### Job Introduction
Everyone’s Turning Point is unique. It’s the moment when they realise they’ve
made a small, but important, step forward. Very often, that small step is the
start of something bigger. But only when the right support, advice and
services are in place. That’s where you come in.
Alfred Minto House is a well-established specialist residential service that
works with ten men with mental health difficulties and forensic histories. We
aim to support individuals to continue their journey of recovery in a
community setting.
### Role Responsibility
Raising the bar for person–centred care, you’ll provide a range of recovery
focused support through key working sessions and group work. People’s lives
will be truly changed by you as you enable and prepare them to gain new skills
and help them find ways to promote their long term recovery.
As a Recovery Worker, you’ll work with individuals on their recovery, devising
individually tailored support and risk management plans and ensuring effective
discharge planning. Ultimately, you’ll play a vital role in helping them to
gain skills and coping strategies, all while encouraging positive change and
independence.
You will be required to work 37 hours per week, in a shift pattern including
sleep-ins and weekends. You have one weekend on and one weekend off, rotas are
completed at least two months in advance and there is always room for
flexibility, providing the needs of the service are met.
### 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 on your own 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 different needs, is genuinely
interested in helping them, and possesses a deep level of empathy,
understanding and patience.
### About us

across England, we take real pride in the services we offer.
We run all of our services on a not-for-profit basis; instead, we invest every

your money go further, a culture supporting recognition and celebration, or
opportunities to boost your career – we want to support you in every way we
can with our total reward package.
