Temporary care options

A person aged 65 or over with care needs can temporarily stay in a residential care home for what is known as a short stay.

Are the care responsibilities for someone aged 65 or over becoming a little too much? Then check whether a residential care home near you has a short stay place available. You can do this quickly and easily at www.kortverblijven.be.

Found a suitable residential care home? Contact them directly to arrange the short stay.

Discover your Helan advantage for short stays

A specialised recovery centre where you can rehabilitate after a hospital stay or intensive treatment.

During a care or recovery stay, the focus is on rehabilitation rather than medical treatment. You stay in an adapted environment where you can recover in peace and in the best possible conditions. In most centres, your partner or informal carer is welcome to stay with you. If you choose a recognised care stay, you will also receive reimbursement from your Helan Health Insurance.

Found a suitable care stay? Contact the centre directly to arrange your stay.
