What Zorghavengroep does

Zorghavengroep is a private Dutch healthcare organization founded by Ronald and Marieke Oostlander that operates a network of small-scale residential care facilities (particuliere verzorgingshuizen) across the Netherlands. The company serves elderly residents requiring nursing-level care, with particular specialization in dementia care, and operates 11 facilities totaling approximately 218 apartments across municipalities in Zuid-Holland (including Rotterdam, Schiedam, Vlaardingen, Dordrecht, Barendrecht, Capelle aan den IJssel, Poortugaal, Berkel en Rodenrijs, and Zwijndrecht) and Noord-Brabant (Oss), with a twelfth location in Zwijndrecht under construction for September/October 2026 opening.

The company's core offering is 24-hour personalized residential care delivered in deliberately small facilities of 12 to 39 apartments each, preserving residents' personal lifestyles and habits through family involvement in room furnishing and individualized activities. Specialized dementia care emphasizes identity preservation and connecting care with personal experiences. The product portfolio comprises primarily location-based services under sub-brands such as Oude Haven, Nieuwe Haven, Berghse Haven, Buyten Haven, Zuyder Haven, Maes Haven, Parck Haven, De Wilgenhoeve, IJssel Haven, Haven du Pont, Berckendael, and the forthcoming Lindtsche Haven, supplemented by digital tours for prospective families.

Zorghavengroep employs a hybrid revenue model combining private-pay monthly rental and service fees (€2,000–€3,700 per month, covering housing, utilities, insurance, common areas, and 24-hour caregiver presence) with publicly-funded care services reimbursed through the Dutch Long-term Care Act (Wet langdurige zorg) and Health Insurance Act (Zorgverzekeringswet). The go-to-market approach is direct-to-consumer via website inquiries, social media (Facebook, LinkedIn, Instagram), facility tours, open days, and family referrals. Real estate is typically obtained through sale-and-leaseback arrangements (Brickfund for Lindtsche Haven) or operational partnerships with property owners (Bruele Vastgoed for Maes Haven), enabling a capital-light expansion model. The company is founder-owned with no disclosed external investors, completed one acquisition (Berckendael in November 2024), and operates under regulatory oversight from the Inspectie Gezondheidszorg en Jeugd (IGJ) with formal client councils and external client advocacy (Stemgever).

Revenue model

1. Residential care rental and services: Zorghavengroep generates revenue through monthly rental and service fees for residential care accommodations. These fees cover housing costs including energy, use of common areas, insurance, television, telephone, emergency systems, and 24-hour caregiver presence. Care services are separately covered through the Dutch Long-term Care Act (Wet langdurige zorg) or Health Insurance Act (Zorgverzekeringswet), for which residents pay an income-dependent personal contribution (eigen bijdrage). This creates a hybrid revenue model combining private pay for accommodation with publicly-funded care services.
