Primary medical care: talk in Fribourg

Alain Berset defends the article on primary medical care in Fribourg. He makes it concrete with a story: Mrs Jungo, 83, with a heart condition and diabetes, leaves hospital after a hip fracture and returns home, where she lives alone.

Around her, a chain of professionals: physiotherapist, occupational therapist, home care, family doctor. The constitutional article, he says, aims to ensure that this chain holds everywhere in Switzerland.
