Role Responsibility
Raising the bar for person–centred care, you'll provide a range of recovery focused interventions, through key working sessions and group work.
People's lives can be truly changed with the help of your support, as you enable and prepare people to gain new skills and help find ways to promote long-term recovery.
As a Recovery Worker, you'll work with individuals on their recovery journey, devising individually tailored support and risk management plans and ensuring effective discharge planning.
Ultimately, you'll play a vital role in helping people to gain skills and coping strategies, all while encouraging positive change and independence.
The role requires you to work on a 24-hour rolling rota consisting of day, evening and waking night shifts including alternate weekends.
The Ideal Candidate
Preferably with experience in the mental health sector, it's essential that you have a good understanding of the recovery model, together with a solution–focused attitude and a person–centred approach.
You'll be equally comfortable getting things done, using your initiative and as part of a team, and have no problems working in a fast–paced environment and adapting to challenging situations.
And of course, you'll be the sort of person who enjoys talking to people with differing needs and complexities, is genuinely interested in helping people, and possesses a deep level of empathy, understanding and patience.
