volunteer who wants to accompany a visit

Interest, listen, empathize and support.

Words that indicate what we are looking for in a volunteer and that can ensure that the resident feels safe and secure with you.

This is me:  

Who o who likes to be with me; Anouk to go with

hospital visits (6 times a year).

Sometimes we go to the dentist and sometimes to a specialist.

We then take the regional taxi. I'm in a wheelchair and would

very nice if there is someone who wants to accompany me.

This is you:  

You find it important that someone is in control and can independently visit specialists and are prepared to help where Anouk indicates that she needs help. This can be when guiding the wheelchair or helping to remember information. You are known or would like to know more or people with NAH (non-congenital brain injury) in order to understand what you can do for Anouk. Before we start, it is nice to first have an introduction and get to know each other.

Furthermore you are:

• Be patient and take time to understand and understand someone.
• Empathetic to situation and circumstances and you want to invest energy in building a relationship of trust.
• Clear and predictable, making you reliable but also firm.
• Respectful and you can handle (confidential) information discreetly
• Available for a longer period and approximately 6 times a year.

This is what we offer:  

a nice volunteer place with enthusiastic people!

• An end-of-year gift
• Insurance for third-party liability and accidents
• Travel allowance
• Possibility of training and information meetings
• Committed contribution to the clients
• Plenty of appreciation and a priceless experience

Motivation is an important factor to sign up as a volunteer; motivation to build up a contact slowly and motivation to enter into this contact for a long time.

We want to support this from the 's Heeren Loo organization. There is an introductory meeting to see whether it clicks from both sides and to clarify what is being asked and what can be offered. A period to run a 'trial' and receive explanations and support from supervisors who are closely involved.

There is no consideration for voluntary work in the form of material remuneration or payment for the work. It is not a position of a professional employee and you do not have to take that responsibility as a volunteer. However, the volunteer is a highly valued strength within the team and will also be heard and appreciated.

Enthusiastic?
