"These volunteers come to my home regularly to clean up and take my blood pressure, and they are very caring, just like their own children." Wang Xiuhua, an old man who lives in Dongtan Village, Haojiaqiao Town, said.
Recently, the social workers of the social work service station in Haojiaqiao Town came to the home of Wang Xiuhua, an elderly man living in Dongtan Village, to help the elderly clean their homes and chat with the elderly to relieve their boredom. Grandma Wang is an elderly person, her health has not been very good, her legs and feet are inconvenient, and she can basically take care of herself in her usual life, but the heavy work at home is beyond her strength, Grandma Wang has only one son, and her physical condition is poor, and she has no ability to work, so the social worker cleans the glass, doors and windows and cleans the ground for Grandma Wang, and measures blood pressure and moxibustion physiotherapy for Grandma Wang.
In recent years, in order to supplement the strength of grassroots civil affairs services, improve the efficiency of grassroots civil affairs services with standardized social work, and send the care and care of the party and the government to the people in need, the Civil Affairs Bureau has invested more than 4 million yuan in the purchase of social service projects, giving full play to the professional advantages of social organizations, focusing on difficult groups such as "one old and one young" and "one disabled and one poor", and carrying out "social assistance + care services", "elderly care services + family assistance", "care and protection of minors in distress + happy companionship", "social affairs + grassroots governance" social organization cultivation + civil affairs team training" and other services, injecting social worker power into the grassroots and adding warmth and excitement to the life of village (resident) people.
"We focus on the elderly, the poor and other elderly groups, providing medical assistance, cleaning assistance, psychological comfort, health consultation, social integration and other services. Since the beginning of this year, a total of 45 door-to-door visits and psychological counseling have been carried out, serving 779 people; carried out 42 times of medical assistance such as free consultation, rehabilitation services, and traditional Chinese medicine physiotherapy, serving 1,215 people; 75 people were provided with haircuts and home services, and 230 people were provided with life care services. Ma Xiaomei, a staff member of the Civil Affairs Bureau, introduced.
In addition to paying attention to the elderly, the Civil Affairs Bureau also implements the action of caring for children in difficulty, deeply understanding and analyzing the current situation of children in distress such as unsupported children and left-behind children in urban and rural communities, and carrying out various service activities with rich content, diverse forms and high participation with psychological education, group activities, learning counseling, etc. Since the beginning of this year, a total of 11 haircuts have been carried out; 7 birthday celebrations, serving 348 people; purchased and distributed school supplies and services to 215 orphans and de facto unsupported children in the community; 5 legal popularization lectures, serving 153 people; 3 cultural interest promotion classes were formed, with 110 teaching hours and 420 person-times served; 2 phases of outdoor development activities (2 days/period) of summer camp, serving 100 people; 4 mental health education activities were held, serving 360 people.
It is understood that at present, the civil affairs has achieved the "three 3s" effect through the way of project-based operation, that is, three supports (position construction support, financial support, and professional support) to strengthen site construction, three integrations (integration of human affairs and professional social workers' human resources, integration of community volunteers and public welfare and charity forces, and integration of organizational resources of grassroots governments and interest groups) to strengthen multi-party linkage, and three transformations (to achieve the transformation of rescue goals from survival to development, and the transformation of rescue means from single to multi-type, The rescue method has changed from universal to high-quality) to strengthen the effectiveness of services.
In the next step, the Civil Affairs Bureau will actively learn from the advanced experience and practices inside and outside the district, in accordance with the principle of "three unifications" of identification, rules and regulations, and service standards, build a high-standard work system of civil affairs service stations at the city, township and village levels, give full play to the advantages of social organization incubation bases, cultivate and incubate high-quality social organizations, and strive to explore new models and paths for civil affairs work to help rural revitalization, strengthen the construction of civil affairs talent teams, and write a new chapter in civil affairs work.
