Description
Do you have direct, first-hand substantive experience of complex emotional needs, often associated with a diagnosis of 'personality disorder'?


If so, an exciting opportunity has arisen for a
Peer Support Worker to work in 'personality disorder' services at Nottinghamshire Healthcare Trust.


We are looking for an enthusiastic and motivated individual who will be able to share wisdom, from their own experiences, to inspire hope and belief that recovery is possible in others.


The role will involve working collaboratively with other professionals, to assist in improving the wellbeing of the people that use 'personality disorder' services.

This will be achieved by supporting patients directly, by sharing experiences and engaging in practical activities to enable them to feel in control of their lives and achieve their recovery goals.

The role will also involve contributing to supporting the understanding of peer work, and developing and maintaining relationships with nursing staff, across several Local Mental Health Teams throughout the Nottinghamshire area.


This job can be emotionally challenging at times, but the successful applicants will receive support, guidance and training from colleagues within the 'personality disorder' team and the wider organisation.
