Do you want to be there for the fellow man in his or her last phase of life?

You are looking for a place where you can volunteer for a fellow human being.

You want to think along, engage in conversation, offer a listening ear and a helping hand.

The starting point is that we are there for people.

The work at NAbij depends entirely on the question and the situation someone is in, but also on what you enjoy doing. You are an important support for someone who needs it, but also a colleague to make a difference with us.

For example, we can offer support in guiding you home after discharge from the hospital. A weekly or even daily visit, going to the doctor or examination, thinking about the situation, but also cooking together, going out, etc.

Further in the disease process we can be there during the day and, if necessary, also at night.

After following our basic training you will be deployed in consultation, so that it also fits in with your other activities.
