In addition to this position, Iris is also a member of the supervisory board at Stichting Ouderenzorg Noord Beveland (SONB). In 2011, Iris completed her bachelor's degree in Nursing and then worked as a nurse in various healthcare facilities (hospital, nursing home and home care). In 2014, after graduating in Nursing Science, she started teaching Nursing at HZ.
A year later, Iris joined the Healthy Region research group. This was with the idea of shaping the connection between education and research.
Since then, Iris has been working in the combination position of lecturer-researcher within the HZ. Her interests lie mainly in prevention and health promotion, but also in the use of technology in healthcare and interprofessional cooperation within and outside healthcare. Iris enjoys contributing to social issues, preferably regionally to make her own region healthier, more vital and more livable.
