Transfer to Aethon, a conscious choice for the future

To continue this approach on a larger scale and to serve clients and international healthcare professionals even better, Aethon was chosen as a strategic partner. Aethon has a strong position in healthcare and childcare and has extensive experience with the deployment of international healthcare professionals. This combination makes Aethon ideally suited to further strengthen the initiated development and bring international healthcare recruitment to the next phase.

"International healthcare professionals consciously choose a career acceleration in the Netherlands. They are highly educated, motivated, and make a valuable contribution to the quality of care daily. Moreover, we see that our clients are particularly satisfied with their efforts. By adding the knowledge, experience, and network of OTTO Health Care to Aethon, we can support even more healthcare organizations with sustainable solutions for their personnel challenges." Ad Verwijs, Directeur Zorgvernieuwing Aethon.

”For healthcare organizations, the service does not change: continuity, quality, and reliability remain central. The transition is being carefully designed, with attention to employees, clients, and partners, so that the service can be continued unabated. In this process, a portion of the involved internal employees of OTTO Health Care will move to Aethon, ensuring that valuable knowledge, experience, and existing relationships are preserved."

Looking ahead: collaboration and continuity

The knowledge and experience built up within OTTO Health Care will be preserved and further utilized within OTTO Work Force via OTTO Global Services. The focus is on OTTO's core sectors, such as logistics, production, and engineering, where OTTO has been a market leader for years. At the same time, OTTO will continue to collaborate with Aethon on specific components, including the housing of the international employees. For this, the existing network of certified housing partners will be used.

This joining of forces creates a market-leading organization in the field of international healthcare professionals. By combining the experience of OTTO Health Care with the scale and expertise of Aethon, the deployment of international healthcare professionals in the Netherlands will remain well-organized and sustainably secured in the future.
