Abstract
The French 2008/2012 Alzheimer Plan is designed to improve the support given to elderly patients and their families. Objective: To describe the typology of the patients managed in a Geriatric multidimensional rehabilitation ambulatory care unit between 2008 and 2012. Programme de médicalisation des systèmes d'information database concerning the number of concomitant diseases and several specific indicators. The number of patients increased between 2008 (109) and 2009 (293) but then remained stable (about 300). The differences between 2008 and subsequent years were statically significant for the number of concomitant diseases (p < 0.001) and the number of days/patients (p < 0.01), but not for 2009-2012. The variations seem to be related to implementation of the Alzheimer Plan and a change in the organization of French gerontology health networks.
