Content of the study:MARKET OVERVIEW
1.1 Definition of the market and the scope of the study
The term retirement home covers several types of medical and social establishments offering various housing solutions for the elderly. A retirement home can be public or private, medicalized or not, specialized or not, etc.
Medicalized retirement homes are divided into 2 main categories:
-
The EHPAD (Establishments for the Accommodation of Dependent Elderly Persons) which target dependent elderly persons for whom a permanent supervision by a medical team is necessary.
-
The USLD (Unité de Soins de Longue Durée - Long-term care unit) with permanent medical staff and reinforced medical equipment to ensure the total and constant care of seniors.
In Europe, the aging of the population is prompting European countries to invest in the construction of new medical residences for seniors, like Germany, which has invested 10.860 billion euros in this sector.
As EHPADs are by far the majority, this study will focus primarily on this category of medicalized retirement homes. In 2019, France had 7,519 EHPADs, which represented 70% of the total capacity for the elderly. USLDs, on the other hand, represented less than 5.51% of the accommodation capacity.
In 2018, EHPADs can be public (44% of establishments), private commercial (25%) or non-profit (31%). In 2019, 611,673 beds were offered in EHPADs and the average occupancy rate was 97%.
In France, the market for nursing homes is growing rapidly, driven by the aging population and the increase in elderly dependency. This increase is expected to accelerate further due to the arrival at 3ᵉ age of the post-war "baby boom" generation and the continued increase in life expectancy.
However, with supply outstripping demand, the market has been characterized for several years by significant challenges. In particular, the slowdown in the creation of new facilities and the existing barriers to entry, lack of financing and recruitment difficulties are central issues.
For several years now, institutions have also been suffering from an image deficit. The players are therefore focusing on modernizing their structures and seeking to improve the quality of life of residents. In addition, the main players in the sector, such as Korian, Orpéa and DomusVi, are diversifying their offer, in particular by reinforcing their home care offer, by taking over the entire operation of nursing homes and by positioning themselves on alternative accommodation offers to nursing homes.
