You can participate free of charge in professional courses or e-learnings for personal development and growth. Furthermore, we regularly organize theme meetings where we exchange knowledge with one another about the care profession and elderly care.

Sometimes informal caregivers need a moment to catch their breath. In Charim's Respite House, we temporarily take over the care for their partner, father, mother, or other loved one. Not only with professional care, but especially with attention, warmth, and sincere hospitality.

Our Respite House is not a nursing home. It is a place where people stay temporarily in a homely hotel atmosphere. A place where guests feel welcome, where there is time for a chat, a good meal, and a pleasant daily program. And where informal caregivers can let go of their care for a moment with peace of mind.

For this special place, we are looking for a Care Assistant (Plus) who understands that good care and hospitality are inextricably linked. No two days are the same. Every guest has their own story, their own needs, and their own reason for staying with us temporarily.

As a Care Assistant (Plus), you are one of the faces of our Respite House. You welcome new guests, show them their way around, and ensure they quickly feel at home. You are simultaneously a caregiver, a hostess or host, and a wellbeing worker. You see what someone needs and ensure that a stay is not only safe and comfortable, but also pleasant and relaxing.

Your duties are varied

• You support with daily care and ADL

• you guide guests through activities and wellbeing;

• you provide a welcoming reception and a warm atmosphere;

• you serve breakfast and evening meals in the lounge and guide guests to the restaurant;

• you have an eye for personal wishes and needs:

• as a Care Assistant Plus, you administer medication and assist with nursing technical procedures.

The Respite House features ten comfortable guest apartments and is located on the fourth floor of De Engelenburgh in Veenendaal. You work in a small and committed team where collaboration is a matter of course. Precisely because the group of guests is constantly changing, you get to know many different people. That makes the work dynamic, personal, and surprising.

But perhaps the most beautiful thing is that you don't just mean something to the guest. By providing good care, you also relieve the informal caregiver at home. You literally give people the space to catch their breath for a moment.

You get energy from contact with people. You are hospitable, see what is needed, and understand that attention is often found in the small things. You enjoy connecting care, wellbeing, and hospitality, and you feel responsible for the total experience of our guests. Additionally:

• The team you will be working in is looking forward to your arrival. They would love to get to know you and are open to your new insights and ideas.
