Corona outbreak Crimpenersteyn residential care center

Crimpenersteyn residential care center, part of De Zellingen, has been dealing with a corona outbreak since last week, of which the source is not clear. At the time of writing, 56 of the 217 residents and 19 employees have tested positive for corona. The outbreak appears to be stabilizing.

The situation appears to be stable, as the number of suspicions and positive results is not increasing any further. In addition, various residents will be allowed out of quarantine in the coming days. As stated earlier, all residents who have previously tested negative will be tested again this Monday, with which we try to keep the situation under control as much as possible.

The GGD has indicated that, contrary to a previously shared message, re-testing of employees is not necessary. That is why employees are only tested for corona-related complaints. Due to dropouts, the pressure on the departments is currently so high that we are making an inventory of which staff employees can support in the care sector when the situation requires it. Nevertheless, we do everything we can to offer more than just basic care. For example, attention is paid to the well-being of our residents and Christmas pieces are made in a number of departments, taking into account the measures. In addition, we do everything we can to spend the Christmas season with our residents in a beautiful and intimate way.

The visit guideline has been further tightened from Saturday 19 December. As of that date, 1 regular visitor per resident per day is welcome. We hope that this tightening of the visit guideline, together with the consistent and correct wearing of personal protective equipment by visitors and employees, will contribute to further reducing the coronavirus at the Crimpenersteyn location, so that the complete closure of the location is prevented.

We can only handle corona together!

Municipalities support National Moluccan Monument

This year it will be 70 years ago that the 1st generation Moluccans were transferred to the Netherlands in 1951 with 12 ship transports. On command, about 4000 Moluccan KNIL soldiers and Navy men came to the Netherlands with their families (in total 12,500 persons). At the point of arrival of the 1st transport ship at the Lloydkade in Rotterdam, it is not yet possible to trace a historical event. The National Moluccan Monument Foundation (LMM) is committed to realizing a monument. The monument will be a tribute to this 1st generation Moluccans and their families and in recognition of the shared past. The monument can also serve to continue telling the story of the arrival of Moluccans in the Netherlands to current and future generations. For anyone interested in this history, the foundation wants to offer an opportunity to learn more. They believe that more knowledge of each other's past leads to more understanding. To realize a monument, the LMM foundation has entered into a p

Largest water lily in the world blooms in Leiden

The oldest botanical garden in the Netherlands, the Hortus Botanicus in Leiden, has a wonderful pineapple scent. That means that the Victoria Amazonica is in bloom. With leaves that can grow up to two meters wide, this is the largest water lily in the world and its flowers smell like pineapple. The flower of the Victoria Amazonica is a night bloomer and only blooms in high summer. What is special is that the water lily only blooms for two nights. Rogier de Vugt, cashier of the Leiden Hortus Botanicus, knows everything about the plant. "The first night the flower is white and gives off a strong pineapple smell, which attracts beetles. The second night the flower turns pink and has no smell anymore. The beetles still come to it and are covered with pollen", explains De Vugt. Because the plant has an enormous size, only one can grow in the pond of the Hortus. "The leaves have raised edges, so they can't grow over each other, so they can't get any light anymore. Th
