Xie Qiong, deputy to the Provincial People's Congress: Strengthen the training and professional training of elderly care service talents

During the "two sessions" in Anhui Province, Xie Qiong, a deputy to the Provincial People's Congress, put forward a bill on accelerating the cultivation of elderly care service talents. "The acceleration of population aging and the growth of pension demand have posed challenges to the construction of the province's pension service talent team."

Xie Qiong believes that accelerating the construction of a high-quality and professional team of old-age service talents and improving the supply capacity of old-age services are of great practical significance for accelerating the development of the old-age service industry.

Xie Qiong suggested that it is necessary to increase policy support, strengthen the training and professional training of elderly care service talents, effectively improve the high-quality supply of elderly care talents in our province, and meet the needs of old-age services in an aging society. It is necessary to build a reasonable level of elderly care service talent team. Create a three-level team of elderly care talents, professional and technical talents, and elderly care management talents. For the team of elderly care talents, a combination of attraction and training should be adopted, and it is necessary to strengthen the on-the-job training and vocational skills appraisal of elderly care personnel, guide elderly care personnel to participate in continuing education; encourage the development of various forms of old-age nursing skills competitions in the industry to continuously improve the skill quality of practitioners; carry out nursing knowledge and skills training for disabled elderly family nursing personnel, and gradually absorb the relatives of the children of the disabled elderly into the team of elderly care talents. For the team of professional and technical personnel, it is necessary to integrate the education and training resources of colleges and universities, secondary vocational schools, etc., accelerate the training of professional talents for the elderly; strengthen the construction of nursing homes that combine medical and nursing care, and set up professional and technical posts in professional institutions, so as to focus on cultivating and attracting professional and technical talents in related fields such as doctors, nurses, and social workers. For the team of pension management talents, it is necessary to strengthen the theoretical and practical training of pension services for leading talents such as the president of pension institutions, the person in charge of the community home center, the person in charge of the pension enterprise, and the person in charge of social organizations, and create a high-quality, pension management talent team that understands the old-age care and is good at operation.

In terms of expanding the source channels of old-age service talents, she suggested that, on the basis of stabilizing the existing team of old-age service personnel, in line with the principle of "for my use, do not seek everything", expand the source channels of old-age service talents, encourage health professionals and technical personnel to transfer to the old-age industry, encourage domestic service personnel, hospital nurses and urban employment difficulties in the city to engage in old-age services, encourage graduates of old-age services, old-age nursing, medical nursing and other related professional colleges and universities to work in the old-age industry, encourage retired medical workers, Young older persons are involved in the provision of services for the elderly.

In addition, she also suggested improving the overall quality through hierarchical and hierarchical training. In view of the diversified needs of the elderly, it is necessary to formulate strategies and programs for classification, stratification and full training, and mainly strengthen vocational skills training for elderly care talents; for pension management talents and professional talents, it is necessary to strengthen ability improvement training. Through multi-channel and multi-level professional training, build and cultivate a high-quality professional elderly care service talent team. Provincial civil affairs departments organize demonstration training, municipal civil affairs departments organize capacity improvement training, district-level civil affairs departments carry out skills training, and pension institutions carry out induction training, so as to realize an annual rotation training for all elderly service talents, and create a hierarchical, division of labor, and focused old-age service talent training training system.
