  abstract = {{T}his article is based on the observation that the affected populations perceive existing community-based adaptation strategies to the health effects of floods differently. {W}e explore the resilience of the local health system to climate change ({CC}) in {K}eur {M}assar ({S}enegal) using a monographic approach based on a qualitative survey of flooded households, health professionals, hygiene agents, community health actors, administrative and local authorities, agents from the {M}inistries of {H}ealth and {E}nvironment, and experts from the ecological and meteorological monitoring centre (n = 72). {T}he effects of {CC} on health are modulated by financial, organisational, social and cultural factors. {T}he effects of {CC} on health are modulated by traditionally praised by self-centred health governance, which is often based on standardisation of problems and thus not sufficiently attuned to local contexts, especially the climate vulnerability index ({CVI}) of households and health structures. {D}espite the existence of programs to combat the consequences of {CC}, the notorious lack of exhaustive mapping of areas with a high {CVI} hinders the effective management of the health of the affected populations. {A} typology of forms of mobility in the context of flooding-ground floor to the upper floor, borrowing a room, renting a flat, seasonal residence-reveals inequalities in access to care as well as specific health needs management of vector-borne diseases, discontinuity of maternal, newborn and child health care, and psychosocial assistance. {T}he article outlines how a health territorialisation based on surveillance and response mechanisms can be co-constructed and made sustainable in areas with a high {CVI}. {I}ntegrating this approach into national health policies allows for equity in health systems efficiently and sustainably. {U}sing a retrospective qualitative study, we describe the resilience of health system to climate-induced floods ({CC}) in the {K}eur {M}assar health district ({S}enegal). {T}he weak coordination of local public actions underpins the standardisation of interventions geared towards preserving livelihoods to the detriment of endogenous capacities. {T}he adaptation of the supply of care materialises through the extension of consultation hours, the setting up of local medical stands, the strengthening of the role of community health workers, and the facilitation of access to letters of guarantee for mutualist households. {T}he populations are rehabilitating intra- and inter-households to preserve their health, especially that of vulnerable people (children, elderly, and disabled). {T}he resilience of the local health system is disjointed, spontaneous, and rational, requiring territorial health policies in areas with high climate vulnerability indexes.},
