Annemiek Coremans
Born in 1957, I worked as an internal medicine specialist at Bernhoven for 31 years.
The last ten years of my career was also an investigator of calamities in healthcare. Together with a colleague, we investigated the underlying causes of a serious incident in the care in order to learn and improve.
As a hospital, we think this is very important, but it doesn’t benefit the patient much.
When I retired in 2022, I decided to volunteer to guide patients and/or their families who end up in a calamity process.
In 2025 I am doing this for 3 years. Patients have never been before so grateful for anything I did and guiding them gives me great satisfaction.
