The Minister of Health François Braun at the Nantes University Hospital to take stock of his “flash mission”, a visit far from pleasing the unions

François Braun, the Minister of Health and Prevention, was traveling to Nantes this Wednesday, August 3.

The Minister of Health visited the emergency services of the Nantes University Hospital. He also visited the pediatric emergency services of the CHU as well as the Samu regulation service.

François Braun spoke with the management of each of these services.

On Tuesday, the minister was in Brittany. He made the trip to the Rennes University Hospital, also as part of the government’s “flash mission”.

“My method is to go into the field, to go to the level of the territories, to see what is going well, he said this Wednesday in Nantes, to see the originalities, to see the innovations that are made at the regional level, and here in Nantes I am spoiled, there are plenty of things that are done precisely to improve patient care, to reduce as much what can be done, the pressure on the hospital”.

As part of the “flash mission”, I also come to see if the tools we have made available are used and are effective

“Stop the suffering of the staff”they still launched to him as the minister got back into the car.

CHU trade unionists felt they had been sidelined from this ministerial visit.

“We were warned very late because otherwise we would have organized ourselves, we would have called on the staff to mobilize, estimated Olivier Terrien, Deputy Secretary General CGT – CHU Nantes, today we are living a real institutional mistreatment”.

“We have an absenteeism that has exploded, we have bed closures everywhere, we have deplorable working conditions”.

We are at 12% absenteeism, we have more than 260,000 days off work, that’s more than a month off work per agent
