EPAS 65

What EPAS 65 does

EPAS 65 (Établissement Public d'Accompagnement et de Soins des Hautes-Pyrénées) is a French public establishment under the Fonction Publique Hospitalière, headquartered at 16 Rue de la Castelle, 65700 Castelnau-Rivière-Basse. The institution delivers social and medico-social services to elderly and disabled persons in the Hautes-Pyrénées department (department 65), organized across three operational poles: Hébergement (residential care including Foyer d'Hébergement, Foyer de Vie, and the EHPAD LOU PAÏS nursing home), Domicile (home-based support through SAVS, SAMSAH, and the Service des Majeurs Protégés for judicial guardianship), and Travail (vocational integration through five ESAT sites and one Entreprise Adaptée). The Pole Travail operates with a total capacity of 238 ESAT places plus the Entreprise Adaptée in Juillan employing 22 workers (17 of whom are recognized disabled workers), spanning activities such as industrial subcontracting, electronics assembly, electromechanics, foam production, mechanical assembly, carpentry, sewing, catering, laundry, green-space maintenance, and a multi-service grocery and hotel-restaurant.

The Service des Majeurs Protégés has been operational since March 1986 and currently manages 90 judicial protection measures (tutelle, curatelle, sauvegarde de justice). No proprietary technology is disclosed; the organization's offering is labor-intensive human service delivery rather than technology products. Revenue is generated through two primary streams: (1) regulated healthcare and social-services funding from the French government, social security reimbursements, and departmental council allocations covering the residential, home-based, and guardianship services, and (2) vocational-services revenue from ESAT and Entreprise Adaptée subcontracting contracts with businesses plus apprenticeship-tax contributions. Pricing is regulated rather than commercially negotiated, consistent with the institution's public-establishment status.

EPAS 65 operates under oversight of the ARS (Agence Régionale de Santé) and departmental authorities, with no parent company or private shareholders. In early 2025 the institution co-founded the Réseau PJM 65, a cooperation network uniting the French State, associative tutelary bodies, the local association of liberal mandataires, and the national federation to coordinate adult-protection services across the department. Distribution is direct and territorial: services are accessed through social-services referrals, judicial appointments, or direct inquiry across the Hautes-Pyrénées department. Recruitment is conducted primarily through France Travail and the Choisir le Service Public platform, with supporting presence on Facebook and LinkedIn.
