[Social precariousness and fragility, literature review]

Abstract

Today, one of the main areas of prevention of elderly dependency is the care of the most vulnerable people. This one and their identification are part of local prevention. To be effective, this system must go to the very heart of living and meeting places, beyond the traditional reference of vulnerability management in day hospitals or in consultations.

Keywords: aging; dependence; dépendance; fragility; fragilité; precarity; prevention; précarité; prévention; vieillissement.
