Common questions in this town
- What time do you visit in Échirolles in the morning?
- Échirolles opens the round: the first visits start around 6.30 am, which is what makes fasting blood samples and insulin injections before breakfast possible.
- Do you visit assisted-living residences in Échirolles?
- Yes, in agreement with the facility, which must be told we are coming. We then agree a slot that fits the residence's meal and activity schedule.
- Parking is difficult near La Ponatière — is that a problem?
- No, but it costs us minutes. Give us the floor, the door code and the name on the entryphone at the first call: that is what lets us keep the time we promised.
