5 million French people often have difficulty juggling their caring role with their professional activity. Many caregivers are still unaware of their role, and know little or nothing about the help available. And yet, there are a number of ways to help.

At this round table, social service assistants from the UM and CNRS, surrounded by experts in their field, will present existing tools and resources for both caregivers and the cared-for. They will specifically address the situation of caregivers of dependent elderly people.

Speakers:

  • Marina Martinez-Canadas, social service assistant at the University of Montpellier;
  • Florian Bedjaoui, social service assistant at the University of Montpellier;
  • Estelle Jacquot, social service assistant for CNRS staff;
  • Frédéric Pizzo, occupational psychologist at the University of Montpellier ;
  • Camille Benzine, manager of the Paerpa framework service and of the Coordination Territoriale d'Appui 34 system;
  • Amélie Unal, independent legal representative for the protection of adults.
