In Nancy (Meurthe-et-Moselle), an unscheduled care center relieves congestion in hospital emergencies. Patients consult without an appointment for non-vital emergencies.

Emergency services overwhelmed by dozens of patients, hours of waiting before being taken care of, and ever larger medical deserts, with fewer and fewer attending physicians. Will the headache of access to care in France find its solution with the new unscheduled care centers? In Nancy (Meurthe-et-Moselle), a center opened ten years ago, seven days a week from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. THEs patients consult without an appointment for non-vital emergencies.

Caregivers work in pairs

With 130 patients a day, for the flu, a sprain or an open wound, the center helps relieve hospital emergencies. The administrative part is ensured at the reception by the five salaried secretaries. To ensure rapid and effective care, caregivers work in pairs. The doctor occults and prescribes the care, his nurse takes over, while the doctor is already with another patient. Several openings of unscheduled care centers are planned in the coming months.
