A life project defines the conditions of personalised treatment and support. The main objective is to consider the human being from an ethical perspective, to respect an individual's dignity and rights despite the dependency, as well as to provide a decent quality of life for the user. It mobilises all the caregivers, refocusing their actions on the resident, in accordance with his or her wishes and those of the family.
