Sophie Boissard, CEO of Korian Group:
"Following two years fighting the Covid-19 pandemic and whilst the nursing home model comes under scrutiny in France, the Korian community has remained more than ever committed to providing high quality care and support to the elderly and fragile in our society, through its three activities, long term elderly care, post-acute healthcare and community care.
I would like to pay tribute to the unwavering commitment and professionalism of the Korian teams across Europe, that has enabled us to progress significantly in our environmental and social objectives, particularly focused on employment and qualifying training.
I would like to thank all our stakeholders, and in particular our residents, patients, clients and their families for their trust and the quality of our dialogue in all of the communities where we are present. We are determined to build with our stakeholders the solutions and the infrastructure to accompany and care for the elderly and vulnerable with dignity. Thus contributing to solving the societal challenges posed by ageing and chronic diseases across Europe. It's with this aim in mind that we are starting our transformation to become a European, Mission-led company."
