What Thebe does
Thebe is a Dutch regional care organization headquartered in Breda, operating across 19 municipalities in West- and Midden-Brabant. It delivers district nursing, specialist care (including Korsakov, NAH+, dementia, palliative, oncological, and high-intensity somatic care), home counseling, day activities, and personal alarm services, alongside residential living through 25 woonzorgcentra. The organization serves primarily elderly individuals, chronically ill patients, and people with non-congenital brain injury, with care delivery organized around neighborhood teams, community-based 'Huis van de Buurt' meeting places, and short-stay/respite/hospice options. Approximately 5,000 employees operate under the 'De Bedoeling' philosophy of self-reliance, with a stated vision of 'zelf, thuis & technologie' (self, home, technology).
Thebe's technology stack centers on a unified digital care dossier called PUUR. (rebranded from Lable Care in October 2025), which consolidates client information across both district and residential care. Adjacent smart-care tools include the Medido medication dispenser, BedSense under-mattress sensors, the SAM Methodiek for self-reliance, and the Samenzorg app for coordination with informal caregivers. In February 2026 Thebe launched its own Syntilio monitoring center as a regional digital care hub that already processes alerts and provides nighttime telephone coverage for external partners such as Surplus. The organization holds NEN7510 information security certification (November 2025) and operates accredited Regional Expertise Centers for Korsakov and NAH+.
Revenue is generated through Dutch statutory funding mechanisms: the Wet Langdurige Zorg (WLZ) for long-term care, the Zorgverzekeringswet (ZVW) for district nursing and insured care, and the Wet Maatschappelijke Ondersteuning (WMO) for municipal social support and day activities. Pricing is not set by Thebe but determined through collective labor agreements (CAO) and regulated tariff systems. Thebe holds ANBI (Algemeen Nut Beogende Instelling) public-benefit status, is governed by a Raad van Bestuur and Raad van Toezicht, and has expanded through acquisitions (Ruitersbos in 2022, Heilaarstaete observation clinic in 2025, Siza NAH Tilburg in January 2026) and a significant real estate development pipeline including Muizenhof (May 2026), Thebe Diaconessenhof, Elisabeth Goirle, Heilaarstraat, and Janshove.
