Patient / Prescriber area THE ASSOCIATION OUR GROUP OUR SERVICES OUR KNOW-HOW CONTACT JOIN US NEWS > Our know-how > Social support Social support WHY ? When the disease strikes, it is sometimes a whole social and family balance that is disturbed. In this case, social support for the person may be necessary. In 2006, we therefore recruited a social worker. Its role is to find solutions to the financial, social and administrative consequences caused by your pathology. At your request, she will study your situation, assess your needs, direct you to the relevant social services and assist you in the procedures. MISSIONS inform you of your rights as a patient and allow you to exercise them, guide or support you towards the social structures adapted to your needs, make the link with other social workers, promote social support approaches. SOCIAL ACTION The missions of our social service are reflected in various concrete actions aimed at improving your daily life. Actions to improve the quality of life: support in the organization of home care in partnership with social services in the field (care services, personal assistance, carers, etc.), fight against isolation ( putting in touch with patient associations and neighborhood associations), holiday vouchers. Actions that improve delicate financial situations: preparation of financial aid application files from social organizations, appeal to the AGIR à dom social fund . (management of excess electricity consumption generated by extractors and in certain situations of disability or loss of autonomy, co-financing of equipment, electric wheelchairs, etc.). Administrative actions to help you assert your rights: help in obtaining CMU (Universal Health Coverage) or mutual insurance, help with files with the Departmental Handicap Centers, link with others social workers.
