Care Assistant (Plus) - PG D-ZEP - Den Ooiman - Doetinchem - Living with Care

In care at De Boomgaard, no two days are the same. Clients sometimes react unpredictably or exhibit misunderstood behavior. Yet, it is precisely in that dynamism that you seek calm. With your sincere attention and sharp observations, you help clients to quickly feel at ease again. Are you looking for a place in Doetinchem where you are truly meaningful and make a difference together with a close-knit team?

At De Boomgaard, you bring calm into and around the living room. Together with your colleagues, you start the day. You distribute the tasks and support clients with daily care (ADL). You also serve meals and ensure a relaxed atmosphere. Our clients deal with complex care needs. You continuously observe how someone is doing. Do you notice changes in behavior or health? Then, if necessary, you perform checks, such as measuring blood pressure, or you ask a colleague for help.

Clients stay at De Boomgaard for a short period, varying from an average of one to six months. They require temporary intensive guidance to become stable again. Sometimes you consciously observe the situation from a distance. In this way, you stimulate the client's independence and self-management. In between, you take time together with your team to review your work. Together, you discuss what is going well or what could be done differently or better.

You primarily work on the De Boomgaard department, but you are also flexible and willing to step in at our other departments or in the surrounding neighborhood teams.

You will be working on the De Boomgaard department. This department is located at our well-known Den Ooiman location in Doetinchem. De Boomgaard has 12 beds and 1 room for observation/detention (IBS). Our clients often arrive in an acute phase. That makes the work varied and sometimes also tough.

That is precisely why collegial support is our top priority. We listen to each other and build each other up.

You are stress-resistant and stand firm in your shoes. You can easily conduct a conversation and remain critical of your own actions. You also dare to ask for help when a situation becomes tense. You know how to maintain calm during misunderstood behavior. You work meticulously according to the treatment plans.

Furthermore:

• Do you possess a diploma in Care and Welfare Assistant (level 2) or Care Assistant Plus;
• Do you already have the 'Plus qualification', or would you like to obtain this with us;
• Do you have an affinity with psychogeriatrics, complex care needs, and misunderstood behavior;
• Are you willing to work irregular hours according to varying schedules;
• Can you provide a Certificate of Good Conduct (VOG) upon employment.
