The role

What you'll do

As a nurse specialist, you will work independently as a lead practitioner and play an important role in the diagnostics, coordination, and execution of various treatment interventions for patients with complex obsessive-compulsive disorders. In addition to (treatment-resistant) obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), your field of work also includes other obsessive-compulsive spectrum disorders, such as Body Dysmorphic Disorder (BDD).

Part of your role consists of providing specialist lead treatment to patients with treatment-resistant OCD who are indicated for deep brain stimulation (DBS), an innovative intervention in the field of neuromodulation. Within our energetic team, you are co-responsible for the coordination and guidance surrounding the setting up of the DBS system, monitoring its effectiveness, and providing annual check-ups.

Your package of tasks also includes conducting intakes and performing pharmacotherapy, whether or not combined with lifestyle coaching. All of this within the framework of a nurse specialist. You have an active role in multidisciplinary consultations such as intake/treatment consultations, peer supervision, and meetings for professional development. You contribute independently to the development of protocols and treatment methods (evidence-based practice).
