Ten years ago, Sabrina, then aged 25, was interned at the Paul-Guiraud hospital in Villejuif (Val-de-Marne) at the request of her father. Brilliant student in marketing and high level athlete, she was in pain then anorexia but refused to be treated.
She spent a year there. Ten years later, his left wrist still bears the marks of contention, we learn in Le Parisien.
One year in isolation
Interned without his consent, she is not very cooperative. She will therefore be placed in isolation, fed with a gastric tube and sometimes tied to her bed for several days.
Recently, the High Authority for Health (HAS) looked into the conditions of hospitalization of 400,000 people placed each year in establishments and psychiatric services. The High Authority then published new recommendations for healthcare professionals so that they have less recourse to isolation and restraint measures.
For her part, the young woman, now cured, decided to file an appeal against the psychiatric hospital of Villejuif. She denounces “inhuman and degrading treatment” and takes the case to the administrative court of Melun.
