Are you a qualified ER nurse and are you curious about what it is like to work at the ER at Noordwest? Apply for an introductory meeting!

ER nurse:
As an ER nurse, you will work in our brand-new emergency room (ER), where we continuously strive for the highest quality of care. On the acute axis, you are indispensable in providing fast, effective care to patients in critical situations.

In North Holland, an emergency is truly an emergency. Patients only come to us when it is serious, and you will notice that. You will see many vitally threatened patients, ambulances driving to and from, and the busyness of the department is constantly palpable. That requires sharpness, overview, and rapid decision-making.
You are constantly switching between priorities, consulting with ER physicians, and accurately analyzing and observing patients. You flourish in this hectic environment and derive energy from delivering top-level acute care.
Together with a professional and close-knit team of colleagues, you contribute daily to the best care. We work intensively with medical specialists, physician assistants, and all other colleagues in the ER: one team, one task, and with an eye for each other.

emergency room:
Our ER fulfills an important regional function and is characterized by a wide and complex range of patients: from trauma to acute internal issues.
Alkmaar location is a top-clinical hospital with close cooperation with the Amsterdam UMC. At this ER, we treat approximately 31,000 patients annually (excluding heart/lung care). You will work in a modern, recently opened environment that is fully designed for efficiency, job satisfaction, and patient safety.
Den Helder location offers a unique way of working within the acute care department (AAZ), where the ER, GP post, observatory, and medium care work together. With about 13,000 patients per year, the setting is smaller in scale, but your role is even more versatile and directly at the gateway of care.
At both locations, you will work in an expert, committed team in which collaboration and development are central. The lines are short, the atmosphere is open, and your growth as a professional comes first. For this vacancy, the main location is Alkmaar and you will also work in Den Helder occasionally.

ER nurse:
a committed and ambitious ER nurse with a heart for acute care. You remain calm under pressure, maintain an overview in hectic situations, and communicate clearly and empathically with patients and their loved ones.
You are a true team player, flexibly deployable, and willing to work irregular shifts, including evenings, nights, and weekends. Good to know: Self-scheduling gives you the space to work at times that suit your life, together with a committed ER team.

Tarno - ER nurse:

'No day is fixed in the ER, and that is exactly what makes it so interesting! You have short but intensive contact with patients. Within a few hours, you know what is going on and you provide immediate care. That dynamism suits me. No fixed pattern, but constantly switching and responding to what is happening.
What makes our ER unique is the diversity in the team and the strong cooperation with doctors and colleagues. Thanks to good triage and cooperation, we quickly have a complete picture of the patient and can act efficiently. That benefits both the patient and the waiting times.' Tarno works at both locations: 'Ideal; I make my own schedule and choose for myself where I work: Alkmaar or Den Helder. That flexibility gives a lot of freedom.'
