DEZORGBV

What DEZORGBV does

De Zorg BV (trading as DEZORGBV) is a Netherlands-based healthcare staffing and services company headquartered in Uitgeest, North Holland. Founded by Marcello Torrisi and the late Chris Mes, the company operates a network of more than 175 highly trained ambulance healthcare professionals and supplies qualified nursing, ambulance, mental-health (GGZ), elderly-care (VVT), and hospital personnel to Dutch healthcare organizations on a detachment and temporary-staffing basis. Its service portfolio spans four core lines — Zorgdetachering (staffing), Uitzendbureau (temp staffing), Werving en Selectie (permanent recruitment) — and three support lines: a 24/7 Zorgmeldkamer (healthcare dispatch center) for acute care triage and coordination, Medische Repatriëring for national and international medical transport, and De Zorgacademie for in-house training and competency certification delivered via the Doczero digital learning environment.

The business model is professional-services driven: De Zorg BV acts as legal employer for placed professionals, handling payroll and benefits, and is remunerated on placement and managed-service fees tied to Dutch collective labor agreements (CAO) for hospitals, ambulance, and care-home staff. Pricing is not publicly disclosed and is tailored to each healthcare organization. GTM is sales-led and direct, with account managers engaging hospitals, ambulance services, GGZ institutions, and care homes, complemented by a consumer-facing recruitment website and active social channels (LinkedIn, Facebook). The proprietary technology layer is modest: a Plannings-app allows professionals to view open shifts and self-manage schedules, and the academy runs on Doczero. There is no disclosed API, AI/ML capability, or formal security certification, though the company references GDPR (AVG) compliance and signals alignment with ISO 27001 and NEN 7510 norms in its dispatch-center vendor criteria.

The company is privately held by founders, with no institutional investors, parent, or public listing disclosed. Leadership consists of Algemeen Directeur Marcello Torrisi, Commercieel Directeur Ron van Boven, and Chief Happiness Officer Helma Torrisi, supported by a planner and operational staff. The recent passing of co-founder Chris Mes concentrates ownership and operational responsibility with Torrisi and introduces a near-term leadership-transition risk against an otherwise strong-growth, multi-vertical, Netherlands-only footprint.
