Brief Summary

Nowadays in France, the standards of hospital rooms are being questioned in view of the particularities of certain populations admitted to hospitals. The " Groupement de Coopération Sanitaire des Hôpitaux Universitaires du Grand Ouest " (GCS HUGO) proposes to improve the quality of geriatric care through the modernisation of hospital rooms. The GCS HUGO has launched a project to co-design a hospital room adapted to the elderly, called "Hospi'Senior", with the help of the "Dependency and Old Age" steering committee. This committee is made up of experts from HUGO and partner companies. The Hospi'Senior room is composed of innovative technologies concerning bed equipment (e.g. bed canopy), autonomous (e.g. lifeline) and assisted mobility (e.g. rail lift system), lighting (e.g. light guide), communication (touch tablet) and social space (furniture). The project consists in evaluating the user experience (UX) of :

• patients hospitalized in the Hospi'Senior room,
• informal caregivers of patients hospitalized in the Hospi'Senior room,
• caregivers who have worked in the Hospi'Senior room.

• User experience of patients (meCUE)

  User experience of the Hospi'Senior room is assessed by meCUE (Modular Evaluation of key Components of User Experience) scale module 2 (8 items)

  at the end of hospitalization, an average of 9 days

Secondary Outcomes (9)

• User experience of informal caregivers (Attrakdiff)

  at the end of hospitalization, an average of 9 days

• User experience of informal caregivers (meCUE)

  at the end of hospitalization, an average of 9 days

• User experience of caregivers (AttrakDiff)

  after 3 months of using the Hospi'Senior room

• User experience of caregivers (meCUE)

  after 3 months of using the Hospi'Senior room

• User experience of patients and informal caregivers of each equipment

  at the end of hospitalization, an average of 9 days

• Age ≥ 18 years old
• Able to visit the patient admitted to Hospi'Senior room
• Caregiver :
• Age ≥ 18 years old
• Be a healthcare professional involved in the short-term geriatric unit, from one of 4 categories:
• physicians,
• permanent paramedical caregivers (nurse, nurse's aide, health executive),
• support paramedical staff (psychologist, neuropsychologist, physiotherapist, adapted physical activity teacher),
• technical staff (stretcher bearer).

You may not qualify if:

• Patient :
• Contraindication to participation in the study at the discretion of the medical team
• Refusal to participate
• Poor understanding of the French language
• Persons deprived of liberty by an administrative or judicial decision, persons under forced psychiatric care, adults under legal protection or unable to express their consent
