Question 44121 — health professions

Summary

Mr. Cédric Villani draws the attention of the Minister of Solidarity and Health to the working conditions of caregivers and childcare assistants in critical care and resuscitation services. For two years, intensive care units have been hit hard by the effects of the health crisis. The caregivers respond, wave after wave, but they are physically and psychologically exhausted. The consequence The main cause of this exhaustion is the flight of hospital staff, leading to significant turnover in these services and a deterioration in the quality of care. In this regard, the payment of a bonus of 118 euros per month to nurses and managers of these services from January 2022, announced by the Prime Minister, is welcome and marks the start of necessary recognition of the “specificity of resuscitation”. However, caregivers and childcare assistants working in intensive care are excluded from this bonus system. This situation is today a source of incomprehension and legitimate discontent among nursing assistants and childcare assistants, who work in pairs and are coordinated with nurses and doctors. Their missions are complementary; they too suffer from working conditions that degrade. In addition, resuscitation requires specific and additional skills, which go far beyond their duties and training. Monitoring and caring for an intensive care patient requires real qualifications and specific skills that each nursing assistant and intensive care childcare assistant acquires. Tested by the health crisis, they now feel forgotten and despised. Thus, he asks him if he plans, on the one hand to remedy this unjustified imbalance, by allowing the payment of the bonus to all intensive care personnel and on the other hand to commit additional resources to resolve the growing difficulties experienced by these units.
