Summary

The Veldhuis location of KleinGeluk is a nursing home where elderly people live independently but are dependent on intensive care.

Detailed description

The Veldhuis location houses elderly people, many of whom require physical care. They have their own apartments and prefer to maintain their independence. Residents socialize in the community room over breakfast, coffee, or during the activities offered.


Some residents prefer individual contact and enjoy being outdoors. Because they are wheelchair-bound, I'm looking for "walking buddies." As a walking buddy, you're flexible with your schedule and can make your own arrangements with the resident.


At KleinGeluk, we never miss an opportunity to promote the well-being of seniors. As a volunteer, you're invaluable to us! Sharing small moments of happiness together makes people feel valued. That's what we do it for.

We offer guidance and, if needed, you can participate in workshops to develop new skills. You can start working for just a few hours a month.


Good to know: as a volunteer you are insured (third party liability and accident insurance) and before starting work we request a Certificate of Good Conduct (VOG).

Interested or want to have a cup of coffee with one of our volunteer and welfare coordinators? Call our helpline at 0800-0604 or email coordinatorenvrijwilligers@kleingeluk.nl
