The role

As a nurse in High Intensity Secure Care (HIBZ), you want to maintain contact with the client as much as possible and apply as little coercion as possible. You do this together with your colleagues from the multidisciplinary team.

What you'll do

You will commit yourself to our clients who are in crisis and whose treatment in other locations has stalled due to disruptive behavior. Together with the team, you ensure that they achieve their admission goals. As a professional, you know what is expected of you in the guidance of individual clients and groups. We provide guidance according to the FHIC methodology, which aims to apply as little coercion as possible and to maintain as much contact with the client as possible.

We work towards an open recovery climate where the client feels supported. At moments when tension increases in a client, you recognize this and know how best to respond, whom you can involve, or with whom you can discuss it. In contact with the client, you are empathetic but you also set boundaries, and you know how to de-escalate if necessary. Furthermore, you contribute to a safe therapeutic climate.

You do not do all of this alone. There is good cooperation between you and the members of the multidisciplinary team, which consists of group leaders, nurses, occupational therapists, doctors, and psychiatrists.

Care continues day and night. We work in irregular shifts to guarantee 24/7 care:

How you'll work

  • Day shift: 07:00 - 15:00
  • Mid-shift: 10:00 - 18:00
  • Evening shift: 14:30 - 22:30
  • Night shift: 22:15 - 07:00

By distributing these shifts fairly, we ensure continuity and quality, and the team can always rely on one another.

What do you bring?

The consultation of a Certificate of Conduct (VOG) is part of the application procedure.

Working at Inforsa
Inforsa is the expert in the field of very severe (forensic) psychiatric problems, often in combination with addiction. Additionally, there is a matter of disruption and/or criminal behavior. Every client is unique. Our starting point is: what can someone *do*? At Inforsa, we work together on a perspective for the client, his/her loved ones, and society. That perspective often begins with small steps. Dignity and safety come first. We dare to look further where necessary. That requires courage and trust in the client, loved ones, and in each other's expertise. Together we work on dignified and safe care.

Want to know more about this vacancy?
For more information, you can contact our recruiter Elsbeth van Damme. She is ready to tell you more and answer any questions.

You can respond as long as the vacancy is online. Once we have been able to welcome a new colleague, the vacancy will be closed.

We prefer to look for new colleagues ourselves; we find that much more personal. Therefore, recruitment agencies are not appreciated.
