Human Rights of Older Persons and Long-Term Care (2016)
Monitoring Report on The Human Rights situation of Older Persons in Belgian Residential Care Settings.
Within the framework of the ENNHRI project ‘Human Rights of Older Persons and Long-Term Care’, Unia carried out monitoring in a number of residential care centres in Belgium in relation to these rights. The results of this research are discussed in this report: ‘Monitoring report on The Human Rights situation of Older Persons in Belgian Residential Care Settings’. During this ENNHRI monitoring a random sample was made in 9 residential care centres. The observations with regard to human rights should therefore by no means be generalised.
