Disability support at Lab Santé Midi Libre

A subject as vast as it is significant in today's society, disability was at the heart of the debates during three round tables organized at the time of the last Lab Santé Midi Libre of the year 2024, at the newspaper's headquarters in Saint-Jean-de-Védas, Wednesday, with the exceptional participation of Didier Jaffre, president of ARS Occitanie.

Inclusion, accessibility, schooling, what are the prospects ?

The third round table presented some important measures.

The self-regulation system (DAR). Myriam Faure from the Fontcaude Ugecam Occitanie medical center presented DAR :“In September 2023, a self-regulation school integrated a 17-class school in Castelnau-le-Lez. The team is made up of an educator, a medical-psychological assistant, a neuropsychologist, and a teacher. Six children are involved in this system. We work with the entire school.”

LABSANTÉ

Human Lab of the Institut Saint-Pierre. The Human Lab of the Institut Saint-Pierre in Palavas-les-Flots is a space created to find technical aids. “We start with the need and work to find the technical solution,” explains Benoît Sisjobert, a prominent member of the Human Lab. “This will be documented and freely shared.” For example, the MoldFinger project allows Michel, an astrophysicist and quadriplegic, to use his iPad on a daily basis with an ergonomic finger cot.

The Fratsa project. The Fratsa project was based on the observation that the prevalence of developmental disorders is high, even more so among relatives of autistic children. “This involves assessing the relevance of a simple system with a questionnaire completed by parents,” explains Amaria Baghdadi, professor in charge of the Peyre Plantade child and adolescent psychiatry department at Montpellier University Hospital. Detecting disorders in children as early as possible allows for appropriate care and helps caregivers gain a better understanding. In Occitanie, around 100 families were consulted and 60 children were identified as suffering from disorders. The system is already relevant.”
