Hard work, low pay and low social status have always made it difficult to recruit and retain professional nursing staff. How to solve this problem? Yesterday, the reporter learned from the Nanjing Civil Affairs Bureau that the "Measures for the Implementation of Pension Service Subsidies in Nanjing" (hereinafter referred to as the "Implementation Measures") will be promulgated in the near future. For the first time in Nanjing, it is clear that the nursing staff who have worked for more than 2 years will receive subsidies and obtain corresponding certificates, with a maximum one-time reward of 3,000 yuan.
Recruiting people in old-age care institutions has always been a difficult problem. In private pension institutions, the number of nursing staff is even smaller. The reporter of Modern Express learned that there are currently more than 1000 nursing staff in Nanjing, of which nearly 80% are "amateurs" and their skills are not up to standard.
In order to improve the social status and service quality of elderly nurses, more professionals are encouraged to join this industry. Nanjing gives a one-time subsidy of 3,000 yuan, 2,000 yuan, 1000 yuan and 500 yuan to nurses who have been employed for more than two years and obtained the qualification certificates of technician, senior, intermediate and junior issued by the human and social departments.
In order to encourage social organizations to engage in the aged care service industry, the Implementation Measures also increased subsidies for aged care institutions. Considering the high rent of private pension institutions and the need for maintenance of self-built houses, Nanjing will give maintenance (rent) subsidies to private pension institutions with occupancy rate above 70% and no major accidents within one year. Every year, each bed is located in six urban areas of 500 yuan and five suburban areas of 400 yuan. For the elderly who lost their lives in low-income groups, nursing subsidies have also increased. For this part of the elderly, the government has given the difference subsidy, and the nursing subsidy will be increased from 150 yuan/month to 360 yuan/month.
At the same time, the subsidy for the construction of nursing beds has also been adjusted. The relevant person in charge of the Nanjing Civil Affairs Bureau said that all beds in the medical and nursing institutions cannot be defined as nursing beds. After repeated discussions with the Municipal Finance Bureau, they determined three standards. Beds in nursing homes and rehabilitation homes are nursing beds. The old-age care institution has an infirmary or clinic, and the ratio of nursing staff to clients reaches 1:5. At the same time, these beds are equipped with facilities or equipment as needed. For example, if there is a call bell at the bedside and railings on both sides, you can apply for a nursing bed. When an agreement is signed between an old-age care institution and a nearby medical institution, when the ratio of nursing staff to nursing objects reaches 1:5, beds will be allocated as needed, and medical staff will make rounds in the old-age care institution at least twice a week, which can be regarded as nursing beds.
Private old-age care institutions meet the standard of nursing beds, and each newly built institution will be given a one-time construction subsidy of not less than 1 10,000 yuan; Transformation, each subsidy is not less than 5000 yuan. If the non-nursing bed is transformed into a nursing bed through subsidies, it can enjoy a one-time subsidy of 2000 yuan.
