Community Nurse in Amsterdam

As a 'nursing coordinator', you will help build a neighborhood team that is in transition. From a "traditional" neighborhood team to a team that provides care and support through various streams, such as Wlz, VPT (Full Package at Home), and Zvw care. All aimed at ensuring the client can continue living in a familiar home environment for as long as possible. You are the point of contact for the team, but also for clients, caregivers, and other healthcare providers.

You lead the neighborhood team, coordinating the entire care process. From the intake, analyzing the home situation, and creating a customized care package (within budget), to the agreements with the neighborhood team. In doing so, you always coordinate closely with colleagues from the neighborhood service center and/or waiting list mediation: you are proactive when it comes to deploying Volledig Pakket Thuis as a supplementary product within Neighborhood Care.

In your role, you will be given the space and trust to shape your team in a way that works for both the clients and your colleagues. The foundation of the team is already there; you ensure that the new team is further shaped. For example, routes and the number of clients will be expanded as the team grows with colleagues. You ensure the team is ready for that. You lead and coach colleagues, ensuring a stable weekly schedule and varied work.

What else you do:

• You contribute to the further design of Wlz care at home, involving organizational issues in the field of VPT and MPT (Modular Package at Home)
• You maintain active contact with external partners, such as social services and GP practices
• You organize client meetings, peer reviews, and actively participate in working groups and projects

Full Package at Home is available when home care or neighborhood nursing is no longer sufficient, but someone is not yet ready to move to a nursing home. It is a flexible package, where we look with the client at what guidance they need. The package offers 24-hour care, guidance, and support, just like in a nursing home.
