In 1 year, you will be trained to become 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 physiotherapy, 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. Therefore, what you learn at school can be applied directly 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.
