RECRUITMENT ALERT: Psychosocial Practitioner (Substance Misuse) Bank Workers

Agencia is hosting the “Active Change Community Recovery Service” for registered drug users in North Lincolnshire. Combining clinical and psychosocial interventions, this new service went live at the beginning of April 2014.

The Agencia service meets the prescribing needs of registered users and a wide range of support will help them to build recovery into all aspects of their lives.  The role of Agencia includes providing constructive challenge to individual service users, and the partnership of organisations involved, in order to maximise recovery outcomes. Effective partnership with a broad range of support organisations is therefore key to our approach.

Against this backdrop, we wish to establish a bank of PT Psychosocial Practitioners (substance misuse) to provide flexible resource and cover for our service delivery team.

You will:

• Be available from a bank of practitioners to provide flexible resource and cover when required.
• Encourage ambition, motivate and support individuals to become free from their problematic drug use.
• Provide a range of services for people with primary problematic opiate use (other substances may be involved) and for General Practitioners involved in their treatment.
• Facilitate harm reduction with this client group.

The post will be based at our Scunthorpe office.
