ORIAPA

What ORIAPA does

ORIAPA (Organisation Réunionnaise d'Information et d'Accompagnement des Personnes Agées) is a French non-profit association (Association loi 1901, SIRET 32444658200045) founded in 1976 and headquartered at 35 rue du Bois de Nèfles, Saint-Denis, La Réunion. It operates as the island's oldest and most comprehensive elderly care platform, serving seniors and their families across North and East La Réunion. Its service portfolio spans residential care (EHPAD Résidence Astéria in Saint-Denis with 73 beds including a 12-bed protected Alzheimer's unit), four Accueils de Jour (day care centers in Saint-Denis, Saint-André, Bras-Panon, Saint-Benoît totaling 26 places), two home care modalities (Service Mandataire, €39/month employer-support fee, and Service Prestataire via subsidiary ORIAPA Services), a Centre de Ressources Territorial (CRT) providing 365-day coordinated home support in North La Réunion, a Plateforme de Répit for caregivers of persons with neurodegenerative diseases, the Dispositif de Relayage à domicile (in-home respite), and the island-wide Impulsion Gérontologique prevention/rights-access service benefiting 900+ people annually. The organization is governed by a Board under President Olga VAULBERT and Director Claire CODET.

The operating model is predominantly institutional and public-reimbursement-driven. Authorization from the Conseil Départemental de La Réunion and ARS La Réunion, agrément SAP324446582 (May 2015), HAS quality evaluations, and adherence to the Charte Nationale Qualité des services à la personne underpin regulatory standing. Most core services — CRT, Impulsion Gérontologique, Plateforme de Répit, EHPAD — are fully funded by public bodies (APA, PCH, Aide sociale à l'hébergement, ARS and Conseil Départemental grants) or free at the point of use; the Mandataire €39/month fee and modest membership dues (€1-31/year) provide minor supplemental revenue. Go-to-market is sales-led via institutional referrals (CCAS, mairies, CHU, CGSS, ALMA Réunion), direct admission requests, and community engagement through 45+ affiliated third-age clubs and the Force 3 magazine (published since 1986). A future 107-place EHPAD in Bras-Panon broke ground June 9, 2026 and is targeted to open by end of 2027, co-developed with Énéal (Action Logement), SHLMR, and Banque des Territoires.

Product overview

ORIAPA operates as a unified platform of interconnected elder care services on La Réunion, combining residential care (EHPAD Résidence Astéria with 73 beds), day care (Accueils de Jour across 4 locations with 26 places), and comprehensive home support services. The portfolio includes the Plateforme de Répit for caregiver support, the Centre de Ressources Territorial for aging-at-home coordination, and the Service Impulsion Gérontologique for prevention and social activities.

• Colisée: French EHPAD and home care operator offering residential facilities and personal care services. Comparable on EHPAD operations and the prestataire/mandataire split for home care services.
• Korian: One of the largest European operators of nursing homes (EHPAD), clinics, and home care services. Comparable as a multi-site residential and home care operator, though at vastly greater scale and pan-European rather than island-focused.
• DomusVi: French EHPAD and senior services operator with residential, home care and assisted living offerings. Comparable integrated service model serving dependent elderly populations, though with a metropolitan rather than overseas footprint.
• Orpéa (Clariane): Major French-led operator of EHPAD, clinics and home care services across Europe. Direct overlap in EHPAD operations and dependency care services, with a comparable full continuum from independent living to skilled nursing.

Regional players
