她的工作包括协助老人完成所有日常需求，从起床、洗漱、穿衣、进餐到就寝。法国公共部门员工因薪资冻结举行罢工，抗议2027年预算黛安解释说，当同事缺席时，不会安排替补，因此她的工作量成倍增加。“我可能发现自己要同时协助四位，甚至五位老人进餐。”“在我们的机构里，没有给我们提供更好照护老人的必要工具，”她说，并指出她缺乏时间去妥善倾听、刺激和陪伴病人。
Her job involves helping residents with all their daily needs from getting up, washing, dressing, meals, and going to bed. French public sector workers strike over pay freeze ahead of 2027 budget Diane explains that when a colleague is absent, they are not replaced, so, her workload is multiplied.

Marie-France, a nurse in a nursing home near Paris, is responsible for 36 patients all by herself. "35 years ago, there was more staff. Before, we had the time to spend with our patients, to talk with them," she says, adding "I'm becoming inhuman in some way. In fact, I'm robotic and I'm doing robotic work."
