Supported Housing Worker

Job Introduction At Turning Point, we support people across the UK with mental health issues. As the Transition Navigator, you'll make a real difference to their lives as you work closely with them to help them achieve their potential. Beacon Lodge is a mental health step down unit that supports people to transition from acute mental health wards back into the community. Passionate about people, you'll enjoy the scope of this role. With an emphasis on recovery working alongside specialist housing and benefit related support, you'll need to work flexibly to manage your own small caseload and help with the day to day running of the service. 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. You will also have off rota responsibilities such as housing and benefit assessments, identifying housing needs, liaising with local authorities to ensure that service users are supported in their move on from the service. On rota, 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. The role requires you to work on a 24-hour rolling rota consisting of 12-hour day and waking night shifts including alternate weekends. The Ideal Candidate Ideally 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. Housing and benefit knowledge would be desirable in this role but support and training will be provided to the successful candidate. About us 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 run all of our services on a not-for-profit basis; instead, we invest every penny back into our services and people. We never stop believing in change for the better, and we work constantly to improve the lives of the people we support. What Benefits Will I Receive? 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. Join our team and discover the comprehensive benefits we offer by following the link below to explore all the exciting perks available to our employees.

Our vision is to break down the barriers that stop people getting the support they need to live a life they value.
