[How to improve social and professional reinsertion of patients with neurodiabilities ? Practical indications for the general practitioner].

One part of the population of neurolesioned patients is the transition of young patients with neurodisabilities to adult life. To guarantee favourable social and professional reinsertion is a major challenge, requiring inter-professional care. For this reason, in 2006 the CHUV, Lausanne created a transition-consultation framework with neuro-paediatricians and adult neurologists specialised in neuro-rehabilitation linked to a Swiss pilot social and professional reinsertion project collaborating with the invalidity insurance. As a model of the follow up of neurolesioned patients, this article reports the results of the reinsertion project that aims to bring awareness to the general practitioner of an inter-disciplinary care method adaptable to individuals. The holistic service saves time and improves the rate of successful reinsertion of young adults into social and professional life.
