About this opportunity The Service Navigator will develop connections between GP's, LACS, program managers and other services, to ensure they have a clear understanding of the psychosocial support programs and opportunities available in the community and within Wellways.
These connections will be shared with participants, families and Recovery and Rehabilitation workers to promote accessible services and support opportunities that can assist an individual's recovery journey.
The Service Navigator will work in conjunction with participants to address key areas that support decision making, social skills, independent living skills, community access, healthy lifestyle, self-identity, self-esteem, and resilience.
A key outcome will be supporting participants to identify and nurture natural supports that sustain recovery.
