ASSISTANT PROJECT WORKER

GAMH - Our Approach

Glasgow Association for Mental Health is an independent Scottish charity

that provides community based support to the people of Glasgow and

their communities. The services and opportunities we offer help people

who are recovering from mental health problems to live the lives THEY

want to live. We also support Carers, including Young Carers and

promote the equality, inclusion and human rights of people who have

been affected by mental ill health. We work with people in ways that

encourage hope (belief that recovery is possible) learning and self

confidence. We recognise that people are the experts in their own lives

and their own health. They are experts by experience and have the

right to make their own choices and decisions.

We recognise that the effects of inequality and stigma and discrimination make recovery more difficult than it should be and undermine people's sense of wellbeing. As an organisation we work to ensure that both as a service provider and as an employer, we avoid discrimination and promote fairness and inclusion for everyone.

Purpose

The role of the Assistant Project Worker will contribute to the effective delivery of our community based support services ensuring that they meet key service objectives and the expressed needs of service users and carers. The Assistant Project Worker will encourage the people we support to lead the life they want to lead by adopting a recovery focused approach to practice which encourages and supports people to build in confidence, self-esteem and to increase and develop life skills to plan for their future.

Specific Responsibilities – Service Delivery

1. Conduct and assist in the assessment process to establish support needs, risk factors and service suitability

2. Work collaboratively with the service user in order to develop an individual support plan using agreed GAMH paperwork with the supervision of the Project Worker.

3. Work in partnership with the service user or carer to identify support goals and regularly review user defined outcomes under the supervision of a Project Worker.

4. Facilitate opportunities for service users and carers to build networks of support so that they are more connected with their communities and have links with other people and resources that are important to their health and wellbeing.

5. Support service users to sustain their tenancies and build a sense of home.

6. Contribute to the support of carers by offering them information about appropriate resources and carer support services as appropriate.

7. Participate in and facilitate other support opportunities as directed.
