Sjaloom Zorg

What Sjaloom Zorg does

Sjaloom Zorg (Stichting Sjaloom Zorg) is a Netherlands-based, non-profit foundation headquartered in Dirksland, providing residential care, day care, supported employment, and home-based guidance services to approximately 600 people with intellectual, psychiatric, physical disabilities, non-congenital brain injury, and severe multiple disabilities across the Goeree-Overflakkee and Zeeland regions. The organization operates 22+ locations spanning Dirksland, Sommelsdijk, Sint-Annaland, Tholen, Ouddorp, Melissant, Middelharnis, and Zierikzee, with sub-brands FlakkeeWerkt! and TholenWerkt! operating work programs. Major facilities include Bestenwaerd (2021, joint project with CuraMare, 52 residents) and De Kaoie (2020, 46 apartments).

Revenue is derived from Dutch statutory healthcare funding (Wlz long-term care and Wmo social support), personal contributions administered via CAK, and Personal Budget (PGB) allocations, with all services governed by regulated pricing frameworks rather than discretionary consumer pricing. Go-to-market relies on referrals from municipalities (Wmo) and care offices (Wlz), supplemented by direct contact forms and word-of-mouth through community networks. The organization supplements approximately 400 paid staff with ~200 active volunteers and has been recognized as Beste Werkgever and World-class Workplace by Effectory.

Technology infrastructure includes the Tirza internal digital workplace for employees, the SDB Octopus Cliëntapp for client communication and care coordination, and voice-controlled reporting (Spraakgestuurd rapporteren) for speech-driven documentation. Governance is provided by a Raad van Toezicht (Supervisory Board) chaired by Tertius Abbo, with executive director Keimpe Bak overseeing operations. The organization's care philosophy is grounded in a stated Protestant-Christian life vision emphasizing passion, credibility, and warmth.
