Are you seeking an exciting community role supporting people leaving prison with their health care needs? The Criminal Justice Liaison & Diversion Service has a vacancy for a Mental Health Practitioner in it's developing Reconnect Service. The Reconnect Service is a care after custody service which aims to increase the access and uptake of community healthcare or relevant support services for individuals who have significant health needs upon release from HMP Guys Marsh, Portland and HMP The Verne and ensure safe transition to community-based healthcare. The Reconnect service supports individuals with a varied range of health vulnerabilities and risk, including mental health, learning disability, substance misuse, and those that are end of licence or may require continued supervision in the community under Dorset Probation. Working closely with prison colleagues from Custody Health Care, the Offender Management Unit and the Resettlement Team, you will attend prison discharge meetings, carry out comprehensive assessments both within the prison and the community to identify the needs of the individual and plan the care of those being released. You will also be working with a range of health, social and forensic services in the community such as Dorset Probation and the local authority to identify and assess individuals post release, or those that may be returning to Dorset but released from a prison in another county. Support Workers work with clients for up to 6 months, building a trusting therapeutic relationship to support their transition from prison to community health care and encourage engagement with services.
