Job Description

Are you looking for a rewarding job in elderly care as a Licensed Practical Nurse (Verzorgende IG)? Do you enjoy caring for seniors in need of support? Then this is your chance.

WelThuis is seeking certified Verzorgenden IG (Individual Health Care Nurses) to work an average of 24 to 36 hours per week. WelThuis provides care to the elderly at various locations in Zoetermeer. For this vacancy, we are hiring 4 Verzorgenden IG for the De Morgenster location.

As a Verzorgende IG, you provide daily support to residents who can no longer live independently. You assist with personal care such as getting up, washing, dressing, and using the toilet. You also help with meals and mobility, for example, transferring residents from bed to wheelchair.

You’ll perform nursing tasks such as administering medication, wound care, and giving injections. You monitor the health status of residents and report any changes to the care team. You are also responsible for creating and updating care plans.

You work both independently and as part of a team, playing a key role in the daily lives of residents. You stay in touch with family members and informal caregivers, contributing to a safe, warm, and respectful living environment where residents feel seen and well cared for.

Requirements:

We are looking for enthusiastic and dedicated Verzorgenden IG who enjoy working in elderly care. Do you have a heart for healthcare and love putting a smile on someone’s face? Then this role is for you.

• You speak and write Dutch well (at least level 2F/B1) and can provide a Certificate of Good Conduct (VOG) from Justis — the cost will be reimbursed. Working with the elderly gives you energy, and it shows.
• You are allowed to work in the Netherlands without a work permit or you hold a valid work permit. Flexibility is key, as you’re willing to work various shifts, including short, long, and occasional night shifts.
• You have an MBO-3 diploma as Verzorgende IG, an equivalent foreign diploma, or a certificate from CIBG confirming you are qualified to work as a Verzorgende IG. Relevant work experience or recent practical knowledge is a nice bonus.

Employment Conditions:

You’ll receive a permanent contract right away. Salary is in accordance with the CAO, under scale FWG 35, with a gross monthly salary between €2541.72 and €3337.94. On top of that, you’ll receive 8% holiday pay and a year-end bonus of 8.33%.
Attractive allowances apply for irregular hours. You’ll also receive travel reimbursement as per the CAO.
There are plenty of opportunities for personal development, with various options for training and professional growth.

We look forward to receiving your CV, motivation letter (in Dutch or English), and proof of qualification. Got your diploma abroad or not yet fluent in Dutch? No problem — you can still apply via the Avant Talent Group website to first take part in an intensive language training program. Speaking good Dutch is essential in healthcare, as you’ll be in daily contact with residents, colleagues, and family members. Of course, you may also choose to learn the language on your own, as long as you’re committed to reaching the required level.
