Welzijn Vught

There are currently 13 volunteer village and neighborhood support workers who are supported in their role by Welzijn Vught. Everyone fulfills that role in a different way and that's what's so great about it. This way it continues to fit the wishes and possibilities of the village or neighborhood support worker and best meets the needs of the neighborhood. The common denominator? Everyone is full of enthusiasm to commit to his or her neighborhood, fulfills a signaling role, thinks constructively and is easy to approach for neighbors and organizations that work in your neighborhood. The connecting role leads to successes in your neighborhood. Think of fun activities, sharing concerns, tackling shared bottlenecks and many other initiatives. All volunteer neighborhood and village supporters meet about 6 times a year to coordinate, inspire and inform each other. Fun outings are also regularly planned to get to know each other and the various options in Vught. In addition, it is the time investment that suits you in your neighborhood, this is very different and always in consultation.

Become a Neighborhood Buddy!
Vught

Become a Neighborhood Buddy!

Once or weekly · 2 to 3 hours
Welzijn Vught

Some residents are not (yet) able to find their way in the neighborhood or would like to have more contacts. We are looking for a neighborhood buddy for these residents. As a neighborhood buddy, you support other residents in your neighborhood for a certain period of time. Think of showing the way in the neighborhood, helping to make contact with the neighbors or drinking a cup of coffee together. Neighborhood buddy Because it is not easy for everyone to make contact, we are starting the 'neighborhood buddies' project. Residence permit holders in particular have more difficulty 'participating' and making contacts because of language and different backgrounds. The aim is that a local resident helps another resident to participate in activities and to meet other local residents. The nature of the guidance depends on the request of a status holder. An everyday habit can mean a lot to someone else, such as going to the library, drinking a cup of coffee, taking a walk together. Do you want to be a neighborhood buddy? We are looking for volunteers who would like to help a neighbor. As a neighborhood buddy, you guide the inmate for a period of six months. You spend an average of half a day a week on this. You will receive guidance from Welzijn Vught.

Reinier van Arkel

Do you want to actively contribute to society with your experience? A meaningful role by actively changing healthcare in practice? Then come and strengthen the Family and Involved Persons Council. Reinier van Arkel treats approximately 14,000 unique clients annually. Approximately 1,700 employees and 300 volunteers work there. To offer clients the highest possible quality, we work based on the core values: committed, enthusiastic and reliable. Transition to network care To realize our ambitions, Reinier van Arkel has initiated a transition to network care. Network care focuses on the client's story and contributes to his recovery based on the belief that in addition to our high-quality care, collaboration with the personal network of family and loved ones around the client is also of great value. Family and Involved Persons Council (FBR) FBR members are informal caregivers and family experience experts. The members (volunteers) all have a family member or loved one with a mental illness. This binds and motivates them to work together as a close-knit team with respect for each other's capabilities, with each member taking on tasks that suit him or her. The FBR is an independent group that supports Reinier van Arkel's family and loved ones based on the belief that the client's recovery will be better with the help and guidance of family and loved ones. Family and loved ones must also 'help with the recovery', so to speak, and be given tools on how to support the client's recovery. Triadic thinking and working is important to maintain a dialogue with the client and the practitioner on the basis of equality. The FBR can and may provide the Board of Directors and management with solicited and unsolicited advice with the aim of maintaining the quality of care for their family member and loved one. In addition, the FBR within Reinier van Arkel maintains contact with healthcare professionals, among others. The FBR also has external contact with agencies such as health insurers, other mental health organizations and the Chamber of Family and Friends Councils (MIND). Writing newsletters and policy documents, serving on the complaints committee and leading meetings are also part of the duties. We are looking for new members. You: • are involved/have an affinity with mental health care or have a family member or loved one under treatment; • can work in a team and deal with different ideas/opinions; • are socially oriented and can distance themselves from their personal situation/interests with the aim of promoting family interests in general; • you can act independently and dare to speak out; • are flexibly available on working days. What we can offer you: • actively contribute to better care for your family or loved one under treatment; • working with passion in a capable, inspiring team; • a meaningful role by actively changing healthcare in practice; • following relevant training and courses; • expense reimbursement (no salary); • professional support and additional support from a volunteer; • an induction period is possible; • to form an impression you can participate in a meeting. Learn more and apply We are happy to answer requests for additional information or questions in a no-obligation introductory meeting. Call or send a message. We would like to hear from you!
