This worldwide health crisis forced hospitals to adapt their activities to this new confinement environment. Innovation was required to maintain a social bound between cohorting service's patients and their families, to guarantee a dedicated listening time and prevent as much as possible from the isolation due to this COVID-19 unusual situation. With that aim, the army training hospital Legouest created an information and support listening cell dedicated to COVID-19 hospitalized patients' families. It also provided several tablets for creating a patient and family digital gate.
