Apprentice caregiver (plus) elderly care (BBL track) in the Netherlands

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 Rozenholm, you also benefit from:

• A parking permit for the blue zone
• Good accessibility by bus: the stop is a 6-minute walk away
• Our annual sporty and social six-event competition: together we compete against the colleagues from Het Hoge Heem

In 1 year, you will be trained as a caregiver in (elderly) care. If you want to continue for the "plus" part, that is possible with a 10-week follow-up course. As a caregiver (plus), you guide and support residents with their daily care. Together with your colleagues, you ensure that residents receive the attention and care they deserve. You provide support with daily personal care. Once you have obtained your caregiver diploma, you can progress to "plus" and will be authorized to administer medication and perform light medical procedures. Communication and consultation are also part of the job, which you do with colleagues such as physiotherapists, dietitians, and occupational therapists.

During your training, you will go to Nova College in Hoofddorp 1 day per week and work 3 days per week. This means you can directly apply what you learn at school in practice.

On-site, you will start working in one of the care teams. You will work day and evening shifts here and will be scheduled every other weekend. After obtaining your diploma, you can continue working at Amstelring. We will then look together at which location and department suit you best. From that point on, there are plenty of opportunities to grow within the organization.

In the heart of Aalsmeer, you will find Rozenholm. A small and atmospheric nursing home where, with 60 colleagues, we provide care to residents with physical complaints and/or dementia. In everything, you notice that Rozenholm is part of the village. Because many residents and colleagues know each other, involvement is high and we look out for one another. The atmosphere in the teams is good, and as a new colleague, you are warmly welcomed. In your work, you can also count on the many family members and volunteers who feel very involved.

Rozenholm is located by the water; on summer days, you can sit here wonderfully and enjoy, for example, the boats passing by.
