solidarity-based business leaders at the bedside of seniors

The Arbresle hospital has just equipped its Ehpad (accommodation facility for the elderly and dependent, Editor’s note) with a Tovertafel, a video projector that is fixed to the ceiling and which projects on a table or on the floor , all kinds of dynamic games intended to stimulate the gestures and knowledge of residents suffering from cognitive disorders.

€ 1,500 collected for nursing home residents

Didier Pouget, manager of the Domaine de Rotisson and member of the Western Lyons Business Club, is at the origin of the charity operation, Les Vendanges solidaires. Concretely, business leaders come to harvest voluntarily for a day at the estate. Their “salary” is donated to the regional hospital. In two years, 1,500 euros have thus been collected thanks to business leaders.

But the cost of this device amounting to 11,500 €, a subsidy of 5,000 € was granted by the Department. The managing association of the hospital has completed the remaining 5,000 €.
