The family-style spirit of mutual assistance makes the elders willing to move and run Rizhao Center as their home. Where did this idea come from? Zhou Wenzhen, CEO of Biegel Foundation, said that it was actually because they found that there was no smile on their elders' faces. "Being taken care of at home is used to it, but it makes them unwilling to move and loses their vitality." (Rizhao service provides diversified learning. The stroke dementia hiding in the corner becomes cheerful. )
However, in the center, when the elders cheat and don't want to do aerobics, the waiter can't ignore it. It is said that coquetry is the most useful Whispered in the elder's ear: "If you don't do it, I will lose my job!" ! "Hearing this sentence, the elders will move reflexively, which works every time. Zhou Wenzhen said with a smile: "Grasping the hearts of the elders and cherishing the younger generation, we began to inject this family-style spirit of mutual assistance into the daily life and innovation plan of the center. 」

Therefore, the elderly in Yongda Rizhao Center usually start their day like this: get off the bus, walk into the center, pour themselves a cup of hot tea after reporting for duty, then go to the bulletin board to see the activities planned by the center today, and decide whether to participate or not according to their mood. Then, the waiter will call on those who arrive early to clean up the vegetable garden at Happy Farm.
The original intention of establishing Happy Farm is gardening as an adjuvant therapy and the five senses experience of elders. However, the waiter thought that growing vegetables was only for curing diseases, so he encouraged them to take the harvested vegetables home to share with their families and grandchildren, which unexpectedly aroused the interest of the elders in growing vegetables. Later, the harvest got better and better, and everyone was too lazy to take it home after eating. They sold it according to the waiter's suggestion. I heard that there was money to be made, and the elders showed full fighting spirit.

Lin Zhaode, a waiter, said that the staff of many things are often only responsible for the beginning, and the subsequent development is up to the elders themselves. "For example, old people want vegetables to grow faster and will take the initiative to collect leftover banana peels as fertilizer; After the harvest, some people are responsible for sorting, others are responsible for bundling vegetables, and automatically form a production line, making money really badly. 」
The invisible care program allows the elderly to recover their dignity from life. The weekly "Happy Meal" is another invisible care plan of Yongda Rizhao Center. A small chef action group is formed by employees and elders to serve everyone in turn.

On this day, the staff will take their elders to the nearby shops to enjoy a pleasant and respected shopping experience. After returning to the center, everyone can undertake their own "tasks". Some people cut vegetables with a kitchen knife, some people stir-fry with a spatula, and some people help set the table. In the cooking process, the whole space is full of delicious food, and the food becomes more delicious because of interpersonal interaction. No matter what you eat that day, there is always an unchanging side dish in the happy paradise meal, which is the smile of the elders.
In Yongda, elders use porcelain plates to hold dishes and bowls to hold meals. CEO Zhou Wenzhen said that although it may break and increase inconvenience, if you switch to stainless steel tableware, it will be lost with the temperature at home. "When it's time for lunch, we let the elders take their own dishes, choose their favorite dishes, and decide whether to eat fish or meat for the main course today. At the same time, it also enhances the daily rehabilitation of elders and reverses the disability process. (4 nursing tips, no need to tie the elders)
After dinner, several grannies who have the habit of walking will go to the front atrium and count while exercising. When they are tired, there are rattan chairs at the door to let them sit down and rest. An old man will take a dustpan and broom and take the initiative to help clean the fallen leaves in the yard; If the elders don't want to take a lunch break, they can have fun, write calligraphy, play chess or read newspapers, and do whatever they want.

Establishing virtual banks to let the elderly find hope for life. If you want to talk about creativity, you can't help but mention the innovative scheme of Yongda Bank. Huang Yanting, a social worker, observed that elderly people who need long-term care are often deprived of economic autonomy, and even deprived of the right to choose by their families. "The original intention of setting up a virtual bank is to help the elderly find hope for life through savings activities. 」
As for the exchange method, it is also full of ingenuity. "In order to let the elders really experience the feeling of having money and shopping in their hands, we chose toy banknotes as eternal banknotes and asked waiters to pretend to be bank employees and shop assistants, hoping to be authentic. Huang Yanting, a social worker, said that the elders were not only satisfied when they first went to Yongda Bank to withdraw money, but also went to Yongda Store to buy things. During this period, every step of walking activities, communication, commodity selection and checkout calculation is conducive to physical and mental rehabilitation.

It is inconvenient to attach importance to the autonomy of elders, so this care model needs more attention. "Worrying about falling is the first thing that everyone thinks of," said Ma Yuxuan, head of the photo service team. At first, he made great efforts to communicate with the photo service staff and their families. Because he agreed with the view of "using in and discarding out", everyone reached an understanding. In recent years, it has been found that although staff must always come up with new tricks to encourage their elders to use their brains and exercise, they are also more fulfilled.
Even if you are disabled or demented, you don't have to give up the pleasure and dignity of being a human being. Watching the old people live happily in the present is the source of vitality for stone employees every day.
