Coming home after a hospital stay at home in Grenoble sud

Inside our area

What that changes here

Discharges from the university hospital and the private clinic often head to south Grenoble: we take over from the discharge day itself when the prescription reaches us in time. First visit within 24 hours when the round allows.

Reading the schedule…

A chosen slot is a preference held for 24 hours, never a confirmed appointment: the practice calls to set it.

How we work

  • First visit within 24 to 48 hours of discharge when the prescription provides for it.
  • We check the discharge prescription, the delivered equipment and your understanding of the treatment.
  • Monitoring of vital signs, pain and early warning signs.
  • Our hospital background lets us read a discharge report and call the right ward when in doubt.

Common questions in this town

Do you cover the whole of La Villeneuve and the Olympic Village?

Yes, the entire 38100 area is inside the sector, including Villeneuve, Village Olympique, Teisseire, Malherbe, Capuche and Alliés. Northern Grenoble remains case by case.

What happens if the lift in the building breaks down?

We still come, but tell us: in a tower block, taking the stairs changes the order of the round. A message the day before is enough for us to reschedule the visit properly.

Do you work with local pharmacies and GPs?

Yes. We call the prescriber as soon as a reading falls outside what was expected, and we tell you which nearby pharmacy can dispense the prescribed material without delay.
