Vughterstede

What Vughterstede does

Stichting Vughterstede is a Dutch non-profit elderly care foundation headquartered in Vught, Netherlands, operating under the umbrella of Stichting Mariënstede. The organization delivers a full continuum of senior care to the municipality of Vught and surrounding areas (Helvoirt, Cromvoirt, and the broader Noordoost-Brabant region), serving elderly residents who require varying levels of support—from independent living with home nursing to specialized dementia and palliative care. Its service portfolio includes two woonzorgcentra (Theresia at Molenrijnselaan 48 and Elisabeth at St. Elisabethstraat 2), district nursing and home care (wijkverzorging/wijkverpleging), day activities at De Lindetuin, meal delivery (Tafeltje-Dekje), personal alarm systems, dementia case management, GeheugenCafé community sessions, and formal caregiver (mantelzorg) support programs. The organization reports a PREM-score wijkverpleging of 8.2 for 2024.

The business operates primarily through Dutch regulated healthcare funding streams: Wet langdurige zorg (Wlz) for residential care, Wet maatschappelijke ondersteuning (Wmo) for home support, and Zorgverzekeringswet (Zvw) for home nursing, supplemented by ancillary service fees for meals, day care, and caregiver training (e.g., €40 for the Mantelzorg bij dementie course). Distribution is community-embedded—care is delivered through the two physical residential sites and roaming district nursing teams rather than digital channels—and intake is mediated by general practitioners, municipalities, and a centralized regional hub that processes approximately 1,300 district-nursing requests per month as part of the IedereenZorgt in de Wijk collaboration of 28 organizations. A volunteer network coordinated by dedicated staff supplements paid caregivers across woonzorgcentra, meal delivery, and caregiver support.

Strategically, Vughterstede is pursuing scale through a proposed January 1, 2027 merger with Vivent (a peer VVT organization in Noordoost-Brabant, currently in feasibility study with seven program groups), the construction of Willibrordus as a new combined independent-living and care facility, and deepening participation in the broader IedereenZorgt (12 VVT organizations) and RSO VOORuit regional digitalization initiatives (18 healthcare organizations targeting shared electronic handover, proactive care planning, home monitoring, and connection to the Landelijk Platform Zorgcoördinatie). The organization is governed by a single-member Board led by drs. M.J. (Peggy) van der Koelen under a five-member Supervisory Board.
