Timeline
In the House, she drew attention to long COVID, a condition from which she was suffering as a result of her coronavirus infection, and offered an action plan to Minister for Medical Care Tamara van Ark. Following the swearing in of the fourth Rutte cabinet in January 2022, her specialties changed to the coronavirus, curative care, and medicine. She defended her party's position to keep open the option of instating a 2G policy, under which only vaccinated or recovered people are allowed to enter certain places, to fight the COVID-19 pandemic. Paulusma complained about the hatred, sexism, and accusations she was experiencing since taking on the COVID-19 portfolio, and months later a man was sentenced to one month in prison after making threats against her as well as an acting mayor and two police officers. When the health minister was considering closing two of the four locations in the Netherlands for pediatric heart surgery for the sake of centralization, Paulusma filed a motion in February 2022 to force the investigation to take regional spread into account. It was supported by a majority of the House. Another motion of Paulusma was carried to send free self-tests to women to detect the human papillomavirus (HPV), which can lead to cervical cancer. This was in response to decreasing turn-out during screenings for the virus. The self-tests had earlier only been available upon request.
She was one of the lijstduwers of D66 in Groningen in the 2022 municipal elections.
She ran for member of parliament in the 2021 general election, being placed fifteenth on D66's party list. Paulusma was elected and received 14,933 preference votes. She tested positive for the coronavirus on 30 March, causing her to miss the swearing in of the new House of Representatives the following day. Paulusma was eventually installed on 15 April. Paulusma became her party's spokesperson for curative care, mental health care, assisted living for people with psychological and psychosocial issues, caregivers, medicine, and war victims, and she is a member of the Committees for Health, Welfare and Sport and for Kingdom Relations (vice chair).
Besides her job, Paulusma has also been serving as the chair of the board of directors of the International Film Festival Assen (IFA) since 2019 and as the secretary of the three-person board of directors of Stichting Lutje Geluk, which makes it possible for financially strained families to go on trips, since its formation in 2018.
Paulusma was re-elected in November 2018 as D66's second candidate. Her new specialties in the council included health care, welfare, local democracy, safety, and diversity. She also helped organize the campaign Raad zoekt Vrouw (Council is looking for women) to get more women elected to the Groningen council, for which she received the 2017 inspiration award from D66's Els Borst Netwerk. Paulusma also won the European Innovation in Politics Award for Democracy in 2019 for her work on the cooperative district council. She left the municipal council in April 2021 after her election to the House of Representatives.
While a councilor, Paulusma served as chair of D66's national thematic department Care and Welfare, as a board member of the Association of Netherlands Municipalities (VNG; 2016–2021), and as a board member of the Els Borst Netwerk, which promotes gender equality within D66.
She was inspired to go into politics by Els Borst, D66 leader and Ministers of Health, Welfare, and Sport, and joined D66 in 2012. Paulusma was elected to the Groningen municipal council in the 2014 municipal elections as D66's eighth candidate. She had decided to run for office because municipalities had been given more health care responsibilities, and she therefore deemed it necessary for people with experience in that field to be in the municipal council. Paulusma was one of the organizers of a G1000 conference, which was held in Groningen in June 2015. The conference about the city's future was attended by over 500 citizens, who had been chosen through a lottery, and it followed the concept of other G1000 conferences that had been held in Belgium and the Netherlands. Paulusma was also one of the initiators of a cooperative district council with members chosen through a lottery in her own district, the Oosterparkwijk. She had been inspired by a similar council in the London Borough of Lambeth. In the municipal council, she proposed making it possible for citizens to retrieve the municipality's file of them online. She also advocated banning smoking in places such as playgrounds and schools.
She started her career as a district nurse for Thuiszorg Groningen, working there between 2003 and 2007. Paulusma then served as a partner at MAD Multimedia and a senior account manager at Storm Marketing Consultants. She returned to health care in 2011, working as manager at Thuiszorg Icare, and became a manager at the University Medical Center Groningen (UMCG) in 2013. She worked as a manager and project leader at Treant Zorggroep in 2017 before becoming a district nurse again the following year at TSN Thuiszorg. Between 2019 and her election to the House in 2021, she was a program manager at Ommelander Hospital and the UMCG.
