"Reading Tips" At present, China's urban and rural empty nest family more than 50%, rural left-behind elderly people accounted for 37% of the elderly population, rural and urban family pension conditions are obviously missing. It is imperative to speed up the development of social endowment service and deal with the aging of population.  "Priority development of social pension Services" was written "Twelve-Five" planning recommendations.  At present, there are some problems such as insufficient amount of the endowment service, insufficient investment, low specialization level and inadequate supervision.  During "Twelve-Five" period, our country will basically establish the Social endowment Service system which is based on the family endowment, the community service as the foundation, and the institution endowment as the Supplement.  November 7, Jiangsu Wuxi, the National Social pension Service System construction will be held here. The meeting revealed that at present, there are more than 50% empty nest families in urban and rural areas, some of the large and medium-sized cities reach 70%;  Speeding up the development of social endowment service and coping with the problem of population aging has become a major livelihood issue.  It is reported that, "Twelve-Five" period, China will basically establish a home for the elderly based, community service as the basis, institutional endowment for the Supplement, financial security and service delivery matching, free, low compensation and paid services combined, government-led, departmental synergy, social participation, public assistance, with Chinese characteristics of the Social endowment Service system.  There is a clear shortage of old-age beds Li Liguo, Minister of Civil Affairs, said that priority to develop social pension services is to speed up the construction of social pension service system.  Since 1999 our country entered the aging society, the aging accelerated development, and increasingly show the elderly population is large, rapid growth, aging, empty nest trend is obvious, need to care for the loss of energy, a high proportion of the elderly. Statistics show that by the end of 2009, 167 million of the elderly in China, 80 years old and above the elderly 18.99 million, accounting for 11.4%, most of them gradually into the half self or not self-care status.  In our country, there are 10.36 million and half-disability elderly people, 21.23 million of whom are 18.9% of the total population of the elderly, and they need to provide nursing care services to varying degrees. But in our country current endowment service, still exists the problem of total insufficiency. The total number of pension beds accounted for only 1.59% of the country's elderly population, not only below the developed countries ' 5%-7% ratio, but also lower than the 2%-3% level in some developing countries. Regional and urban-rural development imbalance, the layout is unreasonable, both "one bed difficult", there are "bed idle" phenomenon.  At the same time, there are problems such as insufficient investment, low degree of specialization and inadequate supervision. According to the introduction, "Twelve-Five" period, the city will be "three without" the elderly, the rural "Wu Bao Zhuolu" elderly and low-income disability, the elderly as the focus, will be free services, low service and paid services combined to fully develop the social pension services, towards the urban street community has the Social endowment service function, the society has the Home Endowment service organization, the County (district ) has a comprehensive social welfare center, the district city has many old-ageService agencies, each thousand old people have all kinds of old-age beds up to 30; rural Wu Bao Zhuolu concentrated support rate of more than 40%, rural disability can be the elderly access to care services, a conditional rural community to carry out the goal of home pension services. Excellent social workers are very scarce in the field of pension services, professional talent is very scarce.  Ministry of Civil Affairs officials said, to strengthen the professional construction of pension services, in the field of pension services to take the lead in the training and use of a number of highly qualified social workers. Due to lack of corresponding talent training and incentive mechanism, China's pension service professionals lack.  Take the old-age nursing staff as an example, the national latent demand is about 10 million people, but at present the national obtains the professional qualification only has tens of thousands of people, the Endowment Service system construction specialization degree urgently needs to raise. "The future of our country's pension service team will be a combination of specialization, professionalism and volunteers, the construction of a special combination, reasonable structure, good quality talent team, in order to improve the level of pension services to provide talent support."  Shing, vice minister of civil Affairs. Shing said that strengthening the professional construction of endowment services is one of the important tasks to promote the construction of social endowment service system. In order to establish the pre-service training of the dean of the Endowment institution and the system of the nursing staff holding certificates, we should cultivate and introduce the senior professional talents.  Strive to increase the relevant professional and curriculum of endowment service in institutions of higher learning and secondary vocational schools, strengthen training and accelerate the training of professionals in geriatric medicine, nursing, nutrition and psychology.  At the same time, we should vigorously carry out the old-age service voluntary service activities, and gradually realize the institutionalization, standardization and normalization of voluntary activities.  Pension services will be subsidized under the government's leadership, market-oriented, and widely mobilize social forces to participate in the development of the Pension Service system is a basic principle. Our country will perfect the government support system, for the city "three without", the rural "Wu Bao Zhuolu" The old person, adopts the way which the concentrated support or the dispersed support, guarantees its basic life not below the local inhabitant average living standard, and establishes the natural growth mechanism.  The establishment of the old age subsidy system, the gradual integration of older persons over 80 years of age into the old age subsidy coverage, monthly to meet the conditions of the elderly to the old age allowance. Shing revealed that China will establish a pension service subsidy system.  For low-income elderly, living alone, disability and other old-age pension difficulties, after assessment, take the form of government subsidies, for them to stay in the pension institutions or to receive community, home pension services, to provide support. At the same time, we will actively explore the establishment of long-term care insurance system led by the government. Encourage and guide commercial insurance companies to open up long-term care insurance business.  Strengthen the masses of long-term care insurance awareness, reduce the long-term high cost of nursing pressure.  In recent years, the state from the policy support to actively encourage social forces to participate in the construction of the pension Service system, and land, taxation, water, electricity and other aspects of a series of preferential support policies to encourage social forces to set up pension institutions. At present, the endowment institutions set up by our social forces are increasing rapidly, and the number of private pension institutions in some areas has surpassed the government's pensionOrganization, has become the important strength of our country's endowment service system. Some areas also vigorously explore the implementation of public building private, the government-run pension agencies entrusted to the management and operation of social forces, stimulating social forces to participate in the construction of the endowment service system enthusiasm.  But at the same time, because of the lack of understanding in some regions and sectors, coupled with the lack of rigid policy measures, many policies are difficult to implement. Li Liguo stressed that preferential policies should be further implemented to promote social forces to participate in the development of pension services.
