*(based on 36 hours, FWG 45, Cao-Ziekenhuizen).
The role
As a medical pedagogical care provider, you look beyond the illness and have an eye for what a child and the parents need. You offer guidance and support that fits their situation, from a short hospital visit to a long-term admission.
What you'll do
- Guiding children during examinations and treatments. You prepare children for, for example, surgery, an MRI, or a blood draw. Using visual materials, play, and helpful language, you show what is going to happen and help to reduce anxiety and tension.
- Providing care and attention in neonatology. You help newborn babies to feel as comfortable as possible during examinations and care moments. You support daily care, such as feeding and bathing, and take into account what a baby can handle at that moment.
- Supporting parents with attachment. When a baby is born prematurely or is ill, the first contact sometimes proceeds differently than expected. You help parents to recognize their baby's signals and provide tools to build a bond with their little one. In this, you can utilize video interaction guidance (VIB). By filming contact moments and reviewing them together, parents gain more insight into how their baby responds to them.
- Contributing to child-centered care. You observe children, draw up guidance plans where necessary, and advise colleagues on trauma-free and development-oriented care.
Additionally, you share your knowledge with colleagues, guide students and interns where necessary, and help in the development of educational materials and working methods.
A hospital can be quite tense for a child. If you notice that a child feels safer because of your guidance, that gives an incredible amount of satisfaction
How you'll work
You will work at the Leeuwarden location, where you will be part of a team of a total of ten medical pedagogical care providers. You will work closely with nurses, doctors, speech therapists, physiotherapists, and dietitians. The atmosphere is friendly and engaged. You will notice this in the way colleagues think along with one another, help each other when needed, and also show interest in one another outside of work.
You will work in both the pediatric ward and neonatology. Additionally, you will work in the ENT day clinic and can be deployed to the emergency department or other departments based on indication.
In the pediatric ward, you will see children with diverse care needs, ranging from a short-term admission to a long-term treatment trajectory. Furthermore, Frisius MC is a shared care hospital of the Prinses Máxima Centrum. Because of this, children with cancer can receive part of their treatment and guidance close to home. In neonatology, newborns often stay longer and development-oriented care is central.
This is you
You are patient, can listen well, and know how to offer calm to children and parents even in tense situations. You sense what a family needs and adapt your approach accordingly. You work independently, but also enjoy seeking collaboration with colleagues. When a situation changes, you can switch gears quickly. Additionally, you handle confidential information with care.
