Residents of WZC Rozenberg can cycle virtually
The residents can cycle 650 routes worldwide and when they are tired, the device of 11,000 euros takes over for them. Ann Vanhoutte, Arseus Medical: “People experience it as if they are cycling outside. The intestinal system is stimulated internally. They are better able to go to the toilet. The muscles are trained without realizing that they are being trained.” (continue reading below the photo)
For the residential care center it is a boost, after a long time of negative coverage. A murder and attempted murder investigation is still ongoing here. Rozenberg is still under increased supervision and there was another suspicious death this weekend, although not comparable. A resident who was on palliative care died. Carine Geldhof, Alderman of Welfare Oostrozebeke: “That was not a complaint from our institution, but from someone else. It was a complaint that has been completely resolved. The circumstances were completely different from those other deaths. It has nothing to do with it.”
In any case, the residents here are happy with their gift.
