Community Nurse (Verzorgende IG) in Amsterdam

Live as you wish. That is what we find important at Amstelring Wijkzorg. As a healthcare provider IG (verzorgende IG), you step into the living world of our clients at home. Together with the client, you look at the care needs and discuss where support is required to help the client as well as possible. Often these are care-related questions, but we are seeing more and more social questions as well. You are the contact person and look at where you can possibly deploy other disciplines and/or tools. This variety makes your work as a healthcare provider IG challenging.

As a healthcare assistant (verzorgende IG), you visit clients in their own homes and their own living environments. Together with the client, you look at the care needs and decide which support is necessary to help someone as well as possible. In doing so, you also look at whether you can utilize other disciplines or tools. Increasingly, you will also deal with social issues, which makes your work extra challenging. In your work at Amstelring Wijkzorg, you therefore have a lot of freedom, independence, and variety.

Your workday begins at the office in Hoofddorp, where you drink coffee with your colleagues and briefly discuss the clients. Afterwards, you head out independently, by bicycle, on foot, or by car. Behind every front door lies a different story; based on the care plan, you determine what is needed for your client.

After your rounds visiting clients, you return to the office to consult with your colleagues. In addition to direct care for clients, you also have other tasks. Think of preparing an indication, conducting an intake interview, supervising students, consulting with GPs, completing reports, or taking on EVV tasks. Every colleague has their own team task that matches their interests and skills. You can also regularly participate in meetings organized by Amstelring.

If you work a morning shift, you work from 7:00 AM to 3:00 PM: you are reachable from 7:00 AM, and you start with your first client at 7:30 AM. Usually, you finish your round of clients between 1:00 PM and 2:00 PM. After that, you take on other tasks, such as administrative matters, consultation with colleagues, and conversations with new clients. If you work afternoons and evenings, you work from 3:00 PM to 11:00 PM.
