Recently, the national plan for the development of the cause of the elderly and the pension service system in the 14th five year plan issued by the State Council proposed to continuously expand the coverage of basic pension insurance and realize the national overall planning of basic pension insurance for enterprise employees as soon as possible; Gradually realize the direct settlement of outpatient expenses across provinces, expand the reimbursement scope of chronic disease drugs for the elderly, and bring more chronic disease drugs into the centralized volume procurement, so as to reduce the drug burden of the elderly.

At the same time, the plan proposes that public pension institutions should adhere to the attribute of public welfare, take a good bottom line, and focus on providing services for the empty nest, left behind, disabled, disabled, elderly and the elderly in special family planning families. We should improve the coverage of public pension institutions, establish a regular visit system for the elderly with special difficulties, and prevent the risks of basic life safety. By 2025, the establishment rate of nursing homes and the monthly visit rate of the elderly with special difficulties will reach 100%.

In terms of articles for the elderly, rehabilitation aids can help the elderly, the disabled and the injured improve their quality of life and promote rehabilitation, involving all aspects of life such as daily life, washing, eating, moving, toilet, housework and communication. However, at present, many elderly families in China do not know much about rehabilitation aids. Therefore, the plan proposes to develop sales and rental outlets of embedded rehabilitation aids in streets and communities where conditions permit, so as to promote the application and promotion of high-quality products.

The 80 year old uncle Yang has hemiplegia and needs the help of his wife Aunt Li in daily life. The electric nursing bed rented from the community rental point of rehabilitation aids has helped them a lot.

In 2019, Shanghai began to carry out the pilot work of community rental of rehabilitation aids, which has now covered all streets, towns and townships in the city. Most of the rental points are located in community comprehensive service centers and elderly care institutions, which are convenient for the elderly, the disabled and the injured to rent nearby, or Cross Street towns.

Shen Min, deputy director of Shanghai Civil Affairs Bureau: "at present, our leasing service mainly adopts the combination of government promotion and market operation. Various leasing service institutions are selected and determined by streets, towns and townships to carry out leasing services in a market-oriented manner."

At present, the products available for lease in Shanghai include 52 products in 5 categories. At a community rental point, the reporter saw that the rehabilitation aids providing rental business include electric nursing beds, wheelchairs, walking aids, toilet assisted lifting chairs, etc., which have a wide variety, and are equipped with consultants to help wear and try, shop around and provide professional advice.

In the street park next to the rental point, Aunt Zhang with inconvenient legs and feet experienced an electric wheelchair.

Shanghai citizen Aunt Zhang: "I used it and it's quite convenient. It's more than 1000 yuan for half a year. It's still acceptable for us. This price."

Li Lu, researcher of the Institute of Social Sciences of the Chinese Academy of Macroeconomics: "the field of elderly products, especially the industry of rehabilitation accessories, has not been fully understood by the public, especially the elderly groups 。 In this regard, we also need some other places in China to see this kind of people's demand, and set up some facilities and institutions such as commissioning points and supply centers, so that people can find ideal products they are satisfied with. "

Today, everyone is very concerned about how to bridge the digital divide and make more intelligent technologies serve the elderly. In this regard, the plan also clearly proposes to promote the scientific, technological and intelligent upgrading of articles for the elderly.

Shen Shulin, an old man in linta village, Dongtai City, Jiangsu Province, felt uncomfortable after getting up. He immediately pressed the wireless alarm device at the head of the bed. Within five minutes, the staff came to the old man's home to measure blood pressure, blood oxygen and heart rate.
