What Amavir does

Amavir is a privately held Spanish elderly care provider founded in 1996 and headquartered in Madrid, operating 92 care centers across eight autonomous communities (Madrid, Cataluña, Castilla-La Mancha, Navarra, Canarias, Castilla y León, Murcia, and Andalucía) with a workforce of 5,192 professionals. The company is a member of Groupe Maisons de Famille, a European elderly care operator with presence in France, Italy, Germany, and Spain. Its core offerings are permanent residential stays (residencias de mayores), day care (centros de día), temporary/respite placements, and specialized rehabilitation units, collectively representing approximately 10,000 residential places. Amavir also offers financial advisory services (reverse mortgage, nuda propiedad, life annuity), a digital Portal Familiar for relatives, and intergenerational community programming.

The company's revenue model is predominantly recurring and subscription-based, derived from monthly residency and day care fees, per-diem temporary stay charges, and contracted 'plazas concertadas' — publicly subsidized placements funded by regional governments under Spain's Dependency Law. Go-to-market is direct-to-consumer via physical centers, the amavir.es website (with center locator, comparator tool, and free advisory callback service), and government referral channels. New capacity is delivered in partnership with Healthcare Activos, a specialized real estate developer; the most recent example is a 120-bed BREEAM-certified, EPC 'A' nursing home in Granada opened in 2026.

Operationally, Amavir is a care-services provider rather than a technology company. Its infrastructure centers on facility management systems, multidisciplinary clinical staffing, and sustainability measures (ISO 14001, 14% per-user carbon footprint reduction in 2025, BREEAM-certified new builds, 70% electrification, and on-site renewable energy generation). Brand positioning rests on its 'Guiados por ti' care model, 30+ years of market presence, and 40,000+ families served cumulatively. Pricing is not publicly disclosed and varies by center, room type, and dependency level.

Revenue model

1. Permanent residency fees: Long-term or indefinite residential stays in nursing homes, billed on a recurring basis. Fees cover accommodation, meals, medical care, and daily living assistance. Revenue is recurring as residents remain for extended periods, often years.
2. Day care (Centro de Día) fees: Day-time attendance at centers providing therapies, activities, meals, and transport for elderly who continue living at home. Billed on a recurring basis for regular attendance.
3. Temporary / respite stays: Short-term residential placements for family respite or post-hospitalization rehabilitation. Billed for the duration of stay, typically at standard per-diem rates.
4. Government-funded (concerted) placements: A portion of beds at each center are 'plazas concertadas' — publicly funded placements subsidized by regional autonomous communities under Spain's Dependency Law. These generate contracted recurring revenue per placed resident.
