Abstract:
It is crucial for all medical institutions to maximize the selection of their actors in strict accordance to equality. As medical administrators, were are questioned on the problems linked with compartmentalization. Our investigation has allowed us to confirm that the ensemble of actors, including the patient, regulates compartmentalization, and that all in all it works rather well. However, this regulation has a price. It has an impact on organization, the energy used, not to mention the cumbersome side-effects that would be felt. We have chosen to focus our research on the patient's role on regulation by using his/her testimony. The patient is never passive. Adaptation requires real efforts on the patient's part in order to adapt to this new environment, while at the same time economizing his/her strength. The regulation carried out is often standardized. The patient conforms, but against his/her will. Does the patient's admittance to the hospital make him/her a second-class citizen? Our results lead us to believe that the prevailing views advocate that the patient be at the heart of the system remain an objective.
