Mental health worker Heerlen who was stabbed last week has died | Domestic

The incident took place last Monday around 12.15 pm. This happened in the Mondriaan mental health institution on John F. Kennedylaan in Heerlen.

The woman was then stabbed on the grounds of the institution. A short time later, the police arrested a 29-year-old woman from Heerlen as a suspect. All of the victim’s closest colleagues were taken care of, including people who had seen the incident happen.

There was a “treatment relationship” in the past between the victim and the suspect, the Public Prosecution Service (OM) reports. The suspect will appear in court on Thursday. After the death of the victim, she is no longer suspected of attempted murder or manslaughter, but of murder or manslaughter, the Public Prosecution Service says.

Mondriaan says that the death of the employee leaves “a big void” in the organization. “Our colleague was spontaneous, enthusiastic, driven and worked from her heart,” the mental health institution wrote in a statement. “This loss affects us all deeply.”

The victim worked on a so-called ForFACT team. This is a program in which care providers from different disciplines work together in the treatment and guidance of clients. This includes, for example, psychiatrists, nurses and social workers. According to Mondriaan, the victim “put this treatment method on the map”.
