PG, somatics, GRZ, CVA rehabilitation, first-line, first-line residential care, hospice, Huntington outpatient clinic, Parkinson rehabilitation... the possibilities for you are almost endless! With 23 locations, there is always a location, department, or first-line setting at Amstelring where you, as an occupational therapist, will feel completely at home. And where you will have challenging work and can develop yourself.

• We work extensively with healthcare technology and special aids. We also offer training in this area, so that your knowledge and experience in the field of healthcare technology remains up to date.
• Within the professional group, every occupational therapist has their own expertise: something that you know a lot about in addition to your occupational therapy knowledge and something you enjoy working with. Think, for example, of recruitment and selection, quality, or business operations.
• We attach great value to craftsmanship and professional autonomy, so you have a lot of responsibility but also a lot of freedom. In addition, your knowledge, ideas, and input are highly valued!
• Our focus lies on contributing to future-oriented working, because healthcare is changing. And you can actively contribute to this!

Occupational therapists and other practitioners are an essential part of what living with care will look like in the future. You will also contribute to this. Because within Amstelring, we are going to treat differently, smarter, and more preventatively. With an eye for expertise, innovation, and digital possibilities. Where previously the focus was on 'care & treatment', it is now increasingly from 'living & well-being'. In other words: how can you, as a practitioner, deal as effectively as possible with the greater demand for care that awaits us?

The more than 350 physicians and practitioners of 'Treatment & advice' offer a wide range of medical, paramedical, and psychosocial services. From various disciplines, we provide customized care, both intramural and extramural. We always work within a dynamic and multidisciplinary team, where we work in regions and it feels small-scale.

The occupational therapy professional group consists of approximately 45 occupational therapists, divided across 4 regions. As a professional group, we meet 4 times a year and discuss a specific topic during every meeting. Important developments are discussed by the chairs of the various professional groups with management: this way, everyone has influence on the organization, and the connection between the different disciplines and locations is also strengthened.

Within the professional group, there is an open working atmosphere and we support each other where necessary. Outside of work, we sometimes have drinks together and you can participate in Amstelring sports tournaments.

As an occupational therapist, you can work well with different colleagues and departments. Whether you already have a lot of work experience or have just finished school and want to grow significantly in the profession: you are very welcome! Additionally:

A great diversity of target groups and locations, with much freedom and opportunities to develop yourself: something for you? Then we would love to hear from you!

As an occupational therapist, you are responsible for drafting, completing, and implementing the occupational therapy treatment plan. You investigate, treat, and provide advice and information regarding adaptations, aids, and provisions. You do all of this in close consultation with other disciplines, such as care colleagues, physiotherapy, and physicians.

As an occupational therapist, you can make that very difference that contributes to the quality of life of residents and clients. Together with the resident or client, you look at how self-reliance can be optimized and what is required for that. Additionally, you advise (informal) caregivers regarding well-being, and how we can keep this as high as possible for residents / clients.
