In his greetings to healthcare stakeholders last January, the President of the Republic had defined two clear objectives: to set a course for caregivers by restoring meaning and attractiveness to their profession and to promote daily accessibility to care for French.

Visiting the Rouen University Hospital, Prime Minister Élisabeth Borne, accompanied by Mr. Aurélien Rousseau, Minister of Health and Prevention and Mrs. Agnès Firmin Le Bodo, Minister Delegate, in charge of Territorial Organization and Health Professions , announced new measures to improve the working conditions of healthcare workers. They aim to respond to the main concern of the French: improving access to care.

As an extension of the twenty already simplified medical procedures (renewal of prescription glasses at the optician, vaccine against the flu or DT polio at the pharmacy, etc.), the Prime Minister has expressed her desire to go further for two everyday illnesses : angina and cystitis. It will therefore be proposed to open up the possibility of going directly to a pharmacist, who, after a rapid diagnostic test, can give antibiotic treatment if this is necessary.

The Prime Minister reaffirmed her desire to make better use of night work, Sundays and public holidays.

Thus, working at night will be from next January, paid 25% more than during the day. For work on Sundays and public holidays, the current allowance will be increased by 20%.

For doctors, the upgrading of 50% of guards is made permanent and extended to the private sector while the remuneration of on-call duty will be reviewed to allow alignment from above with the system that exists in the private sector.

The Prime Minister also recalled that the attractiveness of the hospital also depends on a modernization of its organization and working conditions as well as greater proximity in day-to-day decision-making. She thus asked the ministers to intensify the work to attract and build loyalty in the health and care professions.
