background
The proposal puts forward the concept of "innovation, coordination, green, openness and enjoyment". Among them, "* * * enjoyment" means enhancing people's well-being and letting people enjoy the fruits of economic and social development. The "Proposal" pointed out that we should actively carry out actions to deal with the aging population, carry forward the social fashion of respecting, supporting and helping the elderly, build a multi-level old-age service system based on home, relying on communities and supplemented by institutions, promote the combination of medical and health care and old-age services, and explore the establishment of a long-term care insurance system. We will fully liberalize the market for aged care services and support various market players to increase the supply of aged care services and products through purchasing services and equity cooperation. This has pointed out the direction for the development of the national aging cause in the coming period.
2015165438+1October 20th, the second national dialogue on vocational education and industry for the elderly was held in Beijing Social Management Vocational College. The meeting discussed some hot issues such as the integration of China's pension industry and vocational education, and the "Thirteenth Five-Year" development plan for the national aging cause.
In the next five years, what changes will be made in the development focus of China's aging cause? This is a topic worthy of everyone's attention.
Look to the future and plan the overall situation
Building a well-off society in an all-round way by 2020 is the first step of our party's goal of "two hundred years". During the 13th Five-Year Plan period, we should pay more attention to the characteristics of building a well-off society in an all-round way.
At present, there are more than 70 million poor people in China, so it is urgent to get rid of poverty. For the "Three Five" and "Five Guarantees" elderly people, we should improve their welfare in line with the principle of wide coverage and basic protection. At the same time, establish a mechanism to guarantee the basic bottom line, and expand the government's assistance to the physically disadvantaged groups, mainly the elderly in the "Three Five-Year Plan" and "Five Guarantees", to the socially disadvantaged groups such as the elderly, mentally retarded, empty nesters and low-income groups. Building a well-off society in an all-round way requires the government to establish a mechanism to guarantee the basic bottom line.
With the promotion of new urbanization, it is estimated that the aging degree of rural population will always be higher than that of cities and towns around 2050. Moreover, "raising children to prevent old age" has failed in rural areas. Under the background of new urbanization, it seems difficult for many farmers to realize their vision of "supporting the elderly with land". Therefore, in the next five years, the national cause of aging should focus on rural areas and achieve urban and rural planning.
During the "Thirteenth Five-Year Plan" period, more attention should be paid to providing for the aged in internet plus. 165438+1October 20th, the general office of the State Council forwarded the Notice on Guiding Opinions on Promoting the Combination of Medical Care and Nursing Care and Old-age Care Services from the Health and Family Planning Commission and other nine departments, proposing to strengthen information support. Actively carry out the project of providing information for the aged and community services to benefit the people, and make use of the basic information files, electronic health records and electronic medical records of the elderly. To promote the docking of the community pension service information platform and the regional population health information platform, integrate information resources, realize information sharing, and provide information and technical support for the combination of medical care and nursing services.
According to statistics, the output value of the tertiary industry in China has surpassed that of the secondary industry, accounting for about 50% of the national economy, but the social service industry only accounts for 0.9% of the tertiary industry. During the "Thirteenth Five-Year Plan" period, if the proportion of social service industry in the tertiary industry rises to 3%-5%, 7.5 million-10/00000 old-age service jobs will be created. There is much to be done to develop the aged care service industry in the future.
At the same time, the demand for nursing staff for the aged in China is about100000, but at present, there are less than 600000 nursing staff and less than100000 certified employees in China. Therefore, the contradiction between supply and demand of aged care professionals in China is prominent. The "Thirteenth Five-Year Plan" proposes to build a modern vocational education system and promote the integration of production and education and school-enterprise cooperation. Optimize the layout of disciplines and specialties and personnel training mechanism, and encourage qualified ordinary undergraduate universities to change to application-oriented ones. The training of professional talents in school pension services should be accurate, and "professional managers" with strong comprehensive ability should be trained, instead of simply training talents who provide simple manual labor for the elderly.
The 13th Five-Year Plan proposal also points out that the market for aged care services should be fully opened, and various market entities should be supported to increase the supply of aged care services and products through purchasing services and equity cooperation.
Therefore, during the "Thirteenth Five-Year Plan" period, the government should clarify the relationship between national policies and the market. The government cannot be a referee and an athlete at the same time. The government has issued policies to support social capital to intervene in old-age care services, so that for-profit institutions can enjoy non-profit treatment and the market can dominate the allocation of social resources. Only with the joint efforts of an effective market and a promising government can the aged care service industry in China develop greatly.
