As an Elderly Care and Disability Support Worker, you provide care and guidance to aging clients with an intellectual disability at Ipse de Bruggen locations in Zuid-Holland. You will receive a permanent contract directly for 8 to 36 hours per week and will get the opportunity to develop yourself in elderly care, nursing technical procedures, and palliative care. A role in which personal attention, tranquility, and meaningful care are central.

As an Elderly Care and Disability Support Worker, you guide and care for aging clients with an intellectual disability. You build a bond of trust and learn how someone communicates, what someone needs, and which habits are important.
You support daily care, stimulate self-reliance where possible, and take over tasks when independent execution is no longer possible. In addition, nursing technical procedures may be part of your work.

Due to aging, the wishes and needs of clients change. You respond to this with attention, patience, and appropriate guidance. You offer structure, comfort, and a familiar environment in which clients feel safe. Even when clients reach the final stage of life, you remain valuable. You support them and their loved ones with warm, person-centered care and an eye for what someone needs at that moment. Sometimes that lies in good care, sometimes in a conversation, music, a walk, or simply your presence.

You can work at various Ipse de Bruggen locations, including Zwammerdam, Nieuwveen, and Waddinxveen. Together, we will look at which location and work environment best match your experience and interests.

Do you enjoy working with the elderly, but want more time and attention for the client? At Ipse de Bruggen, you combine care with guidance for aging people with an intellectual disability.

• You find it valuable to care for and guide the elderly.
• You can accept that development does not always mean that someone will be able to do more. Sometimes your work changes from stimulating to taking over.
• You are patient, provide personal attention, and can deal with physical decline and the final stage of life.
• Experience in elderly care can be a good match. We would love to teach you more about intellectual disabilities and ways of providing guidance.
