About Emergis

Industry
Mental Health

In their own words

About the company & team

Emergis is a social organization for mental health and well-being in Zeeland. Every year, we help approximately 13,000 children, young people, adults, and seniors with mental health issues in the broadest sense. We do this together with about 1,400 employees on-site, ambulatory, and digitally. We work from the philosophy of Positive Health, where the emphasis lies on people's resilience and on what makes life meaningful.

Elderly mental healthcare is a specialization within mental health care that focuses on elderly people with serious mental challenges. Usually, it concerns people aged 65 and older, but it is primarily the nature of the complaints that is decisive. These complaints often consist of a combination of mental and emotional behavioral problems, along with psychosocial disruption and dysfunction, which are regularly reinforced by physical and cognitive changes. All of this takes place in a life stage with its own dynamics and specific stressors.
