Question 5390 — elderly people

Summary

Ms. Brigitte Barèges draws the attention of the Minister to the Minister of Labor, Health, Solidarity and Families, responsible for health and access to care, to the control plan planned in accommodation establishments for dependent elderly people (EHPAD) and announced by Olivier Véran. On March 8, 2022, following the damning revelations of the Orpea scandal highlighting unacceptable practices in many EHPAD, the government announced an ambitious control plan aimed at inspecting all 7,500 French establishments. This plan, initially planned for two years, was to make it possible to assess compliance with the standards and rules in force and to sanction any deviations observed. However, three years later, the results of this control plan reveal serious shortcomings. According to information recently published in “le Canard chained", only 23 administrative sanctions and 19 reports to the prosecutor were issued, the majority of the controls being based on the examination of documents and not on physical inspections of establishments. Concerns then exist about the effectiveness of this system, as well as the sustainability of the means put in place to ensure rigorous monitoring. In this context, she would be grateful if he would kindly make her know in detail the progress of the EHPAD control plan announced on March 8, 2022 and more precisely, the measures envisaged by the Government to strengthen the effectiveness of the control of EHPADs and guarantee respect for the rights and safety of residents.
