Service of General geriatrics

The Geriatrics and Palliative Care Department of Bretonneau Hospital is located in the heart of Paris's 18th arrondissement.
We welcome more than 550 patients/year to the Short Stay Department, from Bichat's SAU (60%) and the city (40%). Referred patients suffer from acute problems such as heart failure, infections, non-surgical fractures, cancer pathologies, endocrine problems, difficulties in maintaining a home environment and cognitive disorders without behavioral problems...
The Soin Médicaux et de Réadaptation (SMR) welcomes patients with a view to rehabilitation before a return home or entry into an institution. We have specialized SMRs: ortho-geriatrics, TAVI post-implantation, post-stroke, follow-up care on discharge from the infectious and tropical diseases department.
The two Palliative Care Units (USP)accommodate patients at the end of life or in temporary and short respite in the context of chronic, progressive illnesses.
The Long-Term Care (LTC)is a medicalized living environment for dependent patients (GIR 1 and 2) requiring heavy technical medical care.


Related department: INVICTUS (emergency, internal medicine, infectious and tropical diseases, mobile palliative care teams, medical resuscitation and continuous care, in partnership with Saint-Louis, Lariboisière - Fernand-Widal, Bichat - Claude-Bernard and Beaujon University Hospitals).
