Article D6124-439 of the French Public Health Code

The establishment must be managed by either a doctor or a nursery nurse.

If there is no medical director, a doctor must be attached to each establishment. This doctor, who does not have to be resident in the establishment, must be able to respond quickly to any call.

If the doctor does not reside in the establishment, the frequency of his or her visits will be determined in agreement with the doctor in charge of the maternal and child protection service, taking into account the size of the staff.

Original in French 🇫🇷
Article D6124-439

La direction de l’établissement doit être confiée soit à un médecin, soit à une puéricultrice.

Dans le cas où il n’y a pas de médecin directeur, un médecin doit être attaché à chaque établissement. Ce médecin dont la résidence dans l’établissement n’est pas obligatoire doit pouvoir répondre rapidement à tout appel.

S’il ne réside pas dans l’établissement, la fréquence de ses visites est fixée en accord avec le médecin responsable du service de protection maternelle et infantile, compte tenu de l’importance de l’effectif.
