Reconnect Peer Support Worker

4 months ago

Nottingham, United Kingdom Nottinghamshire Healthcare NHS Foundation Trust Full time

We are looking for an innovative and motivated Lived Experience Support Worker to work in the Reconnect Service across HMP Ranby, HMP Nottingham and into the community.

The Reconnect Service aims to improve the continuity of care of vulnerable people leaving prison by working with them before they leave and support their transition to community-based services, thereby safeguarding health gains made whilst in prison.

Whilst not a service that provides clinical interventions, the Reconnect Service offers liaison, advocacy, signposting and support to those leaving prison to support engagement in community-based health and support services. This approach aims to support the wellbeing of people leaving prison, reduce inequalities and address health-related drivers of offending behaviours.

The Reconnect Service aims to increase access to and uptake up of healthcare or relevant support services for individuals who have health vulnerabilities upon release from prison or immigration removal centres who would otherwise struggle to engage. Key to the service success is close partnership working with justice agencies, health and social care and third sector voluntary agencies.

If you would like a challenge and the opportunity to be an inclusive, creative practitioner, this job may be for you.

This is a great opportunity to work on developing and establishing a vital service for service users leaving prison, supporting their engagement within the community and helping to break the cycle of offending. The value of lived experience in supporting this population of people is understood as an integral part of this service.

As a Lived Experience Support Worker you will use your experiences to offer understanding, support in linking with appropriate services/agencies, promote choice and inspire hope and recovery. The role will include offering support to carers and relatives in the community, by enabling and assisting them to meet daily health, social care and well-being needs, in line with support plans and facilitating engagement with mainstream services. All work will be carried out under the supervision of the Team Manager/Reconnect Practitioners.

As a Lived Experience Support Worker, you will act as a recovery champion within the team and an ambassador for the Trust with external agencies and partner organisations. You will be supported and are expected to invest in your own personal and professional development, as well as supporting development of peer roles in the Trust.

The service works with individuals who are ordinarily resident in Nottinghamshire. The service has a base in HMP Ranby and HMP Nottingham, however, the staff member will be expected to support individuals who are returning to Nottingham/Nottinghamshire from other prisons around the country.

Nottinghamshire Healthcare employs over 10,000 colleagues who help #MakeADifference every day. We provide intellectual disability, mental health, community health, forensic and offender healthcare services across Nottinghamshire, Leicestershire, Lincolnshire and South Yorkshire. Care is delivered from over 120 sites within the community from acute settings and across low, medium and high secure environments including prisons.

As one of the largest mental health and community trusts in the East Midlands and one of the biggest employers in Nottinghamshire. We are also home to national and regional services such as the National High Secure Deaf Service and the Nottingham Centre for Transgender Health.

We are committed to flexible and agile working, including the opportunity to join our bank.

Your health and wellbeing is our priority and as such we invest significantly in this via our in-house Occupational Health Service, Staff Counselling Service and Health and Wellbeing Team.

We offer a number of employee-led staff networks, including Equality, Diversity and Inclusion (EDI) groups, our Green Champions Network, Freedom to Speak Up Network. Health and Wellbeing Champions Network and Menopause Champions. We provide care to a diverse range of communities and are passionate about supporting diversity and inclusion in the Trust.

If you believe in our values of Trust, Honesty, Respect, Compassion and Teamwork, then we would love to hear from you
