Discussion

Tony M Jan 20, 2023:
@ Asker Surely 'ouverture sur le ville' simply means people can go there without needing a GP referral? I.e. not necessarily 'urgences', but people can just walk in...
joanna menda (asker) Jan 20, 2023:
Maybe it is a way of integrating "medecin de ville" (private physicians) into the public hospital?
joanna menda (asker) Jan 20, 2023:
sorry have a new software that didn't like "ouverture" and I don't know how to remove it from here.
What I would like to know is what they mean by "ouverture sur la ville"
Samuël Buysschaert Jan 20, 2023:
HTH/Fwiw I think it means Pôle « Urgences -Ouverture sur la ville »,

Le Groupe Hospitalier du Havre comporte 10 pôles :
Pôle 3 : Médecine Aiguë et ouverture sur la ville (SAMU, SMUR, Urgences Adultes, Médecine Aiguë Post Urgences, SSR Gériatrique, USLD)

Selected

Department of Acute medicine and A&E or Outpatients ..


A bit of educated research and guessing:

Les pôles :
Le Groupe Hospitalier du Havre comporte 9 pôles cliniques et médico-techniques :
Pôle 1 : Imagerie, Laboratoire, Pharmacie
Pôle 2 : Réanimation, Anesthésie, Bloc opératoire
Pôle 3 : Médecine Aiguë et ouverture sur la ville (SAMU, SMUR, Urgences Adultes, Médecine Aiguë Post Urgences, Filière Gériatrique : Court Séjour Gériatrique, USLD, Hôpital de Jour Gériatrique)

acute medicine and A&E

https://assets.publishing.service.gov.uk/government/uploads/...

Ouvert sur la ville, le Centre Hospitalier de Douai promeut la rencontre, l’échange et la proximité en réponse aux fléaux qui touchent nos concitoyens et aux carences que subit son territoire. Ce nouveau rôle de l’hôpital public est salué par l’ensemble des parties prenantes professionnelles et syndicales et est déjà fortement apprécié par les citoyens.

Could 'ouverture sur la ville' be A&E in this context?. Opening/access to the public and all of the divisions hint to emergencies.

The other option I could think of is 'Outpatients' for 'ouverture sur la ville'

It is probably best to go for 'Outpatients'. 'Ambulatoire' would probably be the description in French

Emergency services / Emergency care

This department includes all the emergency services, and "ouverture sur la ville" possibly means they are connected to the public ambulances system which can bring patients to the hospital from anywhere in town.
Also, they changed their department name (see ref) now it's Acute medicine and Post emergency care.

Opening-up to the City's Emergency Calls

This is just a simple suggestion but still, inspired by the following French article.

Reference:

Apparently

it's the name they are using for the Urgent Care Center:

Le praticien rejoindra le Pôle « Urgences -Ouverture sur la ville », au sein d’un établissement support de son GHT.
https://www.ch-havre.fr/wp-content/uploads/2021/11/Fiche-de-...

I will say it's a way to express the "metropolitan area" of Le Havre; I see there's a coordinate initiative to extend the services of GHH (Groupe Hospitalier du Havre):
https://www.hospital-magazine.fr/wp-content/uploads/2012/11/...
"...et le renforcement des interactions du GHH avec son environnement
par la création d’un pôle « ouverture sur la ville »."

"De plus,notre prise en charge doit être plus ouverte sur la
ville au niveau des urgences et des consultations.
Nous ne devons plus nous cantonner à un rôle de recours en raison de la concurrence et de laT2A. Cette ouverture sur la ville passera également par le développement de l’éducation thérapeutique et de la télémédecine."

Sincerely, I wouldn't translate this since is part of a name/initiative.
Note from asker:
Thanks! I wouldn't translate either but it's an agency job and they want everything translated :(
