Anders Werken in de Zorg (AWIZ)
Anders Werken in de Zorg (AWIZ) drives the movement to successfully implement innovations in healthcare. As a national collaboration of healthcare organizations, AWIZ is committed to increasing clients’ collective self-reliance and reducing the workload of professionals. To achieve this, its more than 175 affiliated organizations collaborate regionally and share and develop (supra)regional knowledge, for example through research initiatives. AWIZ proactively connects with knowledge institutions and organizations in the field of research and development. At the national level, AWIZ represents healthcare practice as an essential partner in the triangle of policy, research, and practice.

Results include the implementation of labor-supporting technological and process innovations, such as self-managed medication, bed sensors, and the optimization of the compression stocking process. National framework agreements have also been concluded, such as the recent agreements with Intrakoop and Wolk, enabling organizations to accelerate the procurement of innovations and adopt them under collective conditions.
