Do you want to apply your expertise in a place where collaboration leads to innovation? Where you work together with colleagues on meaningful recovery and help build the care of tomorrow? At Novare, you will become part of an ambitious movement that is already delivering visible results.

We are looking for a physician assistant who helps our clients to continue as independently as possible after illness or surgery.

You will work 24 hours per week at Novare in Assen, during the day on weekdays. In consultation, we will determine where you work and when you start.

To start, you will work in a unique collaboration in which you truly help clients on their way home - that provides satisfaction. You do this together with colleagues who are involved and ready to support one another. At Novare, we strive for long-term collaboration and offer:

• A salary in accordance with the VVT collective labor agreement, between € 5,214.66 and € 7,263.94 gross per month based on 36 hours (FWG 65).
• A contract for 24 hours per week at Interzorg and for an indefinite period (if that is your wish).
• A good work-life balance and a lot of independence and freedom in your work (scheduling).
• Room to further develop yourself, for example through education, training, and with opportunities for career growth.
• Attention to your health and balance, including workshops, preventive medical examinations, support for informal caregivers, and the possibility to utilize a vitality coach.
• Assistance from our digital coaches.
• Travel allowance, holiday allowance (8%), end-of-year bonus (8.33%), and pension accrual at Pensioenfonds Zorg & Welzijn.
• Extras such as: purchasing a bicycle, laptop, smartphone, or sports subscription at a discount, and saving leave for, for example, a long trip or to stop working earlier.

Novare originated from the collaboration between Interzorg Noord-Nederland, Icare, and the Wilhelmina Ziekenhuis Assen. We bundle the expertise of hospital and rehabilitation care around one common goal: warm, expert, and future-proof recovery and rehabilitation care. The right care in the right place, at home if possible.

As a physician assistant, you become part of an ambitious movement that delivers visible results. Together with colleagues, you look beyond the boundaries of your own discipline or organization. You work on recovery that aligns with what is truly important to rehabilitation patients in their daily lives.

Our collaboration has since led to integrated care pathways and a more efficient use of expertise and capacity. The results show what we can achieve together:

• An average client satisfaction of 8.2;
• An average length of stay of approximately 24 days within geriatric rehabilitation care, compared to a national benchmark of about 35 days.
• A chain collaboration where we can absorb the growth in care demand through our collaboration and organization.
• more than 11,000 saved bed days within the joint transformation program.
• Excellent preparation for further education, such as specialist in geriatric medicine, general practitioner, rehabilitation medicine, or another medical specialization.
• The opportunity to actively help build towards the ambition of achieving the Topcare designation in 2029.
