"What are the dishes today?" Less than half past 10 o'clock, the elderly canteen on the first floor of the elderly paradise in Zhangyan Town, Jinshan District, ushered in uncles, aunts, grandparents and grandparents one after another.

It's all home-cooked, fragrant and hot.

It is understood that in the process of the "four hundred" visit, relying on the "four libraries" linkage mechanism, the "elderly canteen for the elderly has not yet been opened for operation" in the list of problems, and the town social affairs office actively docked and opened the elderly canteen, responded to the expectations of the surrounding elderly residents, and further weaved a dense meal service network for the elderly.
The canteen was officially opened to the public on December 20, and on the first day of opening, many elderly people learned the news from the community group and couldn't wait to come to the new canteen to "check in". Aunt Guan, who lives in Peony New Village, said happily: "In fact, we elderly people are quite particular about eating, eating less and more nutritious, the dishes here are light and delicious, and the rice is soft, which meets our taste needs." It's usually troublesome to cook it yourself, but you can choose which one you want to eat here, and the service is also considerate. After eating, you can also go upstairs and downstairs, and the park is also next to it, which is very convenient. ”
Uniquely, the elderly canteen is located in the elderly park, which expands the park's "embedded" elderly care service function and further enhances the "happy elderly care circle" at the doorstep of residents. On the first floor of the park, there is an outdoor gateball court, a chess and card room, a reading room, and on the second floor, there are multi-purpose rooms, rehabilitation training rooms, barber rooms, movie viewing rooms, etc. Luo Hui, the person in charge of the park, introduced that once a month will be arranged for the elderly barber volunteer service, twice a week free movie; the multi-purpose room is almost full every day, and the elderly residents form teams to rehearse fan dance, sword dance, waist drum, and sing Shanghai opera; there are also a variety of course projects, such as making coasters, soap, cloth bags and other handicraft activities so that the elderly group can get a full sense of achievement, "mobile phone classroom" takes everyone to enjoy the wisdom of old age, and the pension consultant will also regularly carry out pension policy consultation and popularization services.
In recent years, Zhangyan Town has continued to improve the social security system for the elderly, and continuously met the basic needs of the elderly in terms of housing, activities, health, and dining. At present, 1 comprehensive service center for the elderly, 6 day service centers for the elderly and 46 good-neighbor points have been built, and 15 activity rooms for the elderly have all been standardized. At the same time, three village clinics and one community health service station have been standardized, which has greatly improved the quality of medical services for the elderly. In addition, through self-declaration and unified distribution, the full coverage of meal delivery for the elderly in the town is realized, creating a "happy pension circle" at the doorstep, and carefully polishing the background color of "happy pension".
