As a nurse, do you want to contribute to the recovery of clients undergoing clinical admission due to addiction issues? Come work at the TOPGGz department of Jellinek Amsterdam.

At Clinical Treatment Amsterdam (KBA), you will work with clients who are admitted for six weeks for intensive treatment. Together with colleagues within a multidisciplinary team, you provide professional nursing and psychosocial care, focused on recovery, insight, and behavioral change.

What will you do?
As a nurse, you have a versatile role within a dedicated and multidisciplinary team including group leaders, psychologists, psychiatrists, and physicians, among others.

Your duties include

• monitoring group dynamics and creating a safe treatment environment;
• delivering treatment modules to groups of a maximum of 10 clients, together with psychologists or independently;
• acting as a personal counselor and coordinating care together with the primary and the lead practitioner;
• maintaining contact with physicians regarding clients with somatic issues, triaging, and discussing necessary care;
• performing medical services, where you are the link between clients with a medical need and the physician;
• participating in team meetings and contributing to quality development.
• After admission, clients typically flow through to day treatment, either at this location or another Jellinek branch, where they follow an additional six weeks of treatment. You play an important role in this transition and, together with colleagues, ensure continuity in the treatment process.

What your day looks like
Working at the KBA means working in a 24-hour clinic where clients stay for six weeks for intensive treatment. It is an open ward, where clients are admitted voluntarily and the focus lies on recovery and collaboration. In total, thirty clients are admitted, divided into three treatment groups of approximately ten people.

The basis of the treatment program is cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT). In the first two weeks, clients go through a commitment phase, a starting phase in which much attention is paid to settling in well at the clinic and investigating which treatment route best aligns with their situation. In the following weeks, in addition to the morning program, clients follow treatment modules in the afternoons that match that route. The three treatment routes each place an emphasis within the CBT treatment: value-oriented, personality issues, or social recovery.

During a day shift, for example, you might join the breakfast or the daily opening, facilitate a treatment module together with a psychologist, or support clients with daily activities. In between, you are present on the ward as a point of contact for clients, answer questions, and supervise medication administration (if you have followed the appropriate training). Additionally, you participate in meetings such as the handover and the multidisciplinary consultation (MDO), where you discuss progress together with the team.

In the evening, you are often more present with the group: you monitor peace, structure, and safety, and provide support during practical or social moments.

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

• Day shift: 07:30 - 16:00
• Evening shift: 14:30 - 23:00
• Night shift: 22:45 - 07:45

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