Physiotherapist (Locum)

As a physiotherapist, do you want to make a difference in the recovery of rehabilitation patients? At nursing home and rehabilitation center Vreugdehof in Buitenveldert, you will work in the dynamic GRZ department. Here, you help clients step by step back to their own living environment.

As a physiotherapist at Vreugdehof, you will work primarily in the Geriatric Rehabilitation Care (GRZ) department. Here, you will focus entirely on the recovery and self-reliance of clients staying with us temporarily. You will accurately map out physical capabilities and limitations, establish a goal-oriented treatment plan, and intensively guide the rehabilitant during the recovery process. You will work on recovery caused by a wide variety of medical conditions.

You are not alone in this. Together with a close-knit multidisciplinary team including doctors, occupational therapists, nurses, and the rehabilitant's family, you will coordinate care on a daily basis. Because the throughput in GRZ is high and every client has their own pace of recovery, you will easily switch between different care needs and treatment goals.

Nursing home and rehabilitation center Vreugdehof can be found on the outskirts of Amsterdam Buitenveldert. Drop in and experience the cozy, warm atmosphere! Here you will find residents, clients, and rehabilitants with dementia, a chronic physical illness, or a disability. About 160 colleagues work here across 9 care teams.

At Vreugdehof, there is a great deal of social involvement and attention to what is happening in society. Additionally, we find diversity very important: everyone can be themselves at Vreugdehof; respect for one another and freedom are taken for granted. We are therefore the proud holder of the 'Roze Loper' certificate: the quality mark for nursing and care homes that pay attention to sexual diversity, among both clients and employees.

As a physiotherapist, you are part of the physiotherapy department. A group of approximately 48 colleagues working within the various locations of Amstelring. The department is organized into regions, and we hold regular consultations with one another.

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

• Pension accrual via Amstelring at Pensioenfonds Zorg & Welzijn

• For young Amstelringers, there is Jong Amstelring: a convivial group of colleagues who regularly meet up for professional, sporting, and social activities

As an Amstelringer at Vreugdehof, you also benefit from:

• Free parking behind a barrier and, in some cases, also the possibility of a parking permit for a monthly fee.

We are looking for a flexible and entrepreneurial colleague. Someone who knows how to roll up their sleeves and can quickly find their way in a new working environment.
