Increasing life expectancy and the rise in chronic diseases are major public health issues. Air Liquide is continuing to develop its home healthcare activity in France with the acquisition of SEPRODOM, a key player in home healthcare and monitoring of patients with chronic diseases in the French overseas departments and territories.

Created in 2003, SEPRODOM has nearly 90 employees, caring for 4,500 patients at home in Reunion, Mayotte, Guadeloupe, and New Caledonia.

SEPRODOM is recognized for the quality of its care for patients that need respiratory assistance at home, in particular oxygen therapy, mechanical ventilation and the treatment of sleep apnea. SEPRODOM also cares for patients that require treatment by infusion therapy and enteral nutrition at home. And finally, it also supplies and distributes medical equipment directly to patients’ homes.
