Hey everyone! Did you know that China is working hard to make sure all elderly people, like your grandparents, get the care they need? π΅π΄
China’s Minister of Civil Affairs, Lu Zhiyuan, announced that the goal is to ensure every elderly person has access to basic care services. Just like there are schools for learning π and hospitals when we feel sick π₯, they want special places where older people can be looked after with love and attention.
They’re building a big network to help elderly people in both cities and the countryside. This means more care homes, community centers, and even helpers who can visit the elderly at home! π‘
They also plan to combine medical care with elderly care. This way, our grandparents can stay healthy and happy. π
Minister Lu mentioned five important steps to make this happen:
- Planning: Making good plans to support elderly care services. π
- Financial Support: Providing money to build and run care facilities. π°
- Talent Development: Training people to take care of the elderly. π©ββοΈ
- Elderly Care Finance: Managing funds specifically for elderly services. π³
- Technology: Using cool gadgets and computers to help care for the elderly. π»
Isn’t it amazing how they’re working to help grandparents feel loved and supported? Maybe one day, you can come up with great ideas to help others too! π
