Support for older adults at home in Échirolles

Inside our area

What that changes here

Many of our long-term older-adult follow-ups are in Échirolles: personal care, monitoring, nursing assessment, with the same pair of nurses month after month. Being close by means we can come back the same day if things change.

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

  • Regular visits are also there to spot change: appetite, hydration, mobility, confusion.
  • Pressure-sore and fall prevention are built into every visit, not treated separately.
  • We keep family carers informed of what we observe, within professional confidentiality.
  • Three years in acute geriatric medicine at the university hospital: we recognise decompensation as it begins.

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.
