Stress, Personality, Attachment and Coping During the Covid Crisis.

Because of containment due to Covid-19, the French High Authority for Health (HAS) recommended reinforced monitoring of patients taken in care in the psychiatric ward, with special attention for people over the age of 65. To meet this recommendation, the geriatrics department of the hospital of Charity of Saint-Etienne hospital and the Vinatier hospital in Lyon organized follow-up of these patients by telephone throughout the containment period, thus allowing continuity of care. This pandemic situation and these measures are unprecedented; it is difficult to anticipate the psychological impact on patients.
