The challenges of the Optimédoc project:

Optimédoc is an interdisciplinary and multi-professional course for the elderly around a city-hospital collaboration. The general practitioner, the dispensing pharmacist as well as the hospital support system made up of a hospital pharmacist and a geriatrician work together around the drug management of people aged 75 and over, polymedicated, hospitalized or no, presenting a significant iatrogenic risk (all the undesirable effects caused by taking one or more drugs) .

The objective of this course is to optimize the medical care of elderly patients with the help of decisions made during RCP (multidisciplinary consultation meetings) between the city and the hospital.

The Optimédoc system:

The inclusion of the elderly subject at high iatrogenic risk in the system is done:

• for patients living in town: following identification and referral by the attending physician to this system by telephone on 02 31 06 53 17 .
  The initial screening criterion is a prescription containing more than 5 drugs for people aged 75 or over.
• for hospitalized patients: following identification and intra-hospital referral to this device with the agreement of the attending physician and the patient.

The course is divided into 4 stages:

1. Inclusion
2. Specialized assessment
3. Consultation
4. Follow up
