Buurtzorg: the word that could revolutionize healthcare’ (WEF) World economic forum

Buurtzorg is a pioneering healthcare organization established 11 years ago with a nurse-led model of holistic care that revolutionized community care in the Netherlands. Buurtzorg Netherlands grew rapidly from 1 team to 956 and more than 10,000 nurses today. Buurtzorg continues to influence and lead to innovation. Collaboration is key to Buurtzorg’s model of care and its operating model and this has resulted in exciting collaborations around new ways of working and new areas of care, both here in Holland and internationally.

In 2014 Buurtzorg Neighborhood Care Asia was established with the objective to first adapt and then implement the multiply awarded Buurtzorg model of community-based, integrated care for the elderly in selected Asian countries and by this to make the life of the elderly better in those countries. In 2017 we once again made significant progress on our journey towards our goals!
