Direct peers

• Clece (Servicios Sociales): Large Spanish provider of social and healthcare services including home care, day centers and elder care, part of the ACS group. Comparable service portfolio to Humanizar's care operations and professional training programs, but at national scale.
• NewHealth Foundation: Spanish foundation focused on advanced chronic and palliative care with psychosocial support teams and training programs. Highly comparable mission and service mix to Humanizar's palliative care and EAPS offerings.
• Asociación de Counselling Humanista de España (ACHE): Spanish professional association for humanistic counselling, presided by José Carlos Bermejo himself. Direct peer to Humanizar's counselling training, Modelo Humanizar and postgraduate programs in the same discipline.
• DomusVi: Largest private operator of elderly residences, day centers and home care services in Spain. Directly comparable to Humanizar's Residencia de mayores, Centro de día and Servicios de ayuda a domicilio, though at much greater scale and for-profit.
• Cudeca Foundation: Andalusian hospice foundation providing palliative care, psychosocial support and bereavement programs. Closely comparable to Humanizar's palliative care unit and grief counselling mission, including a hybrid care-plus-training model.
• Albertia Servicios Sociosanitarios: Spanish operator of residential centers, day centers and home care for elderly and disabled persons. Directly comparable to Humanizar's residential and home care service lines, with overlapping training and quality-management programs.

Others

• Fundación Edad&Vida: Spanish foundation focused on aging research, advocacy and quality standards for elder care. Comparable thought-leadership and humanization-of-care positioning, though it does not operate direct care services like Humanizar.
• Cáritas Española: Spanish Catholic social services confederation that operates Cáritas Diocesana de Tenerife — an existing partner of Humanizar. Comparable faith-rooted social-services and accompaniment mission, though much broader in scope (poverty, migration, etc.).

Broad incumbents

• Orden Hospitalaria de San Juan de Dios: Large Catholic religious order operating hospitals, social-sanitary centers and research across Spain and Latin America. Comparable as a faith-based healthcare provider with overlapping elder-care and psychosocial service lines, but at significantly larger scale.

Regional players

• Fundación Pía Aguirreche: Chilean palliative care foundation operating hospice and grief-support services. Comparable mission and model to Humanizar, relevant given Humanizar's active training partnership with Red de Humanización de Chile in the same geography.
