Nursing staff for the aged, a very promising career!

  The National Bureau of Statistics of China recently released the population data of China. Since 2022, China's population has entered a period of negative growth, and at the same time, the elderly population has entered a period of rapid growth. According to the data released by the National Bureau of Statistics, from 1962 to 1975, China's new population was 367 million, and these people will become old in the next ten years. In terms of age composition, the working-age population aged 16-59 is 875.56 million, accounting for 62.0% of the national population; The population aged 60 and over is 280.04 million, accounting for 19.8% of the national population, of which 209.78 million are aged 65 and over, accounting for 14.9% of the national population.

  China's elderly population is large, the aging speed is fast, the demand structure of the elderly is changing from survival type to progressive type, and there are still some problems such as uneven and insufficient progress in the old-age care service, which are mainly reflected in the low level of rural old-age care service, insufficient supply of home-based community old-age care and high-quality old-age care service, shortage of professionals, especially nursing staff, need to strengthen scientific and technological innovation and product support, and the coordinated progress of the industry needs to be improved. The importance and urgency of building an old-age care service system adapted to the aging process of the population are increasingly prominent, and the task is more arduous and arduous.

  Professional requirements and consumption ability are increasing day by day.

  With the improvement of per capita income and the gradual improvement of pension insurance, medical insurance and social welfare, the demand for more professional service quality for pension services is getting higher and higher, and the ability to pay for consumption is increasing year by year, which also provides market soil for the rise of pension service industry.

  With the aging becoming more and more serious, the problem of providing for the aged is the most important, especially for the only-child families and empty-nest elderly. Therefore, the old-age care service needs a large number of old-age care workers with professional knowledge and skills. The progress of the old-age care industry is not only conducive to solving the gap between old-age care and nursing talents, but also promoting the transfer of rural labor and promoting employment. Thus, as a new profession, the nursing staff for the aged has broad career prospects!

  The rise of nursing staff for the aged

  Nursing staff for the aged refers to professional service personnel who take care of the lives of the elderly and special groups (patients, semi-self-care and related people who can't take care of themselves). With the vigorous promotion of social welfare socialization in China and the arrival of the aging population trend, the nursing staff for the aged is a new profession, which will accompany the arrival of the global aging society and show the general trend that demand exceeds supply. There will be a great job market for nursing staff for the aged.

  Progress prospect of nursing staff for the aged

  At present, the gap of nursing professionals for the aged is very large, and there are more and more nursing institutions with labor shortage, so the career prospects of nursing professionals for the aged are relatively broad.

  1. When China enters an aging society, it generally needs nursing staff for the aged.

  China has stepped into an aging society, and the number of elderly people has increased sharply. How to "support the elderly" has become a topic of great concern to the society and the people. As a frontline worker in the "support for the elderly" industry, nurse practitioner has a huge demand;

  2. A generation of only children has taken charge, resulting in a sharp increase in demand.

  China's generation of only children has provoked the burden of small families. They have to be busy with their work, raise the next generation and take care of their elders, which is a huge burden of life. They hope that the elderly will live a comfortable and happy life. For these families, they will choose to spend money to ask nurse practitioner to take care of the elderly at home, and at the same time, such people have relatively high requirements for service personnel;

  3. Certified pension nurse practitioner is more popular.

  People with certificates will have better employment opportunities, higher income, better treatment and more trust from customers. At present, the market scarcity of the profession of providing for the aged in nurse practitioner, coupled with the low entry threshold, leads many employees to take up their posts without a license, and their quality is also uneven. For a professional nursing staff for the aged, besides cleaning and cooking, it is more important to take care of the elderly, including helping them to move, take a bath and communicate with their hearts.

  Salary of nursing staff for the aged

  The aging population is threatening, and the demand for old-age care is increasing day by day. In the National Medium-and Long-term Progress Plan for Civil Affairs Talents (2012-2022), it is proposed that the progress goal of aged care workers is from 30,000 in 2012 to 6 million in 2022. However, as of 2022, there are less than one million old-age caregivers in China, and the gap is huge. Recently, in order to attract talents, many places have also announced the subsidy policy for aged care workers. Front-line workers can enjoy a post allowance of 600 to 1,500 yuan per month, and they are given a one-time entry subsidy of 60,000 yuan, 50,000 yuan and 40,000 yuan respectively according to undergraduate graduates, junior college graduates and secondary vocational graduates.

  In addition, according to the data of the housekeeping platform, the monthly salary of the old-age care worker is 6000-8000 yuan; Primary aged care workers start with a monthly salary of 6000; Intermediate aged care workers start with a monthly salary of 7500 yuan; The monthly salary of senior nursing staff is about 8000 yuan; In Shenzhen, Beijing, Guangzhou and other first-tier cities, wages will be higher, with an average monthly income of about 9000 yuan.

  It has been exactly 20 years since China entered the aging stage in 1999. In fact, China's aging has many particularities. For example, among the 250 million elderly people over the age of 60, nearly 180 million suffer from chronic diseases, and the number of disabled and partially disabled elderly people exceeds 40 million. In addition, the home environment or public places of the elderly are not suitable, and the situation of population aging is becoming more and more serious.

  With the arrival of an aging society, the demand for senior pension in nurse practitioner is in short supply. The state has paid more and more attention to the cultivation of nurse practitioner for the aged, and the vigorous development of the nursing industry for the aged can not be separated from the growth of the contingent of nurse practitioner for the aged, which shows that the nursing industry for the aged has a broad prospect and a promising future!

  Social progress is changing with each passing day, and lifelong learning has long been the requirement of the times for everyone. Brothers and sisters who are interested in becoming senior pension in nurse practitioner must not miss the opportunity!
