**Because People Matter - Work with Us**:
Do you have a passion for helping vulnerable people enjoy as much fulfillment as they can and feel included in their community? If compassion, care and inclusiveness are an important part of who you are, our opportunities to work away from the routine in a demanding, challenging but emotionally rewarding role could be for you.

Our Turning Point Scotland Services in Carluke, are looking for people like you to help provide individualised support to adults with a wide range of needs, either on an individual 1:1 basis or alongside others and as part of a team.

**TURNING POINT SCOTLAND SOUTH LANAKRSHIRE ALCOHOL & OTHER DRUGS REACHOUT SERVICE**

The South Lanarkshire Alcohol & Other Drugs REACHOUT Service will work within the Alcohol & Drug Partnership to establish a service focusing on supporting people over the age of 16 with problematic alcohol & drug use through an Assertive Outreach and Intensive Case Management model.

The service model will focus on three key groups:

- Individuals who do not engage at any level;
- Individuals who sporadically engage therefore proving difficult to achieve desired outcomes, and
- Individuals who partially engage where the focus is purely on medical treatment

We are committed to helping individuals begin their journey to recovery whilst utilising harm reduction approaches. Safety will be at the forefront of care delivery and we will make efforts to include families and communities in the continued growth and development of the service model to assist in reducing stigma, increase engagement and retention of individuals within the service/treatment/pathway which works best for them.

The support we provide is always person centred, we do this by involving people who know the person well, this includes family and friends, other health and Social Work professionals, Advocacy services and our own staff members.

As a Support Practitioner, you will work with individuals who have a wide range of support needs, providing them with practical and emotional support and encouraging them to achieve their own personal outcomes in all aspects of their daily lives e.g. keeping safe, meaningful activities, community involvement, physical health, relationships, emotional health and wellbeing.
