Practice support worker Ellen van Klinken

I am Ellen van Klinken 55 years old, born and raised in Amstelveen. I am married to Bert and live with our 3 daughters and 2 dogs in Waardhuizen. After various jobs in care

After studying HBO nursing, I started working in the VU. Then made the switch to paediatric nurse at Wilhemina Children's Hospital in Utrecht. After more than 12 years, I started working as a volunteer coordinator in a hospice. I cared for children as a nurse on call until 2020.

In 2022, I joined the general practice as a POH-somatics for internship and from November 2023 after completing the training, I started working in this position. 

The job as a POH (practice nurse) focuses on preventing the onset of diseases by working with the patient to see what lifestyle and adjustments would be appropriate for that person. In addition, preventing complications of diseases such as Diabetes or cardiovascular problems. Regular checks and appointments make it possible to match this care to patients. If one cannot come to the practice due to circumstances, it is possible to make an appointment for the POH to come to your home.

Transition to new computer system - important information

From Monday 7 July, we will be working with a new computer system. To make the transition to the new system as smooth as possible, we are on Thursday 4 July available for emergencies only. Monday 7 and Tuesday 8 July we will be available but with limited availability.

In addition, we would like to draw your attention to the following:

  • From Thursday 4 July to Monday 7 July, it is not possible to request repeat prescriptions. We kindly ask you to request them on time.
  • The patient portal Your Care Online will not be available from Thursday 4 July. This may take 1 to 2 weeks. We will keep you informed via the website. From 7 July, prescriptions can temporarily be requested by phone in the morning between 10 and 12 am.

As a team, we are doing our utmost to make this transition as smooth as possible. In the beginning it will take some getting used to, so we will need a little more time on the phone and in the consulting room. We therefore ask for your understanding and thank you very much for your cooperation.
