This work is intended as a brief but focused compilation to assist with diagnosis and management of the most common serious medical problems in the rapidly growing geriatric population. The geriatric population recently expanded by the fact that the baby boomers have reached the milestone of 65 years of age in the past 5 years. Tips for diagnosis, medication administration, and logistics of cost-effective management in the health-care continuum are presented in this book. The latter often consists of a journey from home to medical office to emergency room to hospital bed to intensive care unit to long-term acute care hospital to skilled nursing facility to long-term residential facility and/or back home, which is also reviewed in the book Geriatrics.

Deuxième numéro de la collection Sâges, initiée par la Chaire de médecine générale, l’ouvrage que vous tenez en mains est consacré à un nouveau thème ayant trait à la personne âgée : les échelles d’évaluation. Les soins procurés à « nos vieux » se sont vus progressivement empreints des avancées de la science, et, avec elle, d’instruments de mesure. C’est sur cette réalité que nous avons voulu porter des éclairages issus de différentes disciplines et de diverses expériences : le regard du médecin généraliste de terrain, du gériatre, du chercheur, du sociologue, du philosophe.

This study reports on the latest trends in long-term care policies in nineteen OECD countries: Australia, Austria, Canada, Germany, Hungary, Ireland, Japan, Korea, Luxembourg, the Netherlands, New Zealand, Norway, Mexico, Poland, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, the United Kingdom, and the United States. It studies lessons learned from countries that undertook major reforms over the past decade. Trends in expenditure, financing and the number of care recipients are analysed based on new data on cross-country differences. Special attention is given to experience with programmes that provide consumers of services with a choice of care options, including cash to family caregivers. Concise country profiles of long-term care systems and an overview on demography and living situations of older persons make this complex policy field more accessible.

Cette étude rend compte des dernières évolutions des politiques en matière de soins de longue durée dans dix-neuf pays de l'OCDE : l'Allemagne, l'Australie, l'Autriche, le Canada, la Corée, l'Espagne, les États-Unis, la Hongrie, l'Irlande, le Japon, le Luxembourg, le Mexique, la Norvège, la Nouvelle-Zélande, les Pays-Bas, la Pologne, le Royaume-Uni, la Suède et la Suisse. Elle étudie les enseignements tirés de l'expérience des pays ayant engagé des réformes de grande ampleur au cours des dix dernières années. L'évolution des dépenses, des financements et du nombre des bénéficiaires des soins est analysée sur la base de données nouvelles concernant les différences observées d'un pays à l'autre. Une attention particulière est accordée aux programmes qui proposent diverses solutions aux consommateurs de ces services, et notamment aux prestations en espèces aux aidants naturels. Des profils concis des systèmes nationaux de soins de longue durée et un aperçu de la démographie et des conditions de vie des personnes âgées rendent plus accessible ce domaine politique complexe.
