Bank Recovery Worker

New Today

Job Introduction
Aldbanks is a supported living service which will provide accommodation and support to  people who may have a mixture of Mental Health and Autism. Clients are prompted to be as independent as they are able to be but this can be challenging at times.
Passionate about people, you’ll enjoy the scope -  supporting individuals to gain the skills to live independently. 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.
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 people to help them achieve their potential. You will form part of a wider supportive team within the region and there is the opportunity for growth in the future.
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.
Shift Patterns:
This is a 24 hour service, therefore flexibility is essential. You will be working a range of shifts from 7:00/8:00 am to 2:00/3:00pm and 2:00/3:00 pm to 9:00/10:00pm.
Please note that working hours may vary.
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.
