Disability Care Support Worker for the Elderly. Here, you truly make a difference!

Not everyone can do this. You can.
Our elderly deserve your attention, calm, and strength.
You are needed as a disability care support worker.

We are elderly people between the ages of 60 and 98 with intellectual and sometimes also physical disabilities. Some of us have dementia or other care needs, which means we cannot always clearly indicate what we feel or need. This can sometimes lead to behavioral challenges. We live in an atmospheric and monumental building in the city center of Delft. Our mobility varies. Some walk independently, while others use a walker or a wheelchair.

We love peace, warmth, and attention. We love small talk, humor, and conviviality. We appreciate it when you look at what we can do ourselves, and where you guide us or take over care. The team around us consists of a mix of young talent and experienced colleagues. Their humor, patience, and involvement make this our home.

Meet us.

As a disability care support worker, you provide us with support that matches our care needs and abilities. You help us with daily guidance, ADL support, and personal care. Some residents need support in maintaining skills, others with declining mobility or with the consequences of dementia. Thanks to the variety in care needs, no workday is the same.

You guide us according to the care plan, report carefully, and coordinate ongoing matters with colleagues. You ensure that we can attend our day activities and provide support in nursing and care where necessary. As a personal guide, you are the first point of contact for a number of residents and maintain contact with family, behavioral specialists, and the manager so that the care plan remains up to date.

For mbo4 professionals, your role also includes coordinating care, coaching colleagues, and monitoring quality on the work floor. Your work is versatile and meaningful. You are needed to give us a safe, pleasant, and dignified old age.

• do you feel at home in the combination of care and guidance and do you enjoy that your work is varied
• do you ensure a warm and structured atmosphere in which we feel safe
• do you enjoy teamwork but can also work independently and bear responsibility
• are you willing to work day, evening, and weekend shifts.

• A gross monthly salary of € 2,384 - € 3,980 based on 36 hours, according to the CAO Disability Care (FWG 25/30/35/40)
