Question 16318 — personal services

Summary

Mr. Maxime Michelet draws the attention of the Minister of Health, Families, Autonomy and People with Disabilities to the continuity of home care in the event of a fuel supply crisis. Home health providers (PSAD) provide essential missions daily to millions of patients such as the installation, maintenance and monitoring of oxygen therapy devices, assisted ventilation, artificial nutrition or even home infusion. These interventions allow many patients to remain at home while benefiting from essential care, while helping to relieve congestion in hospitals. However, recent tensions over fuel supplies as well as the international geopolitical context have highlighted the vulnerability of these activities, which rely on travel daily work of field teams. A lasting interruption of access to fuel could compromise the continuity of sometimes vital care and lead to new hospitalizations that are nevertheless avoidable, to the detriment of patients and the health system. If, during previous crises, certain prefectures have put in place one-off priority access systems to service stations for different categories of professionals. health, there does not appear to exist to date a national framework explicitly identifying home health providers among the priority actors in the event of supply restrictions. In this context, he asks it to specify the arrangements currently planned to guarantee the continuity of care provided by home health providers in the event of a fuel shortage. He also wants to know if the Government plans to explicitly include PSADs among professionals benefiting from priority access to fuel when implementing exceptional rationing measures or restricting access to service stations.
