"From administrative frameworks to unruly practice and from dreaming to doing; procurement of youth aid requires clear objectives, a clear arrangement and firm choices. EHDK helped us with this in the South Holland South region. As process supervisor, they have, with all their knowledge and experience, provided the impetus for a future-proof design of the youth aid landscape."
"De pragmatische insteek van EHdK helpt mij als opdrachtgever om écht verder te komen. Dit doen ze met kennis van de inhoud en met een mooie mix van toekomstgericht werken en door tegelijkertijd praktisch aan de slag te gaan vanuit hun kennis van de praktijk. Tijdens bijeenkomsten hebben ze een werkstijl die uitnodigt om met elkaar het echte gesprek te voeren, ook voor partijen die dat soms lastig vinden, met als gevolg dat er gezamenlijk een duurzame stap gezet kan worden."
Wietske Veltman
"De afgelopen jaren heb ik in verschillende dossiers, binnen en buiten GGZ Friesland, mogen samenwerken met de mensen van EHdK. Eigenlijk is het gewoon onwijs leuk om met hen samen te zoeken naar pragmatische, maar goed onderbouwde, oplossingen voor best wel ingewikkelde vraagstukken. En die oplossingen vinden we dan ook! Van samenwerking tussen GGZ en Sociaal Domein tot Hoog Specialistische Jeugdzorg, en van strategie discussies tot Leiderschap in Suïcidepreventie."
Ton Dhondt
“EHdK is een goede sparringpartner die direct vanaf de start met ons meedenkt. Ze maken de problemen niet ingewikkelder dan ze zijn, maar komen direct tot de kern en gaan dan vervolgens hands on aan de slag. In de samenwerking zijn de lijnen kort en weten we elkaar snel te vinden.”
Mariënne Verhoef
"The cooperation around Highly Specialized Youth Care between different providers in Friesland has been supported by EHdK from the beginning. In an independent and expert role, EHdK has contributed both strategically and practically to the establishment of the cooperation. By coming up with substantive advice, but also by knowing the game and the players and from there ensuring connection and commitment."
"We are enthusiastic about these people. They very skillfully establish the relationship between the worlds of healthcare and business administration, they are decisive and pragmatic and have the ability to get things down to the essentials without getting complicated. They are also pleasant people, something that helps when it comes to the difficult issues we face."
"In recent years I have had the opportunity to work with the people of EHdK in various files, within and outside GGZ Friesland. It's actually great fun to work with them to find pragmatic but well-founded solutions to complex issues. And we do find those solutions! From cooperation between GGZ and Social Domain to High Specialist Youth Care, and from strategy discussions to Leadership in Suicide Prevention."
"EHdK's pragmatic approach helps me as a client to really move forward. They do this with knowledge of the content and with a nice mix of future-oriented work and at the same time by getting to work practically on the basis of their knowledge of practice. During meetings they have a working style that invites to have the real conversation with each other, also for parties who sometimes find that difficult, with the result that together a sustainable step can be taken."
"EHdK heeft ons geholpen met de vragen die we hadden, ondersteunt ons in een verdere professionaliseringslag en is ondersteunend in scenario’s en verschillende perspectieven. EHdK heeft verstand van het sociaal domein, kan goed zowel strategisch en pragmatisch meedenken en levert vlot en goed werk"
Duco Stuurman
"De samenwerking rond Hoogspecialistische Jeugdzorg tussen verschillende aanbieders in Friesland is van het begin af aan door EHdK ondersteund. In een onafhankelijke en deskundige rol heeft EHdK zowel strategisch als praktisch bijgedragen aan het tot stand komen van de samenwerking. Door met inhoudelijke adviezen te komen, maar ook door het spel en de spelers te kennen en vandaaruit te zorgen voor verbinding en commitment."

"EHDK is one of the few consulting firms, which do not stop at consulting, but contribute <em>hands-on</em> to the implementation of the advice. That makes them special and valuable in the youth domain."

Duco Stuurman

"EHdK helped us with the questions we had, supports us in further professionalization and is supportive in scenarios and different perspectives. EHdK understands the social domain, can think along well both strategically and pragmatically and delivers smooth and good work."
