Part-time Job as a Care Assistant

As a care assistant, you focus on care and well-being. You are there for residents with dementia and focus on ADL care (washing, dressing, eating and drinking), but also prepare meals, assist colleagues with nursing technical procedures, and carry out activities with residents.

Together with the residents and your colleagues, you determine what the day looks like. In doing so, you think in terms of possibilities: what else can be done? And because you know the residents well, physical or psychological changes catch your attention immediately.

At Amstelring, we stimulate the personal strength and self-reliance of residents as much as possible. So that people maintain their dignity and experience more quality of life. We therefore focus more on well-being, and as a care assistant, you will also contribute to this. You are truly there for the residents: you regularly ask how someone is feeling, listen to what someone wants, and take an interest in someone's personal story.

We work in a self-organizing manner; the teams themselves determine how they provide care and support, organize their work, and distribute team tasks. You will work day and evening shifts, from 7:30 AM to 3:30 PM or from 3:00 PM to 10:45 PM.

In your work as a care assistant, just like every colleague, you have a field of interest, for example hygiene or medication. You may indicate what you find interesting. You also get the chance to continue developing yourself, both in your role and beyond. For example, you can broaden your knowledge through training such as 'Dealing with aggression', 'Dealing with dementia', or the 'Bystander' training. Or you can grow further by following a training program to become an IG caregiver (verzorgende IG).

In the heart of the Amsterdam Kinkerbuurt, you will find De Klinker. A truly Amsterdam residential care center where local residents and all kinds of cultures meet. It is actually always cozy and lively! De Klinker has 19 care apartments and 6 small-scale group homes, with a total of 67 people living there.

At De Klinker, everyone is allowed and able to be themselves. Respect for one another and caringness are a matter of course. We are therefore the proud owner of the 'Roze Loper': the national quality mark for nursing homes and care homes that pay attention to sexual diversity, among both clients and employees.

Working at Amstelring means good employment conditions and great extras. What you will receive includes:

• Salary according to the CAO VVT: the aforementioned salary is based on full-time (36 hours) and is dependent on diploma and experience.
• On top of your salary: 8% holiday allowance, 8.33% end-of-year bonus, and a bonus for referring new colleagues
• Pension accrual via Amstelring at Pensioenfonds Zorg & Welzijn
• Discounts on, among other things, a new bicycle, your gym membership, day trips, concerts, and (theater) performances
• For young Amstelringers, there is Jong Amstelring: a friendly group of colleagues who regularly meet for professional, sporting, and social activities

As an Amstelringer at De Klinker, you also benefit from:

• Working in the heart of the bustling center of Amsterdam
• Good accessibility via public transport
• You are following a nursing study (MBO 3rd year completed or MMZ (MBO-4)).
• You have a certificate for performing nursing technical procedures and administering medication.
• You are authorized to perform ADL tasks.
