Korian Deutschland is the German arm of a European provider of medical and social care services, tracing its origins to Besançon in France. Founded in 2003, the company operates within the wider Clariane group and employs around 22,000 people. In Germany it runs 219 inpatient facilities and 23 outpatient services, covering the country's residential and home-care markets.
Its portfolio spans inpatient nursing homes, assisted living (Betreutes Wohnen), alternative housing concepts, day care, dementia care, care for young people (Young Care), the treatment of patients with multiple conditions, and short-term and respite care. Outpatient nursing and service provision form a further pillar, with an stated emphasis on food quality within the facilities. The guiding principle is described as holistic accompaniment of people in need of care rather than the mere administration of care processes.
For technologists and specialists, the relevant signals are the company's stated innovation agenda: projects in the field of care innovation, a programme dubbed "Pflege 2030", and the ongoing development of services around the needs of care recipients. Korian Deutschland describes itself as modern and participatory in orientation, with a parity supervisory board and a European employee participation plan called "Together".
