CONT

Il semble que le virage ambulatoire modifie le mandat des CLSC [Centre local des services communautaires] et les a amenés à offrir des soins en phase postaiguë, plus spécialisés. La prestation de services d'intraveinothérapie à domicile est l'archétype d'un tel changement : le but explicite est de réduire la durée du séjour à l'hôpital et de confier l'administration et la surveillance du traitement au personnel des CLSC.
