What that changes here
For an older adult in Poisat, we set the time at the start of care and stick to it. The upper part of town is steep: in winter we factor that into the order of the round.
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.

Everything about this town — Poisat
Common questions in this town
- Poisat and Eybens share postcode 38320 — how should I give my address?
- Spell out the town at first contact. One postcode shared by two towns is the leading cause of routing errors, and therefore of delays across a whole round.
- Are time slots more flexible in Poisat?
- Yes, distances are short, so we can move a visit without breaking the rest of the round. It stays an adjustment, not permanent availability.
- What happens when it snows in the upper part of town?
- We fit the car for winter and leave earlier. If a street is genuinely impassable we call to agree another time the same day rather than cancelling.
Other care we provide here
- Diabetes and insulin injections
Injections, blood-glucose checks, foot monitoring, learning the technique.
- Chronic condition follow-up
Blood samples, treatment preparation, monitoring of side effects, nursing assessment.
