High Care Neonatal Nurse (night shifts)

• In our private suites, you build a special bond with families during one of the most vulnerable and precious periods of their lives.
• You give parents the confidence to take over the care of their baby themselves, step by step.
• You have influence over your own schedule and all the space to further develop yourself.

During the night, you provide highly complex nursing care to premature and sick newborns in our maternity center. You work according to our Family Centered Care vision, or family-oriented care. With us, mother, child, and partner stay together in a private suite, and as a nurse, you visit the family, rather than the other way around. From this perspective, you actively involve the entire family in care tasks to stimulate bonding. They are your partners in care: you work together to provide the best care to mother and child. It is your task to coordinate this care and to inform, guide, and coach the parents. With your sincere and warm attention for parents and loving care for the neonate, you make the difference. You are the connecting factor in the multidisciplinary collaboration. For the acute care of neonates, you work with Concord, NIPPV, and CFM. You also actively contribute to establishing diagnosis and treatment plans, as well as to the quality improvement of our care. Additionally, you supervise our colleagues in training to become neonatal nurses.

Vronie, neonatal nurse, about her work: "The beautiful thing about this work is that the gratitude of parents really comes forward. And they go home with their baby full of self-confidence. Being able to contribute to that as a neonatal nurse gives me a lot of satisfaction."

You will join a large team of energetic and diverse colleagues with whom we are permanently building the development and growth of our Maternity Center. Approximately 3,500 births take place with us annually. With the expansion, we are growing to 4,000 births per year. You will find an innovative, passionate, and committed team here, and we stand for quality. In addition to regular maternity care, we have a medium care, high care, and post-ICU department, where together we provide the best possible care to the most vulnerable newborns under rapidly changing circumstances.

You are a decisive and independent nurse with a broad clinical perspective and a good developing capacity for reflection. You can handle unexpected and acute situations well and like to take the lead yourself. You have a warm, empathetic character with an eye for the entire family. Sometimes different views on treatment must be aligned. Therefore, we find it important that you are highly communicative and stand firm in your shoes in contact with parents and medical specialists. You are open to changes and get happy from new ideas to continuously improve our family-oriented care.

To be able to work as a neonatal nurse at St. Antonius Geboortezorg, you have at least:

• HBO or MBO nursing diploma with BIG registration;
• Diploma in neonatal specialization.

At St. Antonius, you work on (highly) complex care with your heart in the right place. We are a top-clinical teaching hospital where patient care, education, and research go hand in hand. Thanks to our size, we make a real impact, but remain agile and personal.

Our clinical priorities are heart & vascular, lungs, and cancer. Additionally, we are one of the leaders in the Netherlands in the field of value-based care. This means that we do not only look at what is medically possible, but especially at what truly makes a difference for the individual patient. By structurally measuring the most important outcomes and learning together, also with the other Santeon hospitals, we make care a little bit better every day. With us, every employee, including you, makes a difference for the patient.
