Clermont. The modernization of the hospital center, the priority for 2025

Modernization on the agenda. All while respecting the ecological transition and managing finances rigorously. Here is the program drawn up by Patrick Déniel, director of the Clermont hospital center. During the traditional greeting ceremony, the head of the establishment detailed future investments for the years to come in general, and for 2025 in particular.

Among these the hospital nursing home holds a place of choice. First with the evaluation of its quality. An inspection which must take place in June. “It’s the absolute priority for the first half,” insists Patrick Déniel. “It’s about getting the recognition we deserve. I also see this as an opportunity to really improve the provision of care and support for our seniors. The upcoming distribution of a charter for well-treatment in EHPADs should accompany your commitment on this crucial subject. And to address the agents present: “You are on the right track, you must persevere.”

The objective: the construction of a new building from 2027

But this certification is only a first step regarding projects around residences for the elderly. Patrick Déniel is looking beyond 2025. 2027, more precisely, with the laying of the first stone of a new ensemble. This is the “new EHPAD-Store-USLD-pharmacy building, known as EMUP», Announces the manager.

“We are entering a phase of additional studies,” he continues. “In this context, we will deepen our reflection on the modernization of pharmacy activity.”

General consultations in February

Still regarding the modernization of the site, Patrick Déniel also discusses the rehabilitation of the former Primary Health Insurance Fund in Clermont. The city recently bought the building and then entrusted it to the hospital center. This, “to accommodate outpatient addiction and lingerie services,” specifies the director.

Patrick Déniel also mentions other modernization projects. In particular “therapeutic education and patient-partner programs, particularly in addictionology. Or even “the partnership with the gendarmerie will make it possible to facilitate as much as possible the journeys of victims of domestic violence and gender-based and sexual violence.

In February, “we will launch general medicine consultations in February,” announces the hospital manager. “The gerontology center will continue to expand its range of local consultations and we will ensure that new advanced consultations are opened.”
