Soins et Santé

What Soins et Santé does

Soins et Santé is a French non-profit association (loi 1901) founded in 1973 and headquartered in Rillieux-la-Pape, providing home hospitalization (Hospitalisation à Domicile, HAD) and adjacent home-care services across the Lyon metropolitan area, the Rhône department, Nord Isère, and neighboring municipalities of Ain. Its core operation delivers hospital-level medical care to patients at home — including complex wound care, IV therapy, transfusion, palliative care, chemotherapy, rehabilitation, and pediatric and maternal care — coordinated 24/7 by multidisciplinary teams of physicians, nurses, psychologists, and therapists working with liberal healthcare professionals and hospital discharge planners. The organization holds all four French HAD authorizations (Socle, Réadaptation, Enfants de moins de 3 ans, Ante et Post-Partum) granted by the ARS Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes.

The group operates through a multi-subsidiary structure: PAPAVL Aide et Soins (unified Service Autonomie à Domicile for elderly and disabled individuals), Sim Santé (home medical equipment), Soins et Santé Mobilité (medicalized ambulance and VSL transport), Résidence Les Gentianes (senior autonomy residence), Seline/Soins e-Santé (sensor-based autonomy-loss detection), and Soins et Santé Formation (Qualiopi-certified training center). Specialized divisions include the Pôle Soins Palliatifs combining EMSS mobile support and a dedicated SP HAD branch, the Pôle Femme Mère Enfant, and the ERI-SP rapid palliative intervention team (4-hour response, 24/7). Digital infrastructure centers on the O-Liad mobile application for healthcare-professional access to prescriptions and patient files, and the Dendreo platform for training management.

Revenue is generated primarily through French Sécurité Sociale reimbursements for HAD and SAD services, with additional streams from APA dependency-care allowances, OPCO-funded professional training, prescription-based medical transport tariffs, and equipment distribution. Customer acquisition is sales-led and referral-driven — patients enter the system via treating physicians, hospital discharge planners, SOS doctors, SAMU emergency services, and partnerships with EHPADs (25 partner facilities covering 1,996 residents). The organization is governed by President Jean-Paul Varichon and Director General Stéphanie Garreta, who leads the group across its subsidiaries.
