Support for the elderly in Amsterdam
Amsterdam is a beautiful city to live in. With districts such as Amsterdam South, East, West, North, and the Jordaan, every neighborhood has its own character. Many older people have lived here for decades and feel strongly connected to their surroundings.
At the same time, living independently in a big city can also bring challenges. Family sometimes lives further away, neighbors change more frequently, and the daily routine can gradually shrink.
Gea Thuis supports elderly people in Amsterdam who are in need of:
- More company
- Structure in the day
- Relief for informal caregivers
- Practical help in daily life
- A familiar and trusted face
We believe that attention is not a luxury, but a basic need.
Wat doet Gea Thuis in Amsterdam?
Gea Thuis works with regular companions. That means: no changing faces, but one trusted supporter who really gets to know someone.
Our support in Amsterdam consists of:
1. Company and attention
Een gesprek aan de keukentafel. Samen een kop koffie drinken. Wandelen in het Vondelpark of even naar de markt. Kleine momenten maken een groot verschil.
2. Structure and rhythm
Voor veel ouderen geeft een vast bezoekmoment rust. Iemand die helpt bij het plannen van de week, afspraken overziet of simpelweg zorgt dat de dag niet in stilte voorbijgaat.
3. Practical support
Lichte hulp in huis, samen boodschappen doen of begeleiding bij een afspraak in het ziekenhuis. Geen medische zorg, maar wél betrokken ondersteuning.
4. Ontlasting van mantelzorgers
Children or partners often do a lot already. Gea Thuis can be a valuable addition, giving caregivers a moment to breathe without feeling guilty.

Personal attention in a metropolis
Amsterdam is groot. Maar ondersteuning moet persoonlijk blijven.
Wij zien vaak dat ouderen in een stad als Amsterdam veel prikkels ervaren, maar weinig echte aandacht. Gea Thuis brengt rust, nabijheid en menselijk contact terug in het dagelijks leven.
That is what we stand for.
