Replacement of interns at the public hospital: social damage is on the way…
The public hospital is cracking on all sides. This situation is partly explained by a worrying demographic situation, but has been accelerated by disastrous management of medical resources by the central administration. Thus, the Ségur de la santé has in no way provided the answers expected by the medical community, or even worse, it has created unprecedented irritants by establishing parallel remuneration grids resulting in a loss of seniority for hospital practitioners already engaged in hospital career.
As if that were not enough, the government, through the intermediary of the deputy Stéphanie Rist, saw fit to cap the medical interim which came however to help decimated medical teams and suggesting that the problem of the hospital was the work of “mercenary” doctors.
As if that were not enough, the government has seen fit to destabilize during this summer period the methods of recruitment of our fellow practitioners with diplomas from outside the European Union (PADHUE) working for long periods in public establishments without however recognizing their status as full hospital practitioner. This is how we arrived at a public hospital which is more like a ghost town and no longer has anything comparable to what it might have represented at the end of the Debré Ordinances.
To complete its macabre destruction of the public hospital, the administration has found nothing better than to allow interns to replace in public establishments. What might seem like an ingenious solution is nothing more than a makeshift solution whose motives have no other objective than to save money on the backs of our young colleagues. Indeed, failing to want to remunerate hospital practitioners at their fair value, the administration favors recourse to a vulnerable population which is itself already underpaid and whose every investigation, whether on working time or on mental health shows his level of exhaustion.
Thus, Young Doctors, protests against this destruction in order of the public hospital which is done to the detriment of our young colleagues and calls for a revaluation of all hospital statutes. In addition, Jeunes Médecins would like to warn the central administration that if both physical and moral damage should occur to the population of interns performing call duty in public health establishments or to the population coming to receive care, it will seize the criminal jurisdiction. to bring before the competent authorities those responsible for this announced fiasco.
