Before entering the canteen, the reporter saw the sign of the “elderly canteen” in the campus passage. In the canteen, there are special windows for caring lunch for retired teachers and teachers of China Agung and service windows for caring lunch for elderly people, with rich dishes. “I live nearby and come here to eat often, mainly because it is very convenient. The government has opened a love window for the elderly to eat for the elderly, so that the elderly can enjoy the benefits. I think it’s great.” Uncle Chen, a retired teacher from Huanong, said happily.

Why does the elderly dining service window open in colleges and universities?

This can also be regarded as sharing of resources to help the community share the pressure; at the same time, it also contributes love to help some elderly people.” However, due to the limited venue and staff, there are also a large number of elderly people who go to the canteen to eat, which has caused some complaints between faculty and staff and the elderly.

For example, Taihe Town, Baiyun District, has cooperated with Volkswagen Restaurant since the end of February this year to build it into one of the town’s community home-based elderly care meals.

Mentality: Is it rude to eat at the elders’ canteen?

Some elders believe that the elder canteen is a place where only elderly people who are not cared for will go. Such institutions are similar to rescue stations or shelter.Therefore, it is very rude and even embarrassing to eat at the elders’ canteen. The reporter found that this was not the case when he visited. First of all, the software and hardware are more particular, and secondly, the cafeteria is just a happy scene of chatting and eating.

Shegong Liu said that they had conducted a survey and the elderly who went to the elders’ canteen for dining mainly for lunch from Monday to Friday. Most of the family members were responsible for catering during the rest of the time. Not only do you not feel ashamed, but you also eat with relish.

Grandma Liu, who enjoys a meal of 11 yuan, said, “I come here to eat every Monday to Friday, and I am very happy.” Grandma Cai, who enjoys a meal of 7 yuan, said, “I have been eating it since I opened it all the time. The food environment here is very good, and the social workers here are also very familiar with me.” Grandpa Tang, who enjoys a meal of 9 yuan, said, “The dishes prepared every day are different, I like it very much.”

In addition, the elders’ canteen does indeed bring happiness to the old neighbors. Grandpa Zhang, who has a “one-yuan dining”, has a monthly retirement salary of 1,600 yuan. He is not only a “three-no-person”, but also a disabled and disabled person, a widowed elderly person. He was unable to move and needed to use crutches, and the “one-yuan dining” really helped him. If it is not the elder cafeteria, he needs to walk to a far-reaching vegetable market and buy one-person dishes, or ask the neighbors to bring him some food along the way, and then cook a small pot by himself.
