"Within Inforsa, there are truly plenty of opportunities to develop yourself. I recently completed my master's degree myself, and I was well supported in that. What I love about this team: you are never alone. Colleagues from all disciplines take you along, think along with you, and enjoy teaching you the ropes of the trade." - Linda, nurse
The role
Will you, as a Community Nurse or SPV, take on the challenge with our clients at Inforsa's Forensic Fact team? Together with your colleagues, you will shape multidisciplinary treatment and guidance, increasing the clients' self-reliance and reducing the risk of recidivism. We would love to talk to you!
What will you do?
As a Community Nurse or SPV (hereinafter case manager), you are broadly deployable. Together with your colleagues, you provide multidisciplinary treatment. At our organization, you will work with an adult target group that faces problems in various areas of life and exhibits boundary-crossing behavior resulting from severe addiction, psychiatric, and personality issues. There may also be a mild intellectual disability. In this role, you work together with various chain and network partners. You ensure connection and think outside the box. You do not give up and think in terms of possibilities to (permanently) motivate a client for treatment, thereby increasing self-reliance and reducing the risk of recidivism.
What you'll do
Your duties as a case manager are as follows:
- You start the day with a consultation in your multidisciplinary team, where, among others, a physician, psychologists, mental health educators, nurses, a job coach, and a psychiatrist are present;
- As a case manager, you coordinate the treatment under the supervision of the lead practitioner. Depending on your background, you offer, among other things, psychiatric and somatic care (such as somatic screening, medication administration), step in during crisis management, provide supportive treatment contact, psycho-education, or care coordination in the areas of housing, finances, and daily activities;
- You are responsible for your own caseload and participate in the treatment that you offer to the client together with your multidisciplinary team. You work on risk assessment, relapse prevention, signaling, and treatment plans;
- You are present at multidisciplinary treatment consultations, peer reviews, professional development sessions, or care coordination meetings with chain partners;
- You do not shrink from a crisis situation and work outreaching, which means you are out in the field frequently and know the client's living environment well.
What do you bring?
- Familiarity with the social services map is nice, but not a must.
The submission of a Certificate of Conduct (VOG) is part of the appointment procedure.

Working at Inforsa
Forensic Community Care (FAZ) is active in Amsterdam and in Central Netherlands with outreaching teams and outpatient clinics. We are looking for reinforcement for our team in Amsterdam-Oost (Domselaerstraat 126). Our FAZ consists in total of two Forensic Fact teams, one Forensic Outpatient Clinic, and two Forensic Youth teams.
The FAZ treats both clients referred by the probation service with a forensic title and clients within a voluntary framework with a forensic profile. The goal of the treatment is to reduce the risk of recidivism of delinquent behavior. We do this by treating addiction and/or psychiatric problems, improving social-societal factors, and increasing self-reliance.
The FAZ is a highly sought-after care provider that makes an indispensable contribution to the treatment and guidance of forensic and disruptive clients, the Chain Field Standard Life Course Approach, or the Top 600. For this, intensive cooperation takes place with municipal agencies, probation organizations, other mental health providers, and the Custodial Institutions Agency (DJI).
Hiring process
Do you see yourself cycling through Amsterdam already? Feel free to contact Jitske Straus (Operations Manager) via 06-48 34 89 04.
You can respond as long as the vacancy is online. Once we have welcomed a new colleague, the vacancy will be closed.
We prefer to look for new colleagues ourselves; we find that much more personal. Acquisition is therefore not appreciated.
