Never before so many residential care centers under increased supervision

The number has doubled in a few months. There are now 25, and there are also 5 West Flemish residential care centers, such as Rozenberg in Oostrozebeke and this month Rusterloo was also added, in Beernem.

The residential care centers that are under increased supervision do not get rid of certain shortcomings and they have to undergo extra checks. Only when there are structural improvements do they disappear from the list. The biggest problem is a shortage of personnel, says the Agency for Care and Health.
