URPS Infirmiers Libéraux de Nouvelle-Aquitaine

What URPS Infirmiers Libéraux de Nouvelle-Aquitaine does

URPS Infirmiers Libéraux de Nouvelle-Aquitaine is a French regional professional union (Union Régionale des Professionnels de Santé) that represents and supports approximately 12,000 self-employed nurses (infirmiers libéraux / IDEL) across the 12 departments of Nouvelle-Aquitaine. The organization is governed by 24 elected representatives and operates with a small paid staff of 8 employees, headquartered at Eysines with a legal address in Mérignac. Its mission combines professional representation, continuing-education support, and field initiatives addressing professional isolation, healthcare-desert inequality, palliative care, and gender-based violence. The organization does not pursue commercial revenue: services are free to members and funding flows from statutory professional contributions and regional public-health grants.

The service portfolio centers on a digital toolbox (Boîte à Outils) anchored by Le Kiosque, a free professional book-lending platform operating at kiosque.urpsinfirmiers-na.fr and covering topics such as oncology, palliative care, psychology, pain management, and e-health. Complementary programs include annual Journées Départementales d'Information traveling across departments, Zonage Infirmiers mapping tools for commune-level healthcare-access planning, the Angela violence-prevention initiative, Référent Handicap Patients, vaccination awareness, and cinéma-débat evenings on Alzheimer's and palliative care. The technology stack is a WordPress-based website with JavaScript, PHP, and HTML, integrated with Google Analytics; no API or proprietary software product is offered.

Strategic positioning is increasingly collaborative rather than purely regional: in March 2025 the URPS signed the first inter-URPS partnership convention with unions in Normandie, Hauts-de-France, Corse, and Pays de la Loire, forming a Collectif covering 37,000 nurses. Delivery partnerships extend to ARS Nouvelle-Aquitaine, DRDFE, Planning Familial, France Alzheimer, IMNc Bordeaux, GIP e-santé, and FranceAssosSante, while distribution occurs via the website, social channels (Facebook, LinkedIn, YouTube), email newsletters segmented by department, in-person events, and webinars.
