Nurse Practitioner HoPE Amstelveen

At HoPE, we believe that being stable is only the beginning. It is precisely when the acute treatment is behind them that space arises to continue building towards recovery, self-management, and social participation. We are looking for a Nurse Practitioner who, with courage, sincere curiosity, and a recovery-oriented perspective, wants to contribute to this beautiful, active treatment phase. Will you build with us?

Contribute to true recovery and social participation. GGZ inGeest is looking for a Nurse Practitioner for HoPE. Further develop yourself within a multidisciplinary team and help build the care of the future. Your heart, knowledge, and experience are urgently needed.

• You will be working at the HoPE care program, part of the outpatient clinics. HoPE stands for Recovery, Support, Participation, and Empowerment.

• Care within HoPE is provided to clients who have completed an intensive treatment period and are ready for the next step. The transition to HoPE represents a lighter care offering: a phase in which the acute illness period can be let go and space literally arises for recovery and regaining self-management. We guide clients to stand independently and firmly on their own two feet in society again.

• You will deal with a great diversity of psychiatric issues, which makes the work varied and substantively challenging. Within the treatment, we work with active, evidence-based treatment methods such as ACT, CBT, Yucel, and COMET.

• Our treatments are offered both individually and in groups. Additionally, we offer maintenance treatments with lithium and clozapine to clients with stable bipolar and psychotic disorders. In doing so, we actively seek connection with the regional social domain and recovery initiatives.

• You will land in a close-knit multidisciplinary team. Characteristic of the working atmosphere are personal influence, low thresholds, and informal mutual contact. At the same time, you benefit from a large network of colleagues around you, ensuring short lines and easy knowledge sharing.

• As a Nurse Practitioner, you will work as a lead practitioner with your own caseload. You are the steady face and the first point of contact for your clients during their recovery process.

• You will be involved in diagnostics, care coordination, somatic screenings, and the drafting, implementation, and evaluation of treatment plans. You prescribe medication, carefully monitor its effects and any side effects, and, where necessary, carry out maintenance treatments, including lithium and clozapine monitoring.

• You actively support clients in increasing their autonomy and help them work step-by-step towards as independent a life as possible. Recovery of social and societal functioning is central to this.

• We provide you with the space and trust to utilize your expertise optimally. You share your knowledge with colleagues, think along about the substantive development of the team, and make an active contribution to the further development of our recovery-oriented care.

• You are a BIG-registered Mental Health Nurse Practitioner.

• You are sincerely curious about clients and colleagues, think in terms of possibilities, and gain energy from recovery-oriented care. You dare to take initiative and enjoy working together on the further development of HoPE.

• You will receive a permanent employment contract immediately.

• The position is scaled in FWG 65 in accordance with the GGZ collective labor agreement.

• 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.

• View all employment conditions.

With #Geestverwanten, we show who we truly are: people who take care blood-seriously, but who, fortunately, do not always take themselves seriously. Especially now that care is demanding a lot, we are looking for colleagues who understand that laughing is at least as important as listening. A place where you learn and grow together and can occasionally complain about the coffee, while meanwhile realizing how valuable your work is.
