Question 17502 — dependency

Summary

Mr. Jean-Michel Brard draws the attention of the Minister of Health, Families, Autonomy and Disabled People to the crucial issue of dependency care, a major issue for elderly people and their families, particularly in Loire-Atlantique. Indeed, in this department, as in other territories, waiting times for access to nursing homes remain very long and home help is often insufficient to meet the growing needs of people losing their autonomy. For example, in certain areas of Loire-Atlantique, families have to wait more than a year to obtain a place in an establishment, while home care services struggle to recruit and maintain a quality offer, due to a lack of human and financial resources. In addition, financial aid (like APA) does not cover always cover the full costs linked to dependency, leaving families with significant out-of-pocket costs, which can reach several hundred euros per month. In this context, he asks what concrete measures the Government intends to implement to reduce access times to nursing homes and strengthen reception capacities, how it intends to support home help, particularly in terms of financing and recruitment, to allow better care for dependent people at home and if it considers a reform of the APA or other measures to reduce the remaining burden on families.
