Question 12289 — women

Summary

Ms. Sandrine Nosbé questions the Minister of Health, Families, Autonomy and People with Disabilities on the action plan of Mr. former Minister of Health Yannick Neuder to fight against sexist and sexual violence (SGBV) in health from January 2025. This follows the worrying results of two surveys at the end of 2024 carried out by the National Council of the Order of Physicians and the National Nursing Order showing that within the health sector, one in two professionals declares having been or will be a victim of SGBV during their student or professional career. This plan, made up of 9 measures, should in particular make it possible to raise massive awareness about the fight and prevention against SGBV. However, it appears that at present, patients are not affected by the measures of this plan. The recent Le Scouarnec case and trial show that it is important and essential to act against VSS suffered by patients in healthcare establishments. A case concerning a Parisian obstetrician-gynecologist only confirms this. Indeed, the latter, currently indicted for intentional violence in the context of his medical practice, since 2022, can still practice. It is possible to say in this specific case here that the precautionary principle is not applied. Denial gender-based and sexual violence suffered by patients is no longer possible. As such, patients in healthcare establishments who are victims of gender-based or sexual violence should be included in this ministerial plan. Excluding them is not acceptable. For this plan to be truly effective, financial resources, a timetable and even indicators would also need to be decided. Which is still not the case. Without This plan, which is currently opaque, cannot be really effective and is only an announcement effect. In addition, to effectively combat SGBV in health, it would also be necessary to allow the participation of associations representing patients in consultations for the development, implementation and monitoring of this plan, in order to provide appropriate responses to all victims, professionals, students and patients. These requests and feedback are those of more than 200 personalities and organizations, including the VSS santé collective. In view of these elements, she asks whether she intends to include patients who are victims of VSS in this plan to combat VSS in health and whether she intends to integrate patient associations, in particular the VSS collective, into the consultations. Also, she asks him if this plan against SGBV in health launched by the former Minister of Health and Access to Care Yannick Neuder will include other ministries such as that of gender equality.
