**Full time - Fixed term for 3 months, with possibility of extension**
If you are looking for a rewarding career and to work within an epic team that will help you grow and thrive, then you have come to the right place. Working within our Rosemount Terrace service you can start your day knowing what you do really does make a difference
We are looking for a mental health and wellbeing worker to join a dedicated team delivering high quality, person-centred support to five adults within their home (a small care home, registered with the Care Inspectorate).
You will become part of a dynamic service demonstrating professionalism, safeguarding, reflective practice and continuous service improvement. By collaborating with individuals, their families and multi-agency professionals, you will strive to promote positive mental and physical wellbeing through preventative and early intervention approaches. Recovery often involves supporting individuals during periods of distress, so it is important to do so sensitively with individuals when developing coping strategies and accessing the right services at the right time. In doing so, you will support individuals to increase their life skills in line with their preferences and the Health and Social Care Standards. This often involves a variety of duties including medication support and domestic tasks.
Promoting communication is essential, so individuals can meaningfully participate in decisions and choices that matter to them, whilst expressing their own personality and talents. As a key worker, you will assist individuals to progress and review their recovery via a range of coaching approaches and toolkits.
The service also facilitates joint activities so that individuals and their recovery team can learn together about health, safety and wellbeing. It is an exciting time to join our service with a range of collective initiatives underway, including exploring the night sky, astrophotography, and our fab magazine.
The role will involve working evenings, weekends, and sleepovers on a rota basis. Sleepovers are paid at a rate of £106.28 including holiday pay.
We can offer you a tonne of employee benefits, and we can promise you’ll be inspired by some pretty amazing humans every single day. We will support you on your own career path; developing new skills, accessing formal and informal learning experiences and providing opportunities to put your continual progress into practice.
