Original title: Song of Laborers | "Daughter" of the Aged with Dementia for 9 Years She said she fell in love with the job
In an elderly care and rehabilitation center in Bazhong, Sichuan, Pu Yu, a nurse, stuck to this position for 9 years, brought warmth and hope to the rural disabled and dementia elderly with love, and also gained their love for her.
At Dachun Elderly Care and Rehabilitation Center in Tongjiang County, Bazhong City, Sichuan Province, more than 60% of the elderly are disabled and dementia. Puyu, the nurse, is very clear about the disease, eating habits, personality and other conditions of each elderly here. Yu Dinghua, the elderly with cerebral infarction, is very inconvenient to walk and move, and was very depressed when he first moved into the elderly care institution two months ago.
Pu Yu, Deputy Director of the Maintenance Department of Dachun Elderly Care and Rehabilitation Center, Tongjiang County, Bazhong City, Sichuan Province: There is a big gap between his health and his illness. He was very depressed, and he would cry when he shouted. Give him some ideological enlightenment and emotional dredging from all aspects, and then slowly ease up.
After calming the old man's mood, Pu Yu began to help the old man with rehabilitation training. From helping him walk to slowly releasing his hand, he could walk by himself. Now Yu Dinghua is recovering step by step.
Compared with the physically disabled elderly, it is more difficult to care for the elderly with dementia. It takes a lot of trouble to eat and dress every day. In the long-term work, Pu Yu has also explored a set of ways to care for the elderly with dementia. In order to enable the elderly to eat more, she needs to understand the living background of the elderly and talk about topics of interest with them.
The care work for the disabled elderly is not only dirty and tired, but also many disabled elderly will have psychological problems such as depression and irritability because they cannot accept the sense of powerlessness brought by aging. When she was just engaged in this job nine years ago, Pu Yu also felt aggrieved. In her daily life with the elderly, she gradually understood the pain of the elderly under age, disease and other problems. In her daily work, she used to show her love for the elderly by holding hands and hugging. What she did not expect was that the elderly also gave her the same care, This love not only made her stick to the job of nurse, but also made her fall in love with the profession from the bottom of her heart.
Pu Yu is not an elderly care worker. She has been engaged in elderly care for 9 years. From daily dining and walking care to defecation and turning over, getting on and off wheelchairs, etc., she has become an elderly care expert in the county by accumulating little by little. In the elderly care institution where she works, most of the nurses are from rural areas like her, lacking experience in caring for the elderly, Pu Yu specially formulated a plan to improve her nursing ability and taught them hand in hand.
Hu Cuiping, nurse of Dachun Elderly Care and Rehabilitation Center, Tongjiang County, Bazhong City, Sichuan Province: Through director Pu's training, we have a deeper understanding. For example, in the daily life of taking care of the elderly, we should not only take care of his food and daily life, but also pay attention to his physical and mental health changes. For example, we will play many roles in front of the elderly, such as his children, relatives, so that he will be more integrated into us.
