The role

Do you enjoy working at night and maintaining oversight in situations where calm and safety are essential? As a night nurse at Mentrum, you will work within an emergency clinic for psychiatry in Amsterdam. Here, you will ensure continuity of care for clients with severe psychiatric disorders.

Do you want to get a better sense of the impact of this work? De Rugzak van Amsterdam - a 2025 initiative from Mentrum in collaboration with Patta Academy - gives you a unique insight into the personal stories of our patients. Watch the campaign video for a first impression, listen to the podcasts and read the client stories. This way, you will gain valuable insight into the people for whom you can make a difference and the place where you will come to work.

What you'll do

What will you do?
During your night shifts, you are responsible for a safe and calm night on the ward within clinical mental healthcare. You observe clients, perform checks, and ensure a good handover to the morning shift.

  • Monitoring calm, safety, and structure during the night
  • Conducting rounds and performing checks on clients
  • Identifying changes in the behavior or situation of clients
  • Preparing medication for the next day
  • Providing a careful handover for morning shift colleagues

How you'll work

This concerns employment of 8-25 hours per week during night shifts. Would you like to work more hours? That is certainly possible; this can be supplemented with other shifts within the organization.

During the night, you monitor the calm and safety on the ward. You identify changes in clients, provide supervision, and ensure a stable environment within clinical mental healthcare. With your clinical eye and calm presence, you ensure that the night proceeds safely and in a structured manner.

You work independently during the night shift, but you are part of a dedicated team within the Mentrum Clinic Eerste Constantijn Huygensstraat. This clinic is an emergency clinic within mental healthcare, where clients are temporarily admitted for intensive treatment and acute psychiatric care.

With us, you get the space to work independently at night, while remaining part of a dedicated clinical team.
