What Residencias Nostem does

Residencias Nostem operates within the DomusVi group (legal entity GERIAVI, S.A.U., headquartered at Calle Ulises 16-18, Madrid), one of the largest social-healthcare providers in Spain with over 30 years of sector experience. The company delivers a comprehensive portfolio of elderly and dependent-person care services, including residential care homes (302 facilities nationwide), day centers, specialized disability and mental health centers, home care (teleassistance, ayuda a domicilio, atención sanitaria domiciliaria), serviced apartments for autonomous seniors (ADORES sub-brand), and convalescence/rehabilitation and temporary respite stays. Operationally, it runs 20,000+ care places, serves approximately 34,000 residents/day-center users and 127,000+ home-care users annually, and employs around 28,000 people across all Spanish provinces and Andorra.

The underlying technology is an integrated care management system anchored by the proprietary "Humaniza" person-centered care model and "Plan de Apoyos" (Support Plan) co-creation framework, supported by ongoing Comprehensive Geriatric Assessments. The business model is primarily subscription/recurring revenue (monthly billing) on a hybrid of private-pay admissions and publicly-funded ("concertada") placements via public-private partnership contracts with Spanish regional administrations; over 11,000 publicly-funded residential places are managed. Customer segments include dependent elderly individuals, their families, autonomous 55+ seniors, people with disabilities, and government contracting entities. Pricing is quote-based and not publicly disclosed.

The company holds ISO 9001 (quality), ISO 27001 (information security), UNE 158.101/201/301 (sector management), EMAS (environmental), ENS (Spanish National Security Framework), and NIS2 compliance certifications. It operates the Fundación DomusVi foundation for social innovation and the Senior University program (in partnership with IL3-University of Barcelona, 528+ graduates since 2021). Recent strategic activity (May–June 2026) includes new facility openings in Les Franqueses del Vallès (Barcelona, 108 beds) and Lugo (80 beds, €6.5M investment), continued receipt of EU NextGenerationEU digital transformation funding, and presentation of the Humaniza model at the SEGG national geriatrics congress. Residencias Nostem itself appears to be a narrower entity within the DomusVi group (firmographic headcount 251–500), with a 2005 funding round from Talde Private Equity referenced in the input data.

Scale indicators8 records

Recent moves8 records

Expansion highlights6 records

Direct peers

• Amavir: Amavir operates a network of assisted living and nursing homes across Spain serving elderly residents with similar dependency profiles. It is the closest Spanish direct competitor in residential elder care at comparable scale and service mix.
• Ilunion (Grupo Social ONCE): Ilunion operates elderly care services, disability support, and home help in Spain with strong public-administration relationships. Its social-economy positioning and service breadth overlap directly with DomusVi's elderly and disability segments.
• Sanitas Mayores (Bupa): Sanitas Mayores is the Spanish elderly care arm of Bupa, operating residential centers and day centers with comparable service breadth. As an international healthcare group, it brings broader healthcare synergies but is a direct Spanish-market competitor.
• Ballesol: Ballesol runs a multi-site network of elderly residential centers in Spain with a comparable mix of assisted living, day services, and rehabilitation. It competes head-to-head with DomusVi for the same private-pay and concertada resident segments.
• Clece (ACS Group): Clece is a major Spanish social-services and care operator within the ACS Group, providing residential care, home help, and social services. It directly competes with DomusVi for public-private partnership contracts and elderly care placements in Spain.
• Albertia Servicios Sociosanitarios: Albertia is a Spanish operator of residential centers and day centers for the elderly with growing national presence. It competes directly for the same concertada and private-pay elderly residents in overlapping Spanish regions.

Broad incumbents

• Grupo Eulen: Eulen operates social-health and home care services in Spain as part of a broader facility services portfolio. It competes in home care and elderly services as a diversified incumbent rather than a focused senior care specialist.
• Colisée: Colisée is a French-headquartered senior care operator with Spanish facilities, offering assisted living, nursing care, and home services. As a multi-country operator, it is a broader incumbent competitor in the Spanish market.
• Orpea / Emeis: Orpea (rebranding to Emeis) is one of Europe's largest elder care operators with significant presence in Spain. It is a broader global incumbent offering assisted living, nursing, and home care across multiple countries, overlapping DomusVi's Spanish footprint.

Others

• Aedifica: Aedifica is a Belgian healthcare REIT that has acquired multiple Spanish senior care operators (including Amavir). It is a thematic adjacent participant — capital provider and infrastructure owner for the same care home asset class rather than an operating competitor.
