Lincolnshire Partnership NHS Foundation Trust Resettlement Worker
The closing date is 17 September 2026
Job summary
Due to expansion, a rewarding opportunity has arisen where we are looking for a reliable, organised and enthusiastic person with a strong work ethic to join our multidisciplinary team in Children & Young People (CYP) Services for 37.5 hours per week, working at the new Millenium Lodge Secure Children's Home on the outskirts of Sleaford.
The team provide a full range of healthcare to vulnerable children and young people (CYP) aged between 10 and 18 who are resident in the secure children's home. Resettlement can present a challenge for CYP leaving the secure estate, with many CYP expressing significant anxiety regarding the transition process. There are a variety of factors that may make the transition difficult for both the young person and the destination they are transitioning to.
You will support a CYP through this journey by individual work, group work and liaison with families/carers. You will be integral to supporting constructive resettlement to promote change and prevent relapse. You will encourage and promote positive leisure time and create individual personal support plans with young people.
The principle of the child first and the offender second approach is used throughout the team alongside the trauma-informed delivery of care due to the CYP having often experienced many adverse childhood events and trauma.
