Tu verras maman, tu seras bien

Synopsis of Tu verras maman, tu seras bien

For the first time, the director of a nursing home (EHPAD) shares his testimony. For nearly three years, Jean Arcelin managed an EHPAD in the south of France before resigning, exhausted by an overflow of emotions and revolted by the lack of resources at his disposal. He encountered both the worst and the beautiful: the existence of isolated elderly people, often without visitors, who cling to life, comfort each other, and reconstruct fragments of happiness. He recounts their daily lives with tenderness. At the end of the book, he provides advice on how to choose a nursing home and concrete solutions to meet one of the greatest challenges of our aging societies.
