  • Vorselaar Dementiewegwijzer
    VORSELAAR DEMENTIEWEGWIJZER 1 VOORWOORD Als iemand te maken krijgt met dementie roept dit veel vragen op bij de betrokkene en zijn omgeving. Dementie heb je immers niet alleen. Het is belangrijk om correcte informatie en de juiste ondersteuning te krijgen van bij het begin van het dementieproces. ‘Waar kan ik terecht als ik een vermoeden heb dat er iets mis is?’, ‘Wie helpt in de dagelijkse verzorging?’, ‘Wie coördineert de thuiszorg?’ of ‘Wat als het thuis echt niet meer lukt?’ zijn slechts enkele waardevolle vragen waarop je in deze sociale kaart een antwoord vindt. Het expertisecentrum Dementie Tandem heeft een inventaris opgemaakt van de belangrijkste actoren in de zorg voor personen met dementie, om je wegwijs te maken in het Kempense zorgaanbod. Per gemeente is de adequate hulpverlening aan personen met dementie en/of hun omgeving op een overzichtelijke manier weergegeven. Als u twijfelt met welke dienst u het best contact kan opnemen, uw mutualiteit of het OCMW kunnen u quasi steeds verder helpen (ofwel intern, ofwel door u door te verwijzen). Met dank aan SEL Kempen voor het ter beschikking stellen van hun reeds opgemaakte wegwijzer voor eerstelijnsgezondheidszorg in de Kempen en aan ECD Broes waarvan hun dementiewijzer een echte inspiratiebron was. Indien bepaalde informatie niet langer correct is, gelieve ons dan op de hoogte te brengen zodat we de sociale kaart(en) kunnen aanpassen.

ABSTRACT. Stratigraphic analysis of cored and geophysically logged boreholes in the Kasterlee-Geel-Retie-Mol-Dessel area of the Belgian Campine has established the presence of two lithostratigraphic units between the classical Diest and Mol Formations, geometrically related to the type Kasterlee Sand occurring west of the Kasterlee village and the study area. A lower ‘clayey Kasterlee’ unit, equivalent to the lithology occurring at the top of the Beerzel and Heist-op-den-Berg hills, systematically occurs to the east of the Kasterlee village. An overlying unit has a pale colour making it lithostratigraphically comparable to Mol Sand although its fine grain size, traces of glauconite and geometrical position have traditionally led stratigraphers to consider it as a lateral variety of the type Kasterlee Sand; it has been named the ‘lower Mol’ or ‘Kasterlee-sensu-Gulinck’ unit in this study.

Belgium is a federal constitutional monarchy with a parliamentary system of governance. It is divided into three regions and three communities, that exist next to each other. Its two largest regions are the Dutch-speaking region of Flanders in the north and the French-speaking southern region of Wallonia. The Brussels-Capital Region, officially bilingual, is a mostly French-speaking enclave within the Flemish Region. A German-speaking Community exists in eastern Wallonia. Belgium's linguistic diversity and related political conflicts are reflected in its political history and complex system of government Antwerp is the most populous city in Flanders. Antwerp is on the River Scheldt, linked to the North Sea by the Westerschelde estuary. The Port of Antwerp is one of the biggest in the world, ranking second in Europe and within the top 20 globally. 1 Antwerp has long been an important city in the Low Countries, both economically and culturally, especially before the Spanish Fury (1576) in the Dutch Revolt.
