Nurse Follow-up Clinic Closed

As a nurse at GGZ inGeest, you always work together. You do this at one of our clinics. Play an important role within the treatment team. Observe and signal changes and contribute to a safe and supportive environment. Together, we make the difference for our clients.

• Vervolgkliniek Westerpoort in Bennebroek offers (long-term) treatment to 87 clients with a Severe Psychiatric Disorder (SPD) spread across 4 teams. There are 3 open wards, including 1 ward with 27 HAT homes (apartments). Additionally, there is a (new) closed ward. 

• At Westerpoort, we take the time that is necessary, sometimes several months, to promote recovery. We do not focus solely on symptoms, but pay attention to the person behind them and his or her network. Building a relationship of trust and intensive contact with the client and their loved ones is central. Our quiet, green environment contributes to a sense of safety and well-being. 

• Various recovery facilities such as sports, activities, day programs, treatment, spiritual care, and employment support the recovery process. We work towards an appropriate and as high as possible achievable discharge, such as independent living or protected/sheltered living.

• On the closed ward, care is provided to 20 clients who require (temporary) closed admission as part of their recovery process.
