Derbyshire, United Kingdom Rethink Mental Illness Full time

**Rethink Mental Illness are hiring a Support Worker to join our inspiring and friendly team at Shipley Lodge, Derbyshire.**

**Overview of the service or the team**

Shipley Lodge is a 16-bed single-level building for male and female clients. It provides a welcoming, clean and comfortable environment with facilities that support recovery and increasing independence. Residents have own bedroom with en-suite wet room. There are communal kitchens, bathrooms with baths & various living and dining areas. There is a home kitchen and laundry, but people are supported to use the independent facilities as much as they are able. Every room has a ‘nurse call button’ and there are call points throughout the home. We encourage people to make their rooms their own with personal items and choices about décor.

**How will you make a difference?**
- Nursing services are 24/7 services and involve personal care responsibilities - you will undertake basic personal care tasks as outlined in the care plan. These include support with eating or drinking/toileting, washing/bathing/dressing/oral care and the care of skin and hair.
- I provide key worker support to a specified number of service users, including one to one individual support and liaison with other mental health agencies on behalf of people who use our services.
- I always have the individual’s needs at the forefront, working to the recovery model and using communication, motivation and coaching skills to support the service user to achieve their goals and aspirations.
- I develop a rapport with service users based on respect and honesty and work within clear professional boundaries and the Rethink Mental Illness Code of Conduct.

**Caring for our people.**

**We offer a wide range of support. Some of our benefits include**:

- PULSE - our recognition, rewards, wellbeing, and benefits platform. Providing access to thousands of discounts and benefits including cashback; reloadable cards; savings etc. As well as being able to thank colleagues and nominate them for awards.
