Le programme « médiateurs de santé - pairs » est un projet pilote qui développe une stratégie inédite en France par la formation et la professionnalisation de la pair-aidance dans le cadre de la prise en charge des troubles psychiques. En d'autres termes, un ancien patient rétabli peut, au travers du savoir tiré de son expérience, apporter aide et soutien aux patients actuellement pris en charge. Ce projet révolutionnaire s'inscrit dans un mouvement plus général d'autonomisation des patients. Mais comme toute révolution, celle-ci ne se passe pas forcément dans la douceur, et les résistances, voire les oppositions, ont été et sont toujours nombreuses : reconnaissance du médiateur comme un professionnel et non plus comme un usager, crainte de la part des personnels de santé de cette nouvelle organisation, risque pour le médiateur de se confronter à sa maladie, etc. Et pourtant, cette expérience menée dans trois régions françaises a aussi apporté bon nombre de points positifs : revalorisation des malades, anciens patients qui gagnent en estime de soi et se sentent capables de revenir dans la vie active. Dans cet ouvrage, la parole a été donnée à tous les acteurs de ce projet ambitieux et novateur : psychiatres, sociologues, psychologues et bien entendu, médiateurs. Le résultat en est un patchwork de points de vue et d'expériences qui met en lumière la construction d'une révolution intranquille...

There could be as many as 300 million caregivers in the global workforce providing care for loved ones - elderly parents, a life-partner with a health condition, or a disabled child/sibling or close friend who needs support. As populations age around the world and welfare support declines, the number of people voluntarily caring for another will grow. However, despite the demands and pressures that caregivers are under, many organisations offer little practical support to employees - support that, if provided correctly, will benefit both employee and employer. Take Care is a practical guide that enables employers to better understand and support employees with caring responsibilities. It presents this as part of good management practice that strengthens organizational resilience and sustainability, and also argues that this is now an integral element of being a responsible employer and organisation. The book includes practical examples from more than fifty employers around the world, from small businesses to global enterprises, as well as public sector and NGO examples. It also features the personal stories of individuals in the workplace who have successfully championed change.
