[ International Insights ] 🌍 France 🇫🇷
Hospital at Home is transforming healthcare systems worldwide. Instead of staying in hospital beds, patients can now receive hospital-level treatment in their own homes. Each country takes a different approach, and through our international study missions, we explore these models first-hand.
Today, we share another insight – this time from France, where HAD is not only medical but also profoundly social. 🔎 What makes France different is the way it integrates social connection and well-being into home hospitalisation. While many systems prioritise technology or efficiency, France reminds us that healthcare at home is also about humanity, dignity, and belonging.
The Santé Service Foundation, Europe’s largest HAD provider, supports nearly 2,000 patients every day in the Paris region. Beyond treatment, their teams bring solidarity and dignity into daily care:
🌸 Delivering flowers to isolated patients (A Flower, A Smile)
🎒 Supporting children from vulnerable families with school supplies (Back to School)
🤡 Sending clowns to brighten the days of young patients (Clowns at Home)
🎭 Offering art therapy to restore comfort and hope during long treatments
👉 Insights like these are why our study missions matter: they reveal how countries reinvent care in unique ways – and how their lessons can inspire others worldwide.
