[Assessment in the home of the elderly following a first fall with Samu intervention]. / Évaluation au domicile des personnes âgées dans les suites d'une première chute avec intervention du Samu.

The Rising-Dom study is a project to evaluate the impact of home intervention by an experienced geriatric nurse on mortality and institutionalization of older people who fall. It is a multicentre randomised interventional study. The two-year follow-up will compare the evolution of two groups: intervention (assessment by the nurse and proposal of a care plan) vs. usual care (simple information on ageing well and on the prevention of falls at home). First feedback from the field.

[Content and application of Icope step 2: feedback from nurses]. / Contenu et application du step 2 d'Icope, retour d'expérience des infirmières.

With the ICOPE programme, the nurses received specific, theoretical and practical, training, that enabled them to broaden their field of competence. This approach has enabled them to expand and consolidate professional cooperation networks and to consolidate their, crucial, position in prevention in the broad sense of the term with the elderly. The aim of the Icope programme is to offer long-term monitoring of the senior citizen, as part of his or her life project.

[The digital tool for the prevention of dependency in the elderly]. / L'outil numérique au service de la prévention de la dépendance des sujets âgés.

Dependency care is a real public health issue. The lengthening of life expectancy and the increase in polypathologies require health policies that are as close as possible to the needs of the elderly. The World Health Organisation has set up a program to encourage healthy ageing. Based on this program, the Toulouse gerontopôle has developed digital tools for the prevention, evaluation, monitoring and management of ageing in order to detect and monitor 200,000 elderly people in Occitania within five years.
