In plain words
A rescue station gives you meals and a place to sleep, takes you to a hospital if you are sick, and helps you contact your family. If you have no money to get home, it gives you a ticket. You can generally stay no more than 10 days. You come and go of your own free will; it is not detention, and it does not hand out cash. The ticket is issued to the place where your household registration (户籍) is or where you live, so decide before you go where you want to end up.
