An exciting opportunity has arisen for a highly motivated individual to work part of the delivery of a new discharge pathway pilot. You will work with a team of professionals to develop a community forensic step-down accommodation for women being discharged from secure care.
The Pilot aims to extend the inpatient treatment model (the SCALE model within the Women's Secure Blended Service (WSBS)) into a community residential setting, to promote recovery beyond discharge and reduce the need for future admission. The project has funding for a 2-year period.
Key Responsibilities
* Co-facilitate planned therapy programmes that aim to focus on developing independent living skills, supporting with integration into the community, forming relationships, and having purposeful occupation within the SCALE model.
* Ensure effective communication pathways exist, acting as a role model for others to positively reflect the values of the organisation.
* Work across Ardenleigh and Dawn House to strengthen relationships ensuring effective discharge pathways.
* Collaboratively collaborate with external partners in planning interventions, assessments, and joint working with ANAWIM staff and the FIRST and inpatient OT team.
* Maintain accurate clinical records and appropriate data.
* Promote OT services and support visitors and service users to understand their treatment.
* Contribute to assessments through observation, communication and accurate record keeping.
