The Prime Minister, Gabriel Attal, announced, Saturday January 13, 32 billion euros for the health sector within five years. Reaction from Frédéric Lapostolle, emergency doctor at the Avicenne hospital in Bobigny, in the 19/20 info.
How does Frédéric Lapostolle, emergency doctor at the Avicenne hospital in Bobigny, welcome Gabriel Attal’s promise? “Obviously we are not going to be choosy. But we must understand that in these sums, whatever they may be, there is a significant part of catching up, and (…) the situation has not stopped degrade”he comments, recalling that the latest report from the Drees mentions the closure of “6,700 beds in 2022”.
“Set things straight”
And “the weakest link is often the emergency room”Frédéric Lapostolle explains that it is necessary “overall, rethink the system”. “If there is not a proactive policy with this sum to put things straight and reorganize, we may have spent money for nothing”he believes.
So where should the money be directed first? The sinews of war are not only “lack of beds”conditioned by a policy of reducing beds but is also linked to the “lack of staff”. “Unfortunately, for years we have realized that we put bandages here and there, we patch things up, we tinker, but there has not been a complete overhaul of the health system”analyzes Frédéric Lapostolle.
