Parnassia Noord-Holland is looking for a social psychiatric nurse for the Outpatient Geriatric Psychiatry team in Purmerend and surrounding areas.

The elderly are the future. Are you a social psychiatric nurse with experience or an affinity for elderly people with psychiatric issues, and do you enjoy working in an outpatient setting? We would love to meet you!

You make the difference for those aged 65 and over in Waterland!

We work together with the geriatric clinic and other outpatient departments, as well as with healthcare institutions and chain partners in the community.

You will work in a multidisciplinary team consisting of outpatient and social-psychiatric nurses, a healthcare psychologist, a nurse practitioner, a clinical geriatrician, and a psychiatrist. We offer both outpatient care and treatment at home, individually or in groups. Our close-knit team combines years of experience with room for individual initiative. We invest continuously in development and training and are open to innovation - always with an eye for collegial cooperation.
