About this study
Official title: Identification of Difficulties During a First Request for a Personal Autonomy Allowance by Beneficiaries and Identification of the Role of the Attending Physician During This Request.
The objective of this study is to identify the difficulties when first applying for a first Resource Allocation (Personal autonomy allowance - APA) by beneficiaries and their relatives through a qualitative study and secondarily identification of the role of the attending physician during this request.
Read the detailed description
The APA, introduced since the French law of 2001 aims to improve the care of people with loss of autonomy.
A regular assessment of autonomy in the elderly should be carried out in order to implement ABS as early as possible. The aim is to set up the necessary home help to avoid or delay institutionalisation.
It therefore seems essential to place oneself on the side of the beneficiaries and their relatives in order to identify the difficulties encountered during a first ABS application and their expectations as to the role of the general practitioner during this application?
