Mental Health Nurse Practitioner - IHT Team

As a Mental Health Nurse Practitioner within the Intensive Home Treatment Team, or IHT team, you are the expert in the field of nursing and medical psychiatric diagnostics, treatment, and guidance. Together with the psychiatrist and the GZ psychologist, you are responsible for implementing the correct treatment and assessing acute and complex requests for help. In doing so, you assess the situation and refer where necessary. You contribute ideas regarding treatment matters and thereby promote the optimal quality of care. You work in a multidisciplinary crisis team that has short lines of communication with other teams within GGZ Friesland, such as the HIC clinic, regional teams, and other care providers.

You are responsible for all matters surrounding the short-term crisis treatment of your patients in their own environment, home treatment, or during part-time treatment at our location in Drachten. The objective of the IHT team is to prevent clinical admission. If an admission cannot be prevented, the IHT team ensures that the admission is utilized for as short a time as possible. This makes the work varied and challenging. The behavior of our patients is sometimes unpredictable. You must be able to deal with unexpected situations. Precisely in this critical phase of someone's life, you can make a substantial difference.

• You will get plenty of opportunities to develop your ideas together with fellow nurse practitioners in order to firmly develop the nursing domain within all IHT regions

• You dare to think outside the box to treat and guide adults in a crisis situation

We are there for the people who need us most.

At home, at the outpatient clinic, in part-time treatment, or during admission to the clinic. We are also there in case of crisis, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
