ASSAD-HAD

What ASSAD-HAD does

Humensia (operating under the legal/entity name ASSAD-HAD) is a French non-profit association (loi 1901) headquartered in Tours and operating across the Centre Val de Loire region. Founded in 1955, it delivers a comprehensive suite of home-based health, care, and support services to more than 9,200 beneficiaries and patients with a workforce of over 1,300 collaborators, spanning departments 37, 28, 45, 18, and 41. Service lines include autonomy assistance, daily-living support, accompanied transport, telecare, gardening and small works, home cleaning, meal delivery (lunch and evening snack), home nursing care (SSIAD and Centre de Soins Infirmiers), hospital-at-home (HAD), specialized Alzheimer's accompaniment, and childcare/parenting support. The organization also offers a 'mode mandataire' option in which the client remains the legal employer of the care worker while Humensia manages administration, recruitment, and contracts.

The service platform is coordinated through a single regional contact number (guichet unique, 02 47 36 29 29) and a network of local antennas, providing one-stop access to the full care continuum. Humensia is certified by the Haute Autorité de Santé (HAS) for HAD services, holds the agréé Services à la la Personne designation (SAP/775 348 501), and adheres to charters issued by the Ministry of Labour. It has been selected as a national pilot operator for the 'Cap à Domicile' program targeting fluid hospital discharges and avoidable rehospitalizations, and is pursuing ESG-oriented modernization through a 100% electric Fiat Topolino fleet and a 2025 Decarbonation Certificate tied to refurbished-smartphone deployment.

The business model is fee-for-service across individuals and households, supplemented by French personal-services tax-credit mechanics, public reimbursement for medical and HAD acts, and modest municipal/ARS funding. Go-to-market is community-led and referral-driven, anchored by the local antenna network, healthcare-professional referrals (Espace Pro HAD), the corporate website, and organic social channels (Facebook, LinkedIn, YouTube). Pricing is not publicly disclosed and is established per client on the basis of individualized care plans.
