Key messages

✅

What we say

• People get trapped between care, municipalities, mental health, welfare and insurers — not through one single failure, but through accumulation.
• We are not looking for culprits. We are looking for patterns.
• Coordination without mandate is just meetings with a better name.
• Waiting is not always the same: sometimes a situation worsens while someone waits.
❌

What we do not say

• We do not name individual care providers or institutions as culpable.
• We do not claim scientific status for collected experiences.
• We do not replace care, crisis support or legal advice.

About the founder

Rogér Castelijn is the founder of Zorgfuik.nl and Foundation Zorgfuik, based in IJsselstein, the Netherlands.

Zorgfuik emerged from personal experience and the conviction that getting stuck in the care system should not remain a private problem when the same pattern keeps recurring.
