Reform to encourage paramedics to research
Technically, "three new sections within the National Council of Universities for Health Disciplines are being created," according to the minutes of the Council of Ministers. These sections are those of the maieutics (midwives), the sciences of rehabilitation and rehabilitation (kinesitherapists, podiatrists, orthoptists, speech therapists, etc.) and nursing.
"This will allow for the university of training," Isabelle Derrendinger told allodocteurs.fr. This midwife has been working for a long time on the integration of maieutics into university. "The creation of a National University Council (UNC) will allow midwives to complete a thesis as midwives, without having to go through other fields of research. It was a form of renunciation of this first profession," adds the member of the National Council of the College of Midwives.
Further recognition of the paramedics
Isabelle Derrendinger praises a recognition of the sector as such: "We will institute midwives as lecturers, they will be able to continue in a research laboratory and this will eventually allow to be qualified as a professor universities. »
"This is a great day for our profession," the president of the Order of Nurses, Patrick Chamboredon, told AFP. Experienced nurses will be encouraged to conduct research - for example in how to relieve pain, overcome reluctance against vaccination, or advance the prevention of certain pathologies - since they will be able to now attainthe the title of Doctor of Nursing, he said. Until now, those who were active in research were doing so under the guise of another academic specialty.
"Catching up with France in these fields of research"
In a joint statement, the College of Nurses, Cefiec (representing training institutes) and Andep (directors of paramedical schools) welcomed a "chance for the French health system to catch up in research fields" too often neglected when they are heavily invested by researchers from other countries."
The aim is to "improve the clinical knowledge and care of our fellow citizens, but also the training of future caregivers," the three organisations say.
For its part, the Government stressed that this development would promote "the development of research activities in these areas where new knowledge is essential to understanding issues such as social inequalities in health, determinants of an inclusive society, disability (or) women's health."
