Ergotherapie van Dam

What Ergotherapie van Dam does

Ergotherapie van Dam is a regional Dutch occupational therapy practice founded in 2013 by Anne van Dam in Sint-Oedenrode, North Brabant. The practice helps adults and elderly individuals experiencing functional limitations from conditions such as Parkinson's, dementia, COPD, MS, stroke (CVA), rheumatism, oncology, and Long COVID participate in daily activities through personalized home-based or workplace-based therapy. Services include training in daily activity performance, advice on and procurement support for assistive devices, home and workplace modifications, energy-management coaching, cognitive rehabilitation, sensory integration therapy, fall prevention, and caregiver (mantelzorg) support.

The clinical approach rests on five standardized, evidence-based treatment methodologies — Cognitieve Revalidatie Therapie (CRT), Sensorische Integratie (ASITT), EDOMAH, Energieverdeling d.m.v. Activiteitenweger, and Valpreventie (ValNet) — delivered by a team of 8 specialized occupational therapists, each with distinct subspecializations. The practice operates from 5 multidisciplinary health centers in Schijndel, Boxtel, Sint-Oedenrode, Veghel, and Uden, providing co-located access to GPs, physiotherapists, and other disciplines, and serves approximately 13 towns across 5 municipalities.

Commercially, Ergotherapie van Dam operates as a direct-to-consumer practice under the Dutch basispakket: every insured Dutch resident is entitled to up to 10 hours of ergotherapy per calendar year under basic health insurance, with additional hours available via supplementary policies. No physician referral is required — patients self-register via the website's online aanmeldformulier. Revenue is generated through fee-for-service reimbursement from Dutch health insurers, supplemented by self-paying clients. The practice maintains a 9.6/10 rating on Zorgkaart Nederland and is registered in the Kwaliteitsregister Paramedici, with affiliations across ParkinsonNet, MS Zorg Nederland, EDOMAH, SCR Nederland, NSSI, and several regional care networks.
