Buddy

De Zijlen, Locatie Ilmarinen • job opening nr. 13752

Interesting about this job

The Zijlen has not only professionals but also over five hundred volunteers. They play a very important role in the lives of people with mental disabilities. Volunteers have all the attention and time they need for the resident. Thanks to them, they gain new experiences. This expands the world of both client and volunteer.

Job tasks and duties

We support people with intellectual disabilities to live their lives. To be able to be who you are in a familiar environment is what we stand for. We are curious about the cliënts' wishes and make a plan together on how we support that. By helping, doing, encouraging, showing new things, but also accepting when things don't work out. We always work together with the clients and the people who are important to them. In this way, we contribute to a pleasant living and housing environment and a meaningful fulfillment of the day.

We are looking for several buddies.
