In 1880 a noble built a spacious doctor's house and a hospice with a farm on his property. A year later, the sisters of Saint Vincentius a Paulo van Waarschoot were asked to take care of the hospice and education in the parish school. Due to the growing number of poor people who could enjoy the free consultations, the hospice continued to expand. A first operation in 1888 eventually led to the development of a medical and surgical clinic. In 1934, the Congregation of the Sisters of Saint Vincentius a Paulo van Waarschoot became the owner of the land and buildings. The Congregation took care of the operation of the hospital, in addition to that of their residential care center in Waarschoot. In 1946 the clinic already had 100 beds. In 1957, the residence for elders was organized next to the clinic. The hospital and the retirement home became a household name in Gentbrugge, until the end of 1998, the Sint-Jozef clinic was separated from the non-profit organization St. Vincentius a Paulo. This is the result of the merger with the AZ Maria Middelares from Ghent. A new non-profit organization AZ Maria Middelares – Sint Jozef was created , which mainly focused on acute medical care. The operation of the RVT hospital and the Ter Hovingen rest home continued to be managed by the Sisters of Saint Vincentius a Paulo van Waarschoot. In 2001 a new non-profit organization was established: Ter Hovingen vzw . The statutes of the non-profit association were published in the Official Gazette on January 24, 2002. It is also this new non-profit association, to which the operation was transferred by agreement of 25 June 2002, which has focused in recent years on the new construction project. Woonzorgcentrum Ter Hovingen uit Gentbrugge werkte heel nauw samen met Vives vzw, Een samenwerking die jaar na jaar steeds intenser werd. Zo ontwikkelde zich uit die samenwerking het unieke 37R (trendsetter)-verhaal en engageerde men zich om met gelukkige mensen, mensen gelukkig te maken. Bij Vives vzw vond men de waarden Liefde, Verantwoordelijkheid en Creativiteit, en in Ter Hovingen vzw ontdekte men de bezielende kracht van Sint Vincentius a Paolo, die ons leerde onze handen te gebruiken met de kracht van ons hart. Met de samenwerking van de Vives vzw en Ter Hovingen vzw in 2002 was de nood ontstaan aan een kostendelende rechtspersoon, die de dagelijkse organisatie van 4 zorginitiatieven, nl. Zorgresidentie Onze-Lieve-Vrouw-ter-Rive (Gent), Serviceresidentie Rozendael (Gent), Woonzorgcentrum Heilige Familie (Kieldrecht) en Woonzorgcentrum Ter Hovingen (Gentbrugge) structuur gaf. Eind 2017 ontstond de wens om de samenwerking compleet te maken en ook de juridische structuren en bestuursinstanties van beide organisaties met elkaar te laten versmelten. Zo ontstond op 25 april 2018 één nieuwe vzw, genaamd: Conecto vzw. With Conecto vzw - which means as much as “I connect” - we want to embrace all our institutions with care. In this way we - faithful to the rich and caring traditions of the shared past - remain literally and figuratively connected by care.
