Our clients request nurses who take initiative, have courage, and are confident in crisis situations. Are you hospitable, driven, and enthusiastic and do you have an affinity for this target group? Then read on quickly!

The HIC is one of the crisis wards within the acute mental healthcare clinic, where treatment and guidance are central. The ward provides care to clients with severe mental disorders and behavioral problems who pose a danger to themselves or others. The goal is a short-term admission in a protected environment, where coercion and compulsion are prevented as much as possible.

Care on the HIC is provided by a multidisciplinary team of psychiatrists, ward doctors, clinical psychologists, nurse practitioners, doctors in training to become psychiatrists, nurses, caregivers, social workers, peer support workers, family peer support workers, and activity coordinators. The ward accommodates 23 clients, divided between an intensive care unit (for a maximum of three clients) and two high care wards.

As a nurse, you play an important role in the recovery of clients. Your main tasks are:

• coordinating and providing care and guidance to clients in different phases of admission, with attention to collaboration in the triad: client, loved one, and healthcare provider;
• ensuring a calm and safe atmosphere on the ward;
• reporting on the provision of care, so that a careful handover always takes place;
• participating in work meetings and contributing to the growth of the team;
• working irregular day, evening, night, and weekend shifts.
