Minimum 16 hours per week | Close to home | Person-centered elderly care

Do you want to work in elderly care and truly make a difference for our residents? As a care assistant at the De Westerweeren residential care location in Bergambacht, you ensure that residents can start and end their day pleasantly. With your attention, patience, and warm smile, you make a difference every day. You will work in a close-knit and self-organizing team, where colleagues help each other and where there is room to contribute ideas regarding care.

As a care assistant, you support residents with dementia or physical care needs with their daily care.

You support with:

• Getting up and going to bed

• Administering medication and performing simple nursing technical tasks

• Washing, dressing and undressing

• Personal care and eating and drinking.

You work according to the resident's personal care plan.

But your work goes beyond just care. You also make time for a conversation, a joke, or an activity. Together with colleagues, informal caregivers, and volunteers, you ensure a safe and pleasant living environment.

In this way, you help residents to continue their lives as much as possible in their own way: familiar, dignified, and with personal attention.
