Perinatal Peer Support Worker
3 weeks ago
Do you have your own personal lived experience of recovery from Perinatal Mental Health challenges and of experiencing care within a Perinatal Mental Health Service?
Perinatal describes the period of time from pregnancy until 12-24 months after birth.
This is an excellent opportunity to be part of an established, dynamic and friendly perinatal community mental health service. We are seeking an enthusiastic and motivated individual who would be committed to working within a multi-disciplinary team (MDT) to support the recovery of the families who are being cared for in this context.
You must have your own personal lived experience of recovery from perinatal mental health difficulties and including having experienced care within a Perinatal Mental Health Service. We are looking for people who are willing to positively share their personal experiences with others in order to support clients in their journey of recovery. You will be responsible for working with individuals to identify personal recovery goals as identified in care plans / health and wellbeing plans, assisting with groups as well as case specific 1:1 work and supporting service users to navigate through their care pathway and towards their own aspirations of a meaningful recovery.
- Only applicants who have completed the ELFT PSW training and have lived experience of perinatal mental health difficulties will be considered*
Peer Support Workers (PSWs) will provide intentional peer support (emotional and practical support) to service users in the community. This support is designed to support service users in progressing in their individual recovery journeys and access activities which are meaningful to them and their baby.
The PSW will take a lead role in embedding recovery values (mutuality, individual responsibility, agreed goals, individual narratives etc.) within the services in which they are based.
Through the sharing of a lived experience of mental ill-health and use of mental health service, the PSW will provide hope, inspiration and a belief that recovery is possible for all service users. Within a person-centred relationship they will facilitate and support self-determination and a re-connection with other individuals and the wider community.
The PSW will work alongside health care professionals to support service users and co-facilitate groups embedding the ethos of peer support and recovery in clinical teams.
The PSW will work with an agreed number of service users on a 1-2-1 and group basis. They will also attend clinical team meetings, business meetings, training sessions and reviews providing a recovery/ service user perspective.
Our mission is to make a positive difference to people's lives by improving the quality of life for all we serve. Our values are: We Care, We Respect, We are Inclusive - so we are looking for people who live and breathe these qualities when supporting service users and carers, and in their relationships with colleagues in the Trust and our partner organisations.
Kindly refer to the job description and person specification that is attached to the vacancy profile.
