What Vilente does

Vilente (legally Stichting Vilente) is a Dutch non-profit foundation that provides elderly care services, including residential living with care (Wonen met zorg), community-based home care and hospice services (Zorg in de wijk), and short-term rehabilitation care (Tijdelijke zorg). It was established in 2005 through the merger of four similar foundations and serves elderly individuals with dementia and physical disabilities across the municipalities of Ede, Renkum, and Wageningen in the province of Gelderland, Netherlands, with one additional home care site in Bunschoten-Spakenburg. Vilente operates 11 residential care facilities, including a specialized vegetarian care center (Felixoord), and is differentiated by its Planetree-certified person-centered care methodology.

The organization's technology stack centers on an Elektronisch cliëntendossier (ECD) — an electronic client record system — integrated with the Caren client portal, which allows clients and family members to view care agreements, care plans, medical information, and scheduled appointments. Vilente also operates a 'Vilente Flex' flexbureau and a learning and training program ('Leren en Opleiden') to manage workforce capacity, and has signed the Green Deal Zorg (December 2024) to align operations with ESG principles and prepare for CSRD reporting requirements.

Vilente's revenue model is based on healthcare service fees reimbursed through the Dutch social healthcare insurance system, specifically the Wlz (Long-term Care Act) and Wmo (Social Support Act) provisions. Pricing is government-regulated rather than market-based, and Vilente operates as a non-profit foundation with no disclosed funding rounds, equity investors, or external capital raises. Its go-to-market is direct service provision through its owned facility network across a defined regional catchment, with customer acquisition handled through website inquiries, a general advice line, referrals, and partnerships with regional healthcare coordinators.
