Que dit la recherche francophone sur l'ETP à domicile?

TPE at home is a widespread practice that, however, has not yet achieved the same valorization as institutional TPE programs. To review this practice we queried the databases Lissa and Google Sholar since 2009. We found that this type of ETP provides undeniable services to patients with chronic illnesses who would probably not have the means to access hospital TPE programs or to pursue an educational pathway started in the hospital. On the other hand, some care and specialized services are not conceivable outside the patient’s home. This form of education consists more of "ETP actions" than of structured programs; it has the advantage of involving caregivers and focusing on the patient in the context of his or her own life. It requires specific training for caregivers, and should also be able to draw on research, the development of which is currently too limited.
