The action of Petrochemical Street enhances the sense of security for the elderly, and volunteers are anxious... In hot weather, elderly people living alone suddenly lose contact with volunteers | Love | Petrochemical Street
Recently, Chen Changchun, a staff member of the Ten Villages Neighborhood Committee and a volunteer named "Love Roll Call" from Shihua Street in Jinshan District, came to Jinshan Hospital with condolences to visit Mr. Ye, a resident of the Ten Villages community. "Uncle Ye, are you feeling better?" Uncle Ye, lying in bed, smiled slightly and nodded. After several days of treatment, the elderly's condition has stabilized. "I am also very happy to see his current state," Chen Changchun breathed a sigh of relief and smiled.
During the hot season, the health status of elderly people in the community is worrying. Recently, on the basis of the "Love Roll Call" action, the Petrochemical Street has launched the "Care and Stay Connected, Call and See Every Day" action, aiming to ensure that elderly people living alone, especially those with poor health, can be called and seen every day to ensure that high-risk groups can be detected and rescued in a timely manner in case of accidents. Uncle Ye was the elderly person who was rescued in time during the operation.
As a paired volunteer for Mr. Ye's "Love Roll Call", Chen Changchun and the elderly have been good friends for many years. According to Chen Changchun's recollection, a few days ago at noon, he arrived at the Ten Village Dining Assistant as usual to check the dining situation of the paired elderly. At this time, it was 11:00, and as the other elders were already seated for dinner, Uncle Ye, who had always been punctual, was nowhere to be seen, which alerted Chen Changchun. "At that time, I quickly called Uncle Ye's phone and landline, but no one answered." So, after thinking about it and feeling something was wrong, Chen Changchun quickly rode an electric scooter to the old man's residence.
11: When Chen Changchun knocked on Uncle Ye's door, he faintly heard the groans of the old man coming from inside the house. Due to the elderly's habit of locking doors internally, Chen Changchun, who was eager to save others, tried several times to open the door but was unsuccessful. The situation was urgent, and Chen Changchun immediately informed the neighborhood committee and family of the situation. After obtaining the consent of the elderly person's family, he called for an unlocking master to open the door.
11: At 20, the door opened and Chen Changchun finally saw Uncle Ye, who had disappeared all morning, but his heart immediately hung in suspense. I saw the old man lying on the sofa, his legs curled up, and there was no air conditioning or fan in the room. The old man was sweating profusely and very weak. He slowly told Chen Changchun that he had been falling for nearly 3 hours... So, Chen Changchun immediately called 120 and replenished the elderly with water.
11: 35120 emergency personnel rushed to the scene. With the cooperation of medical staff and volunteers, the elderly person was delivered to the hospital for treatment around 11:50, and then the family members also rushed to the scene.
It took less than an hour from discovering the elderly person falling to being sent to the hospital for treatment. "The time when the elderly are sent over is very timely and within our treatment window," said Zhang Jianfeng, deputy chief physician of the Department of Neurology at Jinshan Hospital affiliated with Fudan University. Most patients with cerebrovascular accidents have the best emergency time within 4 and a half hours, and require surgical treatment within 6-8 hours. "Therefore, early detection of the condition and prompt medical treatment are the key factors for these patients to receive treatment.".
Under the strengthening of the "caring roll call" system, in recent years, several elderly people in Shihua Street who had sudden accidents like Uncle Ye have received effective treatment.
Recently, when volunteers and neighborhood committee staff from Petrochemical Street were delivering meals to their doorstep, they found that elderly man Yu, who lived alone without children, had a pale face and difficulty breathing. They immediately dialed 120 for emergency medical treatment. "Fortunately, it was delivered in a timely manner. If delayed further, it would endanger his life." After arriving at the hospital, Uncle Yu was immediately sent to the emergency room, and the doctor installed a heart stent for him.
Now, Uncle Yu has recovered and been discharged from the hospital. He excitedly thanks the neighborhood committee staff and volunteers, "This is the second time you have saved my life.". It turned out that during the epidemic, when volunteers called for names, they heard signs of a cerebral infarction in Uncle Yu. Later, they urgently sent the elderly person to seek medical treatment, saving his life.
It is understood that as of now, the "Love Roll Call" action in Petrochemical Street has sorted out 2781 special care objects, and more than 2 million roll call services have been carried out, with 46 elderly people receiving emergency assistance.
