Casemanager FACT Amsterdam Nieuw West

As a casemanager at GGZ inGeest, you provide clients with structure and care. You guide, observe, and signal changes in their physical and mental well-being. You do this not alone, but with a multidisciplinary team of specialists, nurses, and supervisors. Within that team, your observations make the difference.

• The FACT team treats adults (up to 65 years old) with a severe psychiatric disorder (EPA) and support needs in various areas of life, such as housing, work, meaning, health, finances, and social contacts. The team you will be joining (FACT team Osdorp) is a mature, positive-minded, and close-knit team. The team possesses a lot of expertise and has a great capacity for learning: there is room to make mistakes, to discuss them with one another, and to learn from them. During the onboarding process, you will be supported by a buddy. In short, the team has everything it takes to make you feel ‘at home’ quickly.

• Work is carried out according to the F-ACT method: an intensive form of outpatient, community-based treatment from a recovery-oriented perspective by various people working together in one team. Treatments take place in the client's own environment as much as possible.

• Active efforts are always made to collaborate with the client, their loved ones, and chain partners. Our starting point remains to find alignment with the client's goals and wishes.

• Within FACT, work is carried out in multidisciplinary teams consisting of psychiatrists, nurse practitioners, mental health psychologists, general practitioners, casemanagers, social workers, and IPS job coaches. The team has short lines of communication with our chain partners and colleagues from other departments within GGZ inGeest.

• In close cooperation with fellow practitioners, you take charge of the clients in your caseload. This includes, among other things, home visits and appointments with the client on location.

• You tackle various aspects of the treatment process, ranging from intake interviews to dealing with crisis situations and providing system- and complaint-oriented treatments.

• You are empathetic and willing to listen, maintaining an eye for the client's full story. Together with them and their loved ones, you strive for recovery, no matter how small the steps may sometimes seem.

• You support your group of clients in functioning as well as possible within society, especially in their own environment.

• An important aspect of your role is initiating and maintaining the network surrounding the client group. You work closely in the neighborhood with colleagues from sheltered and assisted living, welfare organizations, neighborhood teams, the police, and the housing association.

• Suppose you do not have a BIG-registered profession; we would be happy to talk with you about the possibility of becoming authorized and competent in nursing technical procedures, which in a FACT team consist of injections and medication administration.

• You will receive a permanent employment contract immediately.

• The position is scaled in FWG 55 CAO GGZ.

• At GGZ inGeest, we support you in your development, whether it is about deepening expertise, learning new skills, or increasing digital knowledge. You can read how we do this in the general terms and conditions.
