CASO | Health and Orientation Reception Center (Médecins du Monde)

The Health and Orientation Reception Center (CASO), founded by Médecins du Monde in Yverdon-les-Bains, is a frontline service dedicated to welcoming and guiding individuals in precarious situations towards the health and social care network. This center aims to remove socioeconomic barriers limiting access to healthcare by offering a space where everyone, regardless of status, can receive free, tailored care.

CASO serves a broad audience, from working professionals to retirees and students, as well as more vulnerable groups such as homeless individuals or those with addiction issues. Through a welcoming and listening approach, the center's nursing consultations provide not only medical assistance but also essential moral support, encouraging patients to openly discuss their health concerns.
