This service also offers outpatient emergency medicine services to the population. As part of the HUG's missions of general interest, it offers access to care for populations disadvantaged by their age, social, economic, or legal status (asylum seekers, those struck by non-entry in matter, undocumented persons, prisoners), or their lifestyle; if necessary, the service de médecine de premier recours also ensures the continuity of their care.

Following a biopsychosocial approach, the multidisciplinary team places the patient at the center of their care pathway. Patient therapeutic education (TEP) is a model of education and support for people living with a chronic illness, based on partnership with the patient and their relatives, and aims to strengthen their health skills, motivation, and quality of life. The SMPR is not recognized by the ISFM for postgraduate training in psychotherapy.
