Clariane in France

France, the birthplace of the Group in 2003, is Clariane’s historic operating region. In France, the Clariane Group offers solutions tailored to different levels of fragility.
Clariane offers solutions tailored to different levels of frailty across the entire care pathway: medical, post-acute and rehabilitation care clinics, psychiatric care and mental health clinics, support and care at home, shared housing and care communities, assisted living facilities and care homes. The Clariane community in France is made up of more than 25,000 professionals who work every day in 558 facilities and at home, alongside care-seekers and their families.

Long-Term Care

The care home business in France operates under the Korian brand. The network includes 269 facilities, 20% of which are located in major urban centres. Medical care is now an important aspect of the activity of homes for the elderly, where many residents suffer from a neurodegenerative disorder such as Alzheimer’s disease, as residents are increasingly elderly when they enter facilities. Korian nursing homes offer several types of accommodation: long-term care, short-term care and, in some cases, day care. Korian care homes are built on a promise: “Working together to build a support system that integrates quality of care and human ties”. This promise is based on four pillars: consideration, care, living space and openness.
Specialty Care
- Medical, post-acute and rehabilitation care
- Mental health
- Prevention and diagnosis out-patient programs

Clariane’s medical activities, operated under the specialist Inicea brand, cover medical, post-acute and rehabilitation care and mental health. Each clinic offers both inpatient and day hospital services, as well as outpatient consultations. Inicea’s mental healthcare clinics specialise in treating mood disorders (bipolar conditions and depression, addictions and eating disorders). The network also includes two long-term care units and two medicalised assisted living facilities.
Community Care
- Domiciliary care
- Shared housing (assisted living facilities and shared living houses)

Clariane’s home help services are provided by Petits-fils, France’s leading private home help network for the elderly. The Group’s 292 home care agencies provide local assistance for everyday needs, enabling elderly people to continue living at home while receiving the support and assistance they need.

The 183 Âges & Vie shared living houses are single-storey homes comprising eight studio apartments and a communal living space, where care assistants work on a rotating basis. These human-scale shared solutions meet a need that has been poorly covered in rural areas until now. Shared housing enables autonomous elderly people to maintain ties with their loved ones and to remain in a familiar environment. They also help to combat loneliness.
