DAPHNE: AÉSIO SANTÉ’S REINFORCED HOME SUPPORT SYSTEM
As the majority of French people age, they want to remain in their own homes for as long as possible. It would be ideal to be able to benefit at home from services equivalent to those offered in a nursing home. AÉSIOSanté and other FNMF (Fédération Nationale de la Mutualité Française) mutualist players are developing a reinforced home support system. At AESIO SANTÉ, this device is called DAPHNÉ.

How to reconcile old age and independence

“The ageing of our population raises a […] challenge, […] namely that of old age, of dependence, a subject that makes us uncomfortable.
