### Job Introduction

This exciting new development within Nottingham City welcomes enthusiastic
applicants to apply for this rare opportunity to be involved in shaping a
brand new service that will support individuals with complex mental health
needs.

Hunger Hill is a supported living service that supports men who may have dual
diagnoses, a history of drug andor alcohol use and forensic histories.

Passionate about people, you’ll enjoy the scope and support individuals to
gain the skills to live independently. With an emphasis on key working, you’ll
need to work flexibly to manage your own small caseload and help with the day
to day running of the service.

At Turning Point, we support people across the UK with mental health issues.
As a Recovery Worker, you’ll make a real difference to their lives as you work
closely with them to help them achieve their potential. Turning Point has
several well-established services within Nottingham. You will form part of a
wider supportive management team within the region and there is the
opportunity for growth in the future.

**We strongly encourage male candidates to apply.**

### Role Responsibility

Raising the bar for person–centred care, you’ll provide a range of recovery
focused support through key working sessions and group work. People’s lives
will be truly changed by you as you enable and prepare them to gain new skills
and help them find ways to promote their long term recovery. As a Recovery
Worker, you’ll work with individuals on their recovery, devising individually
tailored support and risk management plans and ensuring effective discharge
planning. Ultimately, you’ll play a vital role in helping them to gain skills
and coping strategies, all while encouraging positive change and independence.

The role requires you to work on a 24-hour rolling rota consisting of day,
evening and waking night shifts including alternate weekends.

### The Ideal Candidate

Preferably with experience in the mental health sector, it’s essential that
you have a good understanding of the recovery model, together with a
solution–focused attitude and a person–centred approach.

You’ll be equally comfortable getting things done on your own initiative and
as part of a team, and have no problems working in a fast–paced environment
and adapting to challenging situations. And of course, you’ll be the sort of
person who enjoys talking to people with different needs, is genuinely
interested in helping them, and possesses a deep level of empathy,
understanding and patience.

### About us

As a leading health and social care provider with more than 300 locations
across England, we take real pride in the services we offer.

Across the varied regions, sectors and settings we operate within, our
organisation is held together by a shared vision – and our people are
connected by the same values. These include belief in potential, confidence in

We run all of our services on a not-for-profit basis; instead, we invest every
penny back into our services and people. We never stop believing in change for
the better, and we work constantly to improve the lives of the people we
support.

Our people bring our vision to life. So, if you are enthusiastic, motivated
and committed to support others to fulfilling their potential, here at Turning
Point, we dont just offer you a job – we offer you a career.
