About the Role
We are seeking a dedicated and passionate Recovery Worker to join our team at our brand new Ashford-based Recovery House. This residential service provides up to 5 days support for individuals with enduring mental health needs, who are in crisis.
As a Recovery Worker, you will provide recovery-focused support to service users in accordance with their support plans. You will have well-honed skills in positive communication, engagement, and will be able to demonstrate unconditional positive regard for service users.
You will work alongside members of the service user's circle of support, to enable individuals to be happy, healthy, and successful in achieving their life goals.
Your typical duties will include:
* Providing support and guidance to service users
* Supporting service users with their medication
* Daily record keeping and incident report writing
* Help with inducting new staff members
* Upholding the cleanliness of the service to adhere to infection prevention control measures
You will be required to work in a flexible manner on a roster basis including office hours, evenings, some weekends and sleep-ins.
Two of these posts are for dedicated night Recovery Workers. An integral part of the team, these two individuals - although primarily lone workers - will be supported in this role by a site-based sleep-in colleague, who can be called on in an emergency.
What We Offer
We offer a comprehensive total reward package that includes:
* Comprehensive learning and development opportunities
* 31 days' paid holiday a year, increasing with each year of service up to 33 days
* An exclusive discounts hub for TP colleagues
* Flexible working solutions to support your work-life balance
* Life Assurance of up to 3x annual salary and a competitive Pension Scheme
* Access to our Rightsteps Therapy service
* A 24/7 Employee Assistance Programme
* Recognition awards and Long Service bonuses
* Flexible benefit options
We value the personal skills and interests you can bring to the role and to the lives of the service users we support.
