15 mins confidence:

care recipient

Explanation:
Even though this is slightly different in meaning than a 'zorgvrager', it is a standard term in the healthcare field.

See for example the following quote, which is about someone applying for (not yet receiving) care:

"Work with the care recipient to identify the areas where outside help and/or professional assistance is needed."
