As a (district) nurse, you step into the living world of clients at home and serve as their fixed contact person. Together with the client, you look at the care needs and determine which support is required to help someone as well as possible. In doing so, you also look at whether you can utilize other disciplines or tools. As a district nurse at Amstelring, you therefore have a lot of freedom and independence.

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. Your work is varied and includes nursing technical procedures, palliative and terminal care, and support during rehabilitation. Increasingly, you also deal with social issues, which makes your work extra challenging.

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. The remaining time is spent on, among other things, administrative matters, consultation with colleagues, and conversations with new clients. If you work the afternoon and evening shift, you work from 3:00 PM to 11:00 PM.
