As a comprehensive grass-roots service platform for the disabled, "Home for the Disabled" has effectively improved the quality of life of the disabled, reduced the burden on their families and helped them realize their dreams of employment. This year, Huai'an City has undertaken the construction task of eight "homes for the disabled" in the provincial livelihood project of "renovating and upgrading 100 comprehensive homes for the disabled". Up to now, all the eight comprehensive "homes for the disabled" have been upgraded.
Since this year, Huai'an Disabled Persons' Federation has focused on improving the service level of "Home for the Disabled" to continuously improve the care and service system for people with disabilities, effectively enhance the basic public service level for people with disabilities, introduce policies, invest money, and create characteristic special services in combination with local resources, thus realizing the establishment and optimization of "Home for the Disabled".
On the basis of this year's provincial livelihood plan, Huai'an Disabled Persons' Federation highlighted the "integrated development" construction and formulated the Implementation Plan for "Building a Demonstration Project for the Integrated Development of Assistance for the Disabled, Elderly Care and Medical Care" in the 2024 Livelihood Projects of the Municipal Government, which further clarified the task objectives and construction standards and encouraged counties (districts) to build an integrated development-oriented "Home for the Disabled" with the help of elderly care service institutions, health service centers, village (community) service centers and other places. Efforts will be made to add the new "Home for the Disabled" featuring the normal operation, so as to provide services for the disabled nearby.
