At Turning Point, we support people across the UK with mental health issues. As a Recovery Worker, you’ll make a real difference to their lives as you work closely with them to help them achieve their potential. Angel Lace is a supported living service that supports people who may have dual diagnoses, legal restrictions, a history of drug/and or alcohol use and complex support needs.
With an emphasis on key working, you’ll need to work flexibly to manage your own small caseload and help with the day to day running of the service.
The service operates 24/7 with rota consisting of day, evening and waking night shifts including alternate weekends.
Raising the bar for person–centred support, you’ll provide a range of recovery focused support through key working sessions. 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 journey, devising individually tailored support and risk management plans. Ultimately, you’ll play a vital role in helping them to gain skills and coping strategies, all while encouraging positive change and independence.
We are looking for some experience in the mental health sector, and that you will have a good understanding of the recovery model, together with a solution–focused attitude and a person–centred approach.
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.
As a leading health and social care provider with more than 300 locations across England, we take real pride in the services we offer.
We know reward looks different to each person and so whether its ways to make 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.
You will get 33 days’ paid holiday a year, increasing with each year of service up to 35 days. Plus the option to buy additional holidays and spread the cost.
