Florence: The Digital Backbone for Home Nursing Practices

The Complexity of Home Nursing Administration

Running a home nursing practice in Belgium means juggling a thousand moving parts. Nurses visiting patients across different municipalities. RIZIV codes and nomenclature that change constantly. Insurance fund communications (mutualiteiten). Financial distributions between practice and nurses. Patient observation tracking. Contract management. Payouts calculations.

Most practices handle this with spreadsheets, paper files, and a lot of manual work.

There’s a better way.

What Florence Does

Florence is a complete practice management platform built specifically for Belgian home nursing organizations (thuisverpleging).

Nurse Management: Track all your nurses in one place. RIZIV numbers, KBO/BCE registrations, bank accounts, contact details, and legal entities. Link users to specific nurses for granular access control.

Financial Distribution: Automatically calculate and track how revenue is distributed between the practice and individual nurses. Admin fees, self-invoicing, payout tracking-all handled transparently.

Patient Observations: Nurses can record and track patient observations directly in the system. No more paper notes getting lost or illegible handwriting.

Contract Management: Keep all nursing contracts organized and accessible. Track which nurses have which contracts, expiration dates, and renewal needs.

CareConnect Integration: Sync with existing healthcare systems through CareConnect. Import nurse data automatically instead of manual entry.

Multi-Practice Support: For organizations managing multiple practices or locations, Florence provides workspace-based isolation while maintaining central oversight.

Built for Belgian Healthcare

Florence understands Belgian healthcare realities:

  • RIZIV/INAMI Integration: Native support for Belgian healthcare provider identifiers
  • Mutualiteit Communication: Designed for the Belgian insurance fund landscape
  • KBO/BCE Registration: Track company registrations as required by law
  • Bilingual: Works in Dutch and French-because that’s Belgium

The Technical Foundation

Florence is built on a modern, secure stack:

  • Role-Based Access: Admins, users, and viewers with granular permissions
  • Workspace Isolation: Complete data separation between practices
  • File Management: Secure document storage for contracts and certificates
  • Audit Trail: Track who changed what and when
  • API-First: Ready for integration with other healthcare systems

Who Florence Helps

Independent Home Nursing Practices

You started a practice to care for patients, not to drown in paperwork. Florence handles the administration so you can focus on what matters-patient care.

Group Practices & Nursing Pools

Managing multiple nurses with different arrangements? Florence tracks individual admin fee percentages, self-invoicing preferences, and payout schedules for each nurse.

Practice Managers

Finally, visibility into the entire operation. See all nurses, their contracts, their financials, and their patient loads in one dashboard.

Privacy & Security

Healthcare data is sensitive. Florence is designed with this in mind:

  • Belgian Hosting: Your data stays in Belgium
  • GDPR Compliant: Privacy by design, not as an afterthought
  • Role-Based Access: Staff see only what they need to see
  • Secure Authentication: JWT-based authentication with workspace context
  • No Third-Party Analytics: We don’t sell your data or your patients’ data

The Florence Difference

Other practice management tools try to be everything for everyone. Florence is different:

  • Belgian-First: Built specifically for the Belgian healthcare system, not adapted from another country’s regulations
  • Home Nursing Focus: Not a hospital system shoehorned into home care
  • Modern Architecture: Built with 2025 technology, not patched 2005 software
  • Transparent Pricing: No per-nurse fees that punish you for growing
