Question 19531 — end of life and palliative care

Summary

Mrs. Alexandra Valetta Ardisson draws the attention of the Minister of Solidarity and Health to the implementation of a new National Palliative Care Plan. Indeed, the one covering the period 2015-2018 and with a budget of 190 million euros, has now been completed. For several years, the observation of the need to develop palliative care has been unanimous. The implementation of three three-year plans devoted to this priority has also enabled significant progress to be made. However, according to data from the report from the National Center for Palliative and End-of-Life Care published in January 2018 on this theme, we can estimate that less than half of sick people requiring palliative support have benefited from it. The provision of palliative care would come up against several pitfalls: that of territorial disparities, that of development too focused on the hospital, that of the training of caregivers but also that of financing arrangements. It is important to understand this support in all its dimensions; human, technical, medical and financial. This is why she asks her to please indicate whether she intends to initiate a new National Palliative Care Plan and, if so, according to what guidelines, with what means and within what time frame.
