ABSTRACT
FOR AN INSTITUTIONAL OUTREACH APPROACH IN EMERGENCY MEDICAL SERVICES. The “outreach” approach has become the new paradigm of social action. With the creation of regional health agencies, the decompartmentalization between curative medicine, preventive medicine and medico-social care is accelerating. The political will to transpose social tools to the medical field requires removing the confusion between the logic of “outreach” (of Samusocial) and “outside the walls” (of Samu). Especially since Samu, as interface organizations, are privileged hospital actors for this decompartmentalization. The approach initiated by the pediatric Samu of Paris shows that this transposition is possible, both at the individual and institutional levels.
