Riom Hospital Center

What Riom Hospital Center does

Centre Hospitalier Guy Thomas de Riom is a French public hospital (établissement public de santé) located in Riom, Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes, with origins tracing to a 17th-century fusion of a refuge and hospital. Renamed in 1982 in honor of Nicolas Guy Thomas (former mayor and physician of Riom), the establishment operates under French public healthcare law with supervision from ARS Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes. The facility operates 185 hospital beds plus 149 EHPAD (nursing home) beds across three sites (Pasteur 2, Pasteur 3, Les Jardins), supported by more than 600 professionals including 100+ physicians across emergency, cardiology, geriatrics, surgery, oncology, and other specialties.

Core services span 24/7 emergency care (SAU/SMUR/UHCD), general and specialized medicine (Médecine Polyvalente, Médecine à Orientation Cardiologique with 34 beds), geriatric short-stay units (78 beds across CSG A/B/C), a day hospital for oncology and transfusions (operating since May 2012), and surgery (orthopedic, digestive, ophthalmology, dentistry) with an ambulatory unit performing approximately 60% of interventions on an outpatient basis. Technical platforms include a surgery block, medical imaging (radiography, scanner, mammography, ultrasound, bone densitometry, dental panoramic), a sample collection center, and an internal pharmacy (PUI). Specialized care units address addiction (ELSA), sexual health (Centre de Santé Sexuelle), disability care (HANDICONSULT' in partnership with CHU Clermont-Ferrand Estaing and ARA Ouest), precarious population access (PASS), and geriatric memory disorders (CEGERM/COGERT linked to CM2R Auvergne). The hospital holds HAS certification with mention for 'Haute Qualité des soins' (highest level).

Revenue is generated through regulated French national health insurance (Sécurité sociale) tariffs under the T2A (tarification à l'activité) system for acute services, complementary mutuelle reimbursements, patient co-payments, and EHPAD dependency/accommodation fees partially covered by departmental allocations. The hospital is part of the GHT du Grand Clermont territorial grouping, sharing common direction with CHU Clermont-Ferrand (supporting establishment), Centre Hospitalier Clémentel, and Hôpital Nord. Distribution occurs through territorial referrals from general practitioners, the GHT network, scheduled external consultations, emergency admissions, and inter-hospital transfers. A new 130-bed EHPAD is planned for delivery in 2028, and a modernized institutional website launched Spring 2026 as part of ongoing modernization.
