PZC Dordrecht

What PZC Dordrecht does

PZC Dordrecht (legal name Protestantse Zorggroep Crabbehoff) is a Dutch non-profit healthcare foundation founded in 1964, providing integrated elderly and vulnerable-adult care across three locations in Dordrecht: Crabbehoven, Dubbelmonde, and Albert Schweitzerplaats. Its service portfolio spans residential care with specialized wards for dementia, Parkinson's, MS, non-congenital brain injury (NAH), and long-term consciousness disorders (LBS); rehabilitation and recovery services; day care and activity programming (Dag- en Doecentrum Crabbehoven); home care including the Volledig Pakket Thuis (VPT) full-package-at-home model; and independent-living rental apartments. Headcount sits in the 501–1,000 range and operations are concentrated in the Drechtsteden region of South Holland.

The business model is funded primarily through the Dutch public healthcare insurance and indication system (zorgverzekering / zorgwet), with secondary revenue from resident personal contributions and on-site commercial services such as the PZC-pas prepaid card (loaded via iDeal on the Quarto portal). Customer acquisition is referral-driven from GPs, hospitals, and the CIZ indication system rather than commercial sales. Supporting digital infrastructure includes the Caren Client Portal (third-party), an online activity calendar, and a freshly re-launched corporate website. The organization is governed by a Raad van Toezicht and is in leadership transition, with Arjo Hoogwerf appointed as permanent bestuurder effective August 1, 2026.

Strategically, PZC Dordrecht announced in April 2026 its intent to merge with fellow regional elder-care provider Aafje, effective January 1, 2027, with the stated objective of consolidating leadership in Drechtsteden. As of the available sources, the merger is announced but not yet completed. No revenue, ARR, or audited financial figures are publicly disclosed beyond references to Jaarrekening 2024 and 2025 annual reports; the organization does not appear to raise external funding and operates as an independent foundation with a related Friends-of-PZC support foundation.
