Radio Steunkous
A weekly radio show run by Buurtzorg nurses

Radio Steunkous (Radio Support Stockings) is a weekly radio show run by Buurtzorg nurses.
In Amsterdam, Buurtzorg nurses run a weekly radio show, Radio Steunkous, which translates as radio “support stocking”. It offers health advice, provides information on local services, and puts people in touch with each other. One of the nurses, Marjolijn Onvlee, says the show complements their day-to-day care:
“It's all about having contact with people, sharing experience, and that's what people need, and it makes them feel better.”
