Our Turning Point Scotland Services in Inverclyde 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.

The service Turning Point Scotland Inverclyde Housing Support is designed to meet the requirements of people with complex needs arising from their mental health issues and / or substance misuse. The service was set up as part of the redesign of mental health services within Inverclyde, shifting the balance of care into a community based provision. Most of the individuals we support have a moderate to severe mental illness and some have difficulties in relation to alcohol and drug misuse.

The support we provide is tailored to suit the needs of each individual. The service operates 24/7 and gives support to 11 individuals in their own tenancies within a secure building, controlled and operated by support staff. The service also provides outreach supports to a number of individuals within the Inverclyde area.
Our staff enjoy training, support and development, pension and benefits packages. Their personal qualities really do make a difference to the lives of the people we support.
