PAuSES is a training-action program for all informal caregivers and future healthcare professionals. It has two objectives: to set up a support action for informal caregivers and to enable students to learn about the day-to-day reality of informal caregivers.
This conference presents the organization and benefits of a program combining professional training and a personal assistance service. Linked to the research of the SCOHPICA-PA project, PAuSES could also contribute to the development of research on informal caregivers.
La présentation sera bientôt disponible ici (anglais).

Les proches aidant·es apportent une aide précieuse à la fois aux personnes en perte d’autonomie et au système de santé en général. Si ce rôle peut leur apporter quelques avantages, il convient également d’explorer les difficultés qu’il peut poser.
La recherche sur le burnout fournit un cadre riche pour comprendre les difficultés qu’ils et elles rencontrent. Cette présentation fera un bref historique du concept de burnout des proches aidant·es et expliquera comment il répond aux principales limites de la littérature existante.
Sur la base d’un modèle (Informal Caregiving Integrative Model) et de résultats empiriques, une structure de facteurs de risque et de protection sera proposée pour mieux comprendre les sources de leurs difficultés. Cela nous permettra de mettre en évidence les points clés dans leur prise en compte, tant dans la recherche que dans la pratique clinique. Enfin, nous aborderons les perspectives du domaine dans les années à venir, notamment le rôle du projet SCOHPICA dans l’amélioration de notre compréhension des défis auxquels sont confrontés les proches aidant·es.

Dans le but de limiter l’admission des médecins à pratiquer à charge de l’assurance-maladie, différents dispositifs transitoires ont été adoptés au niveau fédéral depuis 2001. Le Conseil fédéral a souhaité qu’une solution pérenne de pilotage des soins ambulatoires soit mise en place, laquelle a finalement été adoptée par le Parlement en 2020. Sur le mandat de l’Office fédéral de la santé publique (OFSP), l’Observatoire suisse de la santé (Obsan) et le bureau BSS Volkswirtschaftliche Beratung ont développé une méthode portant sur la fixation de nombres maximaux de médecins qui fournissent des prestations ambulatoires. Reto Jörg présentera les grandes lignes de cette méthode, ainsi que ses points forts et ses limites. Ensuite, Julien Dupraz discutera comment ce dispositif est mis en œuvre dans le canton de Vaud.

The challenges and difficulties of informal caregivers: perspectives on caregiver burnout
As a part of the SCOHPICA (Swiss COhort of Health Professionals and Informal CAregivers) cohort symposium series, we are pleased to invite you to the conference presented by
Dr. PIERRE GÉRAIN
Post-doctoral researcher and scientific coordinator for front-line psychology at the University libre de Bruxelles
March 21 2024
12H30 – 13H30 – VIRTUAL FORMAT
Informal Caregivers provide much-needed assistance both to the person with a loss of autonomy and to the care system in general. Despite the benefits this role can bring to caregivers, it is also worth exploring the difficulties it can pose. The research on burnout provides a rich framework for understanding the difficulties faced by caregivers. This presentation will provide a brief history of the concept of caregiver burnout and explain how it answers to major limitations in the existing literature. Based on a model (the Informal Caregiving Integrative Model) and empirical findings, a structure of risk and protective factors will be proposed to better understand the sources of caregivers’ difficulties. This will enable us to define key points of attention in the consideration of caregivers in both research and clinical practice. Finally, we will look at the prospects for the field, particularly the role of the SCOHPICA project in improving our understanding of the challenges facing informal caregivers in the years to come.

The Nursing profession and the transition from work to retirement – a German perspective
As a part of the SCOHPICA (Swiss COhort of Health Professionals and Informal CAregivers) cohort symposium series, we are pleased to invite you to the conference presented by
PROF. HANS MARTIN HASSELHORN, MD
Department of Occupational Health Science, University of Wuppertal, Germany
December 7 2023
12H30 – 13H30 – VIRTUAL FORMAT
How do older workers anticipate their transition to retirement? This question will be addressed based on recent data from the representative German lidA-Study. The focus of the presentation lies on nursing.
In Germany, most older workers want to leave employment much earlier than legal retirement age. The dominant reasons given indicate the wish for a self-determined life. Poor work and health problems rank 4th and 5th. Nurses would like to exit earlier than other professional groups with a stronger impact of poor work and health problems. Yet, this profession also exhibits resources. A new concept will be presented to promote longer working of older nurses in hospitals in Germany.

In a long-term study, the ZHAW School of Health Sciences examined the career trajectories of a cohort of nurses who graduated in 2011/12 in Switzerland. The project was part of the Competence Network Health Workforce CNHW, a cooperation between Universities of Applied Sciences in Health in Switzerland. Six years after graduation more than 600 nurses participated in the final survey, representing 38% of the 2011/12 cohort. The research highlights that the early years in a nursing career involve professional development and frequent job transitions. Potential retention measures include improving working conditions, addressing work-life balance issues, and increasing recognition.

Over 1700 healthcare professionals were surveyed during the 1st data collection of the SCOHPICA national cohort. In this talk, we will explore in more detail the socio-professional data gathered and investigate their relationship with well-being and turnover intention. We will also examine how various factors such as workload, available resources, meaning of work, burnout or recognition at work, among others, are associated with professionals’ intention to stay in the profession and well-being. These findings may open up promising pathways for enhancing the satisfaction and retention of healthcare professionals in Switzerland.

Besoin et offre en relève dans le domaine des soins: éclairage du rapport national sur le personnel de santé 2021
Dans le cadre de la série de colloques de la cohorte SCOHPICA (Swiss COhort of Health Professionals and Informal CAregivers), nous avons le plaisir de vous inviter à la conférence modérée par Prof Annie Oulevey Bachmann:
Thème:
Dans son troisième rapport national, l’Obsan fournit une estimation des besoins en personnel de soins et d’accompagnement à l’horizon 2029. Pour ces analyses, on considère non seulement l’évolution des besoins de la population mais également les départs à la retraite et sorties précoces de la profession. Grâce à l’intense activité de formation de ces dernières années, le taux de couverture des besoins de relève s’est amélioré mais un écart conséquent persiste entre l’offre et les besoins pour le personnel infirmier.
Intervenante:
Dre Clémence Merçay, Cheffe de projet scientifique, Obsan – CH.
