Do you want to help build a brighter future for communities and individuals in Taunton doing a highly rewarding job. Turning Point's drug & alcohol services are currently expanding during a really exciting time in the sector with new funding and investment. We're currently recruiting into our Rough Sleeper provision, targeting homeless individuals, offering a flexible and outreach response to highly vulnerable individuals sleeping rough or living in temporary accommodation. As a Rough Sleepers Recovery Worker we offer a starting salary of £25,116 rising each year in line with our pay progression salary bands, rising to £29,383 per year. (Dependent on experience you may be offered a starting salary above the initial starting salary). You will have opportunities to progress your career with a structured learning journey and clearly defined career pathways that will enable you to achieve your long-term goals and work to your strengths. Whether you are looking to progress into a management and leadership role or to be a specialist in your field as an Advanced Substance Use Practitioner at Turning point we will support and encourage you on your career journey. Role Responsibility Recovery Workers will manage pathways to effectively place service users into detox/rehab centres. Once placed, they will continuously liaise with key workers to track service users' journey and progress. They will also support effective discharge coordination from the detox/rehabilitation process. This post will provide assertive engagement and coordinate on-going support post residential rehabilitation or reengage the individual into structured treatment following a failed rehabilitation to avoid rough sleeping and improve outcomes. As a result, the role will reduce the pressure of completing the rehab process by removing the risk of sleeping rough if the rehabilitation process ends early.

However, we also recognise that many people have transferrable skills from other backgrounds such as mental health, housing or other health and social care provision. The roles are varied, so flexibility, an ability to work dynamically on a one to one and group basis and knowledge of relapse and other barriers to recovery will be vital but we can help to shape these skills where needed. We also look for candidates with excellent communication skills and who share our values as an organisation. We value individuals with lived experience but also those who are just interested in this line of work; our Trainee Recovery Worker program enables individuals without all relevant experience to gain an entry level position within the organisation before moving on to other roles. We value individual creativity and initiative and, whatever your role, you will be fully involved in identifying opportunities to improve the quality of our services and the service user experience. Your ideas will be listened to and your suggestions implemented wherever possible. You will be supported in your role by extensive training to help develop your skills. Our learning culture encourages everyone to stay on top of the latest developments in their field and helps drive service improvement. About us What Benefits Will I Receive?

Job Introduction This position does not meet the requirements for sponsorship under current UK immigration guidelines Would you like to be part of a small and highly specialised service which is committed to supporting me in the community? Would you like to involve me and support me to be part of my local community?

I'm looking for caring and understanding people to support me both at home and out in my local community. I'm a woman in my 50s with autism and a moderate learning disability.

Your duties will include: promoting the independence of people we support supporting a full range of daily activities including cleaning and cooking, days out or going away on holiday arranging activities in the home and in the local community developing individual's life skills and personal interests helping individual's to stay safe and healthy assisting with personal care needs manual handling if required supporting people with medication Ensuring record keeping is maintained to the required standard at all times and contributing to service monitoring requirements.
