Dutch Delegation Visits the NCCR

     Mrs. Anja Meulenbelt, chairperson of Kifaia Foundation, and Mr. Deny De Jong, Ideeel Association, were the representatives of a Dutch delegation who visited the National Center for Community Rehabilitation in order to make a comprehensive evaluation to Home Care Program in all branches of the National Center, in addition to technically follow up the reports and proposals.

     Furthermore, the Dutch delegation's visit lasted for three days in which they visited branches of the National Center in Gaza, Middle and Southern governorates. They also met with teams of Home Care Program in each branch in an effort to make a comprehensive evaluation which handles all matters related to the disabled people in Gaza Strip, especially to the physically disabled cases that are psychologically and medically followed; in addition to the allocated files for each case of the disabled people.

     Additionally, meetings with Mr. Deny tackled the effects of present circumstances in Gaza Strip on the disabled people within such a clear increase of numbers of disabilities. Consequently, the NCCR suffers from a big stress in receiving increased number of cases who need care and assistive devices.

     All the way through a meeting with the NCCR's administration, Mr. Deny discussed the mechanism to overcome all the difficulties that the disabled people face, such as the shortage of medical materials, assistive devices and other needs. It is worthy to mention that it was a very positive and constructive meeting in which everyone had his own ideas and  suggestions due to providing more services for disabled Palestinians .
