Les chutes sont un mécanisme fréquent, principalement chez le sujet âgé ou la personne ayant des troubles de l'équilibre. Bien qu'entraînant rarement un dommage corporel, les chutes peuvent fragiliser la psyché et constituent bien souvent un stress, une perte de confiance en soi, voire une appréhension à se tenir debout et à marcher, ce qui entraîne inéluctablement une diminution des activités. Au sein du Centre de médecine physique et de réadaptation de Bobigny, un programme de rééducation « apprentissage au relevé du sol » a été instauré. Ce groupe est encadré par un kinésithérapeute et une ergothérapeute et a pour but, outre la mise en pratique du relevé du sol et des déplacements, de diminuer l'angoisse liée à la chute, de verbaliser les craintes des patients, et de connaître les consignes à respecter afin de se sécuriser en cas de chute.
Falls are frequent, particularly in the elderly or for those with balance problems. Even though patients often don't get hurt, falls can have a strong psychological impact and often generate stress, loss of self-confidence, even an apprehension for standing and walking which inevitably leads to a decrease in activity. At the rehabilitation centre in Bobigny a program to teach people how to get up from the floor was developed. The group is run by a physiotherapist and occupational therapist. It aims to practice getting up from the floor but also to reduce anxiety related to falling, to off er a chance for patients to talk about their fears and to understand how to protect themselves in the case of a fall.
