Residential Assistant in the Netherlands

As a residential assistant, you are significant to the residents in Spathodea in Zeist.

In doing so, you look not only at what someone needs, but also at what someone can still do themselves. Together, we ensure that residents feel seen, safe, and at home. At Charim, we live, work, and exist together. Curious about the valuable work in elderly care? Then we would love to meet you.

Spathodea offers a home to 83 residents, both single and living together. They live independently with care nearby. There is plenty of space for meeting in the restaurant De Tamarinde, where activities, church services, and communal meals take place. The Spathodea team consists of committed colleagues. You work together towards the same goals; every colleague contributes in his or her own way and is extremely important in this process. You work together on appropriate support in an atmosphere of trust, expertise, and humanity.

You do not need a care diploma for this position. Experience in care is also not required. Perhaps you already care for someone at home or enjoy helping others; if so, that is a beautiful foundation. You will receive 5 days of training from us so that you can start well-prepared. After that, you can independently provide support to residents with light care needs. What we find important:

• you speak and write Dutch

• you can easily reach the locations in Zeist

• you are flexibly deployable, both during the week and on weekends

• you are available for day, evening, holiday, and public holiday shifts

For this position, we are looking for colleagues who are deployable long-term and broadly within the schedule. Because of this, this position is less suitable in combination with a full-time education or limited availability.

At Charim, we see you and your dedication to your fellow human being. We offer you a good place where you can be of significance to others. The Christian faith is our foundation. You do work of value with us. We have confidence in your professional competence. We see what you are good at, what makes you happy, and where you want to grow. Together, we discover how *you* can be of value in your work. We support you so that you can flourish. We promise to do everything possible so that you can apply your talents at Charim.

With us, you know you are secure, known, and appreciated. Our dream? Everyone having a valuable and meaningful life. Meaning arises in the relationship we have with residents and with each other. With residents, their loved ones, colleagues, and our care partners. Together, we ensure that our support and care align with what is meaningful to residents. You can grow with us as a professional and as a person. Charim has a job that aligns with your talents, ambitions, professional knowledge, and life stage. A place that suits you!

• The residents living in Spathodea and the team you will be joining are looking forward to your arrival. They would love to get to know you and are open to your new insights and ideas.
