Abstract
In 1972 I graduated from the State University of Rotterdam in general medicine. I intended to go into psychiatry as a specialty, but I had six months before training started and a colleague who was moving to a hospital asked me to replace him in a nursing home. This is how I started working in a nursing home. I became so interested in the field that after two months I decided to stay and not go into psychiatry.
