Do you want to work as an MBO mental health nurse at Arkin? In mental healthcare (GGZ), you make a difference every day for people who have temporarily lost control of their lives. As an MBO nurse in psychiatry, you work within Arkin's clinics and combine professional knowledge with sincere attention for the person behind the diagnosis.

You work together with a multidisciplinary team of psychiatrists, psychologists, therapists, social educators, social workers, and nurses. Within the clinic, no two days are the same: you observe, reason clinically, hold conversations with clients, and act quickly when situations demand it.

What will you be doing?
You guide and support clients during their treatment and recovery. You monitor safety on the ward and serve as an important point of contact.

• Observing behavior and clinical reasoning
• Conducting motivational interviews with clients
• Guiding daily activities on the ward
• Acting professionally during tensions or crisis situations
• Collaborating within psychiatric care

Within Arkin, MBO nurses start in the clinic and can later grow into, for example, FACT teams within mental healthcare. Do you have little experience in psychiatry or mental healthcare? Then you can start via a mental healthcare traineeship, which lasts 15 months and allows you to get to know mental healthcare within two different specialisms.

Working with us
Arkin is the metropolitan mental healthcare provider with 11 specialisms. Together we are the expert in the field of psychiatry and addiction care. Together, we advocate for the mental resilience of our clients
