These two position will be based within the Peninsula Health Team across either the Hastings or Frankston Orange Door sites (applicants will be based at one site). Peninsula Health holds the specialist portfolio for people who use violence. The Multi-Agency Risk Assessment and Management (MARAM) Practice Guides and assessment tools for professionals working with adults who use family violence are utilised to undertake this practice.
Together with your Integrated Team, the role of the Peninsula Health Orange Door Family Violence Intake and Assessment Practitioner is to provide comprehensive risk management and safety planning to clients who access the Orange Door. This is achieved through the delivery of screening and triage, assessment, crisis response and service planning.

- Women, children and young people and families experiencing family violence
- People who use violence
- Families in need of support with the care, development, and well-being of children

The Hubs work directly with PUVs onsite, via phone and out-posting at partner organisations. A key function of this role is to assess the risk posed by PUVs and determine the appropriate service provision, with a focus on referrals to family violence prevention programs (Men’s Behaviour Change Program) and other referrals as identified to address psychosocial needs.
