Question 12753 — health establishments

Summary

Mr. Raphaël Arnault draws the attention of the Minister of Health, Families, Autonomy and People with Disabilities to the alarming situation in the Avignon hospital center and particularly in the operating theater. In fact, the operating room of the Avignon hospital center has been going through a major crisis since the end of 2022. In November 2024, this situation worsened, leading to the “right of withdrawal” of agents for “serious danger and imminent”. The latter regularly describe to the MP a particularly violent and dangerous working atmosphere, which would push many agents to burn-out. An independent expert report assessing working conditions and psychosocial risks in this service points to: institutional violence; a structural impossibility of respecting the elementary and fundamental rights of agents; a chronic and structural disorganization of the operating room with off-ground management; overexposure of agents to psychosocial risks; situations of severe professional burnout with a continuum of psychological suffering; shortcomings in the assessment and prevention of professional risks This extremely violent establishment governance which is assumed, carried out and imposed raises questions. How is it possible to allow such actions to take place within the hospital public service in an establishment supporting the Vaucluse territorial hospital group? Despite numerous alerts addressed to the management of the establishment and the competent authorities, the situation has not improved and no action has been taken. This situation is the vector of suffering among agents and could continue to give rise to situations dramatic. Faced with this lack of sufficient responses provided locally, he asks what measures the Government intends to take to guarantee the protection of the health of agents, the safety of patients and the continuity of the public hospital service within the Avignon hospital center and more broadly to prevent and treat such situations of serious danger in public health establishments.
