It is generally believed that volunteers are people who voluntarily contribute their time and energy, and provide services to promote human development, social progress and social welfare without regard to material rewards.
Below is my personal experience on epidemic volunteers. You are welcome to read it.
Personal experience of epidemic volunteers 1 March 18 was my 32nd day of volunteer service in Wulitun Community, Jiangxia Economic Development Zone, Wuhan, Hubei Province.
More than a month ago, I came up with the idea of ??becoming a volunteer after receiving a notice from my employer that the resumption of work would be postponed.
During that time, I saw on the news days after days that medical staff rushed to the front wearing protective suits regardless of personal safety, and I saw groups of party members and cadres around me going down to work together with community workers, which made me feel quite sad.
calm.
No one is a bystander in this fight against the epidemic, and I am eager to do what I can.
At a small level, he just wants to do his part and brag in front of his children. In the face of catastrophic disasters, dad is also very brave and does not give up! At a big level, he can contribute a positive force to win this battle.
, is also a great honor! So, after obtaining the consent of the Wulitun community, early in the morning on February 16, I joined the community duty team under the jurisdiction of the community as arranged.
At that time, I didn't dare to tell my parents and children back home, for fear that they would be worried. After all, the news that their lover had passed away had already made them nervous for a while.
Like other comrades who went down to the community, our "equipment" on duty was very simple: a raincoat (used as protective clothing), a pair of latex gloves, and a disposable mask.
After being "fully armed", I felt like a "warrior" about to go to the battlefield, fully looking forward to experiencing some earth-shattering "big event".
Facts have proved that volunteer service is not about rushing into battle in one go, but requires patience and meticulousness in doing small things one after another.
There are 2,200 households in the community on duty, and there are currently 4,441 residents, among whom medical personnel and personnel from government agencies and institutions account for a large proportion.
During the peak hours of commuting every day, the flow of people and vehicles is very large, and the process of checking passes and taking body temperature is indispensable.
In addition, the first few days when I took up the post were during the upgrade of closed management, and there were many people who wanted to go shopping, buy medicine or have other needs.
The vast majority of people are very cooperative with us, but it is inevitable that we will encounter some people who do not understand us.
"A few days ago, I could go out once every three days. Why don't you let me go out today? I just want to buy a pack of cigarettes, soon!" "My daughter-in-law just gave birth to a baby. She doesn't want to eat potato stewed ribs. She wants to eat lotus root.
Can you let me go to the supermarket and I will never go out again?" "Why don't you let me go out? I want to complain to you!" Faced with these situations, I will work with other staff and do a good job based on the latest policy requirements.
Explain, and actively contact the community to purchase supplies and medicines for veterans in need. Many words have to be repeated hundreds of times.
At the beginning of the day, I didn't even bother to drink water. My back and legs ached from standing, and my mouth was dry.
At first, I thought it would be very difficult to keep on duty. After a few days, I realized that the difficulty was still to come, such as distributing "love dishes".
After all, in my impression, the general scene of donation is that large trucks loaded with vegetables and fruits drive out of the donation site, and then there are the smiles on the faces of the residents who have received the supplies.
But after experiencing it, I realized that after the truck arrives in Wuhan, there is a series of processes such as unloading, packaging, setting a distribution plan, and delivering it to residents.
Once, a batch of caring vegetables coordinated by the sinking unit arrived at the community at around 4 pm. From unloading to delivering them to each building unit, and then mobilizing volunteers to distribute them together, we were very busy until around 9 pm.
Due to the large number of residents in the community, "yesterday's story" had to be repeated the next day for buildings that were not distributed on the first day.
However, everyone always cheers each other up. After the work is done, when we see residents saying thank you in the group, and when we see more and more residents cooperating with us to check their passes and come to check their status, it is worth all the hard work.
In the blink of an eye, I have been busy for more than a month. No matter it is windy, rainy or sunny, I am in the community. To say it is not hard would be a lie.
One day when I got home from work and video chatted with my daughter, I discovered that there were marks on my face from the mask. My volunteer work was finally revealed to my parents.
But this time they did not object or feel particularly uneasy. After asking us to take precautions, they encouraged my wife and me to continue working hard.
When my daughter hung up the phone that day, she said in a sweet voice: "Mom and dad are great!" The sudden praise brought tears to our eyes.
There are thousands of volunteers like me in Wuhan.
They are located in every corner of the city and undertake much harder and more tiring work than me.
Or they are driving for medical staff who have difficulty commuting, or they are helping residents buy food and medicine in groups... Like me, they may not have any heroic deeds worthy of praise, but if they can contribute even as much as a firefly on the road to defeating the epidemic,
I believe that the faint light will illuminate the entire night sky together with the bright moon and stars.
The vegetation is spreading, and spring mountains are in sight.
At present, the situation of epidemic prevention and control is getting better and better, and the medical teams assisting Hubei and Han have begun to withdraw in batches.
Which city is more fun?
