Question 16419 — health establishments

Summary

Ms. Véronique Ludmann draws the attention of the Minister of Health, Families, Autonomy and People with Disabilities to the exposure of the hospital and medico-social network to the risks of flooding and high heat, which threatens the continuity of care at the precise moment when the population needs it most, and to the particular situation of the Oise department. A health facility must be able to remain operational during a flood or a heatwave. However, according to data used from FINESS files and flood zoning, around 37% of hospitals in France and Corsica are located in flood zones, as are 29% of nursing homes. Furthermore, nearly 60% of hospital buildings are dilapidated and poorly adapted to high heat. Anticipating these risks through adaptation work is less expensive for the community than suffering the consequences: inspection General of Social Affairs estimates the investment needs for the energy efficiency of buildings alone at between 1 and 2.5 billion euros per year, when extreme climatic events already cost nearly 20 billion euros per year. Oise is directly concerned. Crossed by the Oise, the Aisne, the Thérain and the Epte, the department has experienced significant floods, notably in 1993 and 1995, and is the subject of a prevention plan of the flood risk for the Oise and Aisne valleys upstream of Compiègne, covering municipalities such as Compiègne, Clairoix, Choisy-au-Bac, Thourotte or Ribécourt-Dreslincourt. Several health establishments and establishments for elderly or disabled people in the department are located in the immediate vicinity of these watercourses. The combination of this risk of flooding and the summer overheating of a building aging hospital system poses a concrete threat to the continuity of care in the Oise. She asks him if the Government intends to carry out a national census of health, social and medico-social establishments exposed to the risks of flooding and high heat, and initiate a multi-year plan for adapting buildings. She also asks him to specify the number and identity of hospitals, nursing homes and establishments welcoming people with disabilities located in a flood zone in the Oise department, as well as the protective measures planned, whether this concerns the adaptation of buildings, business continuity plans or cooling systems, to guarantee the safety of patients and caregivers in the department.
