[Taking care of the families of air disaster victims]. / La prise en charge des families de victimes d'une catastrophe aérienne.

ABSTRACT

The medico-psychological emergency unit in Seine-Saint-Denis (93) was involved in managing the families of the victims of the AF447 flight crash which took place on the night of 31 May and 1 June 2009 between Rio de Janeiro (Brazil) and Paris. It is interesting to study the system set up at the airport, the symptomatology observed, and the parameters of the efficiency of the care provided.
