen old persons are either having a rest, or talking, or playing card, or reading the newspaper happily and harmoniously in the spacious and bright hall. This Li Yan, head nurse of institute, tells reporters, the old man coming to attend to the institute mainly has 4 kinds: First, recuperate simply, mainly in order to leave one's post veteran cadre and high level intellectual; Second, the old man curing the disease, it can't be looked after throughout the year that its children's work is too busy, but the old man's disease needs special messenger to attend to; Third, the old man whom children go out to need to look after in a short time; Fourth, the old man that the approaching one's end old man can not take care of oneself at all promptly. Li Yan says, the reason why the elderly choose to attend to the institute, first, not want to add to children and bear, because children's work is busier. People at any time might take place disease while being getting old, in order to handle old man's disease, children must ask for leave, and the procedure of nowadays seeing the doctor is very convoluted, will bring the unnecessary trouble to children; Second, it is all very convenient to attend to the institute and eat. Meanwhile, on attending to courtyard, can see the doctor at any time while being sick, have disease can make, check often too, what's more the elderly live together, the warm big family of only picture, is beneficial to one's own body and mind. Mr. Zhao who has served as English Professor in one university says to reporters, two children of hers are in U.S.A., retire by oneself and spouse, to U.S.A. to live for some time, but the indigenous Chinese after all, is not very used to foreign life, has come back home the old man of the last two has chosen the institute of nursing for the aged. Mr. Zhao say nursing for the aged institute give somebody one warmth of house. In here, one's own health can ensure not merely, can receive treatment at any time when being healthy. And can often exchange between the old men, the lonely life when compared with at home, the life of the institute of nursing for the aged should be substantiated much. The problem to be solved is according to the introduction of president Yao urgently, because there are more chronic disease patients among the elderly, the course of disease is relatively long, lead to the fact old crowd's rising range of hospitalization cost is relatively large. Because the elderly economic issue lead to the fact the elderly reduce and proportion of giving up medical care increase. By the look of the expenditure situations of socialized medicine and labour-protection medical care in this city, the proportion that the hospitalization cost of the elderly has accounted for the all-inclusive cost is far higher than the old number of people and proportion of the crew size of the whole city. The elderly's special physiology, psychological characteristics and special economic status have determined they have a special demand in hygiene service. The health care established and pursued at present ensures the system to offer Medical cares basic disparities certain also with the elderly special demand. In a huge one being old under the crowd and limited the intersection of hygiene and the intersection of resource and terms, must canvass, set up one suitable for of our country the intersection of old person and hygiene of national conditions, serve the security system, ensure each old person's enjoy basic hygiene and health servicing. Serve the planning of development to require with community's hygiene according to the stipulations of basic medical insurance of Beijing, should solve the construction of facilities of medical care of the elderly, the ones that formed municipal or district, community's old medical attendance are networked; Issue organization's management of nursing for the aged of Beijing as soon as possible, in order to strengthen the management of the medical attendance trade; Strengthen and attend to the building of contingent, improve the whole quality of the old medical attendance organization's staff members at all levels; Strengthen senile disease to prevent and cure and study; Fully utilize existing social resources, make the preferential policy and establish the service centre of nursing for the aged of the community and institute of nursing for the aged, meet the intersection of different levels and the intersection of health service and demand of old man, move in, attend to centre and attend to the intersection of hygiene and expenses of institute, wipe out at the policy offering looking after and favour,etc. due to illness the elderly.
