Mental Health Support Group Coordinator
3 days ago
At Lives Lived Well, we've been treating and supporting young people and adults whose lives are affected by alcohol and other drugs for over 50 years. We also support people with mental health and gambling concerns and those transitioning from correctional centres.
About the Program
Treatment services for people with mental health concerns in Residential Aged Care Facilities aims to enhance the quality of life for older people through improved access to primary mental health services within a person-centred stepped care approach.
This program will deliver in-reach health care services to residents in aged care facilities. Our services will target residents with a diagnosed mental illness or those who are assessed as at risk of mental illness. This is a hugely rewarding role where you can make a visible, lasting impact and improve someone's quality of life.
The program is led by a compassionate, curious, and non-judgmental leader, passionate about supporting staff and asking, 'why not, and what's next?'
Your Opportunity
As a Residential Aged Care Group Facilitator, you will complete a brief intake and assessment process to determine the residents' suitability to participate in our groups and or recommend referral for those with higher support needs.
This is an autonomous role that involves regular travel within the region. You will travel to several aged care facilities and regularly run groups of 2 - 3 hours duration. The groups will cover topics such as understanding mental health, reframing strategies, mindfulness and enhancing social connectedness. The groups are grounded in acceptance and commitment therapy as a brief intervention, to support residents in managing mental wellbeing independently and improve social, emotional and psychological health.
Responsibilities
- Confidently facilitate training and group information sessions to participants.
- Engage with local providers, developing positive relationships, and building a local presence.
- Collect and administer outcome measures and provide feedback for continuous program improvement.
- Build rapport with participants, linking them to appropriate information and referral options where appropriate.Be the face of LLW and the program when visiting residential aged care facilities.
You will have the support of an experienced Team Leader, and Allied Health Practitioner - Social Worker in assessing referrals and receive further support within our existing multidisciplinary team.
