We warmly encourage people from Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander communities and people with a lived experience of mental health and disability to apply.
This is a rare opportunity you will want to be part of. The Prevention and Recovery Care (PARC) program is a collaborative service between Wellways and St Vincent's Health. North Fitzroy PARC is located in a community setting and provides an option for people who are becoming unwell, or need a short period of additional support to strengthen their gains from spending time in an inpatient setting. Our multidisciplinary recovery teams are creative, motivated and focused on ensuring positive experiences for participants and their loved ones.
The Senior Recovery Worker plays a vital role in working with participants of the program as well as providing senior support to the team and the Program Manager, including direct recovery work with participants, operational support and improvements to support the ongoing quality of the program.
PARCs operate 24/7 on a rotating roster. Flexibility in availability and willingness to work sleepover shifts is essential for this position. Penalty rates apply for relevant hours.
PARC is a step up, step down short stay residence that provides clinical and psychosocial support to participants, to prevent the need for hospitalisation or after an inpatient stay to support ongoing recovery.
All our recovery services value cultural diversity, support and create opportunities for recovery, value peer participation and leadership and are underpinned by evidence-based best practice.
For a confidential discussion about the role, please contact Erin Saar, Program Manager - North Fitzroy PARC at [email protected] using the subject line: Senior Recovery Worker enquiry via EthicalJobs.
