We are looking for someone who
We are not looking for a specific diploma or healthcare background.
We are primarily looking for someone who

• is open to other people
• wants to make a difference for someone else
You don't have to be perfect.
You don't have to be present constantly or at fixed times.
You don't always have to have the answer. A little curiosity, a warm heart, and a sense of responsibility are much more important.
We are not just looking for someone to fill the apartment. Above all, we want to discover if the Bezaan suits you, and you suit the Bezaan.

Something more about your co-residents
Eight people with an intellectual disability and/or autism and two residents live in De Bezaan. The residents live very independently and structure their own days. They do supported work, attend the day center, run their own businesses, or participate in leisure activities. Each resident receives tailored support: some more, others less. Most residents are in their thirties.
These things we like to do togther
The Bezaners form a close-knit group, respecting each other's privacy. They enjoy having fun. They complement one another and help each other whenever possible. Spontaneous chats often break out in the hallway or in the self-made lounge in the garden.
There is a monthly group activity that is chosen and organized in consultation with the residents. The program often includes dinners, board games, swimming, cinema, bowling, visits to the fair or Christmas market, and so on. There is a quarterly residents' meeting where we discuss practical matters and activities.
