Freelance nurse in Biddinghuizen

Biddinghuizen is a village in the municipality of Dronten, surrounded by farmland and close to the Veluwemeer. The village has its own close-knit community in which older people like to keep living in their familiar surroundings. I work here as a freelance nurse, as part of my work area in the municipality of Dronten.

In a village, a care provider is no stranger. Clients and their families appreciate it when a temporary nurse also feels connected to their situation. I bring that involvement to my work.

Community care in a rural village

Much of the care in Biddinghuizen is delivered at home. A nurse often works alone and has to be able to judge for herself what a situation requires. My experience in home care helps me do that independently and carefully.

A temporary nurse who joins in

Through nursing cover I fill a period of understaffing. I ensure clear communication with the team, so that no questions are left open after my shifts.

A handover that is right

When care providers rarely see each other, the written handover becomes all the more important. I report briefly and clearly, so that the next colleague knows exactly what has happened and what still needs to be done.

Agreements that suit the village

Every team has its own way of working, and in a village like Biddinghuizen that often includes a personal bond with clients. I respect that way of working and tailor my input to it. If you see opportunities to make agreements within the team more consistent, I can help with that too through clear working agreements. We record the content, duration and goal of the assignment together in advance.
