What Fondation Ildys does

Fondation Ildys is a French non-profit foundation recognized as being of public utility, headquartered in Roscoff, Finistère, and operating a vertically integrated continuum of healthcare, medico-social, disability, and child protection services across the department of Finistère in Brittany. The Foundation runs two main hospital campuses (Perharidy in Roscoff and Ty Yann in Brest) providing Soins Médicaux et de Réadaptation (SMR) across locomotor, cardiovascular, neurological, addictology, and pediatric specializations, supplemented by radiology, dialysis, and external consultations. Beyond acute care, it operates six EHPAD nursing homes, three children's social homes, a sibling village (Village Fratries KER LIAMM), health centers with general medicine and specialized consultations, mobile dental and medical units (Breizh Bucco Bus, MédicoBus du Finistère), and an in-house professional training center (EP'SAT).

The Foundation serves approximately 7,500 people per year through 1,400+ employees spanning 120+ professions, with programs organized around four primary segments: children and families (including the nationally validated HABIT-ILE and TEAM&CO intensive motor therapy for cerebral palsy), people with disabilities (SAMSAH-SAVS, SESSAD, HANDIACCESS29), elderly individuals in residential and respite care, and adults requiring medical rehabilitation. Specialized offerings include REHAB-LAB (3D printing of custom rehabilitation aids), TAPASS (an aging-well program inspired by the US Lifestyle Redesign model), and the Plateforme de Répit Main.Forte caregiver respite platform.

Revenue is generated through a hybrid public-funding model: French Sécurité Sociale reimbursements for medical acts, monthly EHPAD accommodation fees partially covered by APA long-term care allowances, operating grants and capital authorizations from ARS Bretagne, Conseil Départemental du Finistère, and Région Bretagne, charitable donations under its public utility status, and training fees from EP'SAT. The Foundation is a member of FEHAP, certified 'Haute Qualité des Soins' by the Haute Autorité de Santé, and operates under a multi-stakeholder governance model with public authority representation.
