Zorgwijs is a digital platform for people with disabilities seeking care and support. On www.zorgwijs.be, you can find options for both adults and minors. Using search tools with filters such as type of support, target group, and location, you can explore available possibilities in your area. Those specifically looking for a personal assistant can post a vacancy, while personal assistants can also present themselves on the platform. Zorgwijs helps create the perfect match between those seeking support and those offering it.
The Waarderingsplatform (Appreciation Platform) is another useful tool for well-informed care seekers. On www.waarderingsplatform.be, you’ll find reviews of care locations written by users. This gives you firsthand insights into how others experience the care provided—an invaluable resource for making informed decisions. On the platform, you can also share your own reviews.
This pilot project by the Flemish Government contributes to greater transparency and fosters dialogue between care users and providers. Additionally, it highlights positive stories in the care sector. The Waarderingsplatform isn’t just for people with disabilities; it also serves the childcare, elderly care, and youth care sectors. The more the platform grows, the greater its impact becomes.
