Despite the revolt linked to the pension reform, the Head of State remains determined to continue his field trips. Emmanuel Macron goes Tuesday, April 25 to Vendôme, in the Loir-et-Cher, on the theme of health. Accompanied by the Minister of Health François Braun, he will visit the multidisciplinary university health center (MSPU) of the city.

He will discuss with the nursing staff on “problems of access to care, attractiveness of the profession and training”, said the Elysée, in a context of growing medical desertification in the territory. This health center is made up of doctors, midwives and nurses. In conjunction with the University of Tours, it trains young doctors every year.

To fight against medical desertification, Mr. Macron abolished the numerus clausus, which limited the training of new doctors, and doubled the number of health centers – there are 2,251 today in France – but the needs remain crying out.

To “re-engage”

During his greetings to health actors on January 6, he promised to speed up the recruitment of medical assistants, who can perform simple acts to lighten the burden on doctors, and pledged that patients in long-term condition (ALD) without a treating doctor are offered one by the end of the year.

Emmanuel Macron, very unpopular since the forced adoption of the pension reform, has announced his intention to “re-engage” all over the place in the debate, with the stated desire to get in touch with the French and to appease the country by July 14. Very much behind during the review of the reform in Parliament, he resumed his travels in the provinces at the rate of two outings per week. The first two, in Bas-Rhin on Wednesday and Hérault on Thursday, were greeted with boos.
