Association LA COMPASSION

What Association LA COMPASSION does

Association La Compassion is a private non-profit association (loi 1901) founded in June 1990 in Beauvais, Oise, France, that operates a multi-regional network of elderly care and accommodation facilities. The association delivers three core service lines: 9 EHPADs (medicalized nursing homes) for dependent elderly persons (GIR 1-4); 22 Résidences Autonomie offering independent senior housing with services (GIR 5-6), with 19 of these concentrated in the Oise department; and 2 SSIADs plus 1 Centre de Soins Infirmier providing home nursing care in Senlis and Toulouse. A Centre de Ressource Territorial (CRT) launched in Beauvais in September 2024 extends the offering into coordinated home-care as an EHPAD alternative. Combined, the network serves more than 2,000 elderly persons annually (895 in RA, 799 in EHPAD, 105 in SSIAD) across six French regions (Hauts-de-France, Bourgogne-Franche-Comté, Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur, Occitanie, Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes, Nouvelle-Aquitaine) with over 1,000 professionals.

The technology stack supporting operations includes the NetSoins Dossier Usager Informatisé (DUI) deployed across all facilities in SaaS mode via TERANGA SOFTWARE (rolled out September 2024 to January 2025), Apozème software on connected boxes for SSIAD home-care coordination, WIFI-based geolocation and SOS bracelet security systems, mobile telemedicine stations transmitting vital signs to SAMU 60 regulatory physicians, Bladder Scan ultrasound diagnostics, and the ViaTrajectoire admission platform. Pierre Viard serves as President (since June 2024) and Muriel Blouin as Directrice Générale.

Revenue is generated through two principal streams: French Sécurité Sociale and ARS reimbursement for SSIAD and EHPAD services under government-mandated pricing and departmental funding agreements, and monthly accommodation fees from Résidences Autonomie residents (€527-€782/month per disclosed tariff range, with APL/aide sociale eligibility). Go-to-market relies on institutional referrals through departmental councils, ARS authorizations, retirement funds (CNRACL, KLESIA, AG2R LA MONDIALE, HUMANIS, AGRICA), the FEHAP network, and direct outreach via the lacompassion.fr website and facility visits. A long-term partnership with S.A. HLM de l'Oise funds an approximately €21 million rehabilitation program covering 15 résidences in Oise.
