An exciting opportunity has arisen to join our new Bristol service, Horizons.

This is a vibrant new partnership delivering substance use treatment and recovery services across Bristol.

Turning Point has partnered with Bristol Drugs Project to ensure continued local expertise whilst championing a fresh approach, alongside seven other local and national providers: The Nelson Trust, Hawkspring, One 25, Southmead Development Trust, Southmead Project, Wellspring Settlement, and Release.

Our partnership draws upon decades of experience delivering substance use services in Bristol and nationally, with specialist knowledge around diverse local communities, and the community insight which only comes from hyper-localism.

You will have opportunities to progress your career with a structured learning journey and clearly defined career pathways that will enable you to achieve your long-term goals and work to your strengths.

As Specialist Substance Use Nurse, you’ll have the chance to make a real difference to the lives of the people we support who are experiencing difficulties from drug and alcohol use, working with them to develop the personal, flexible and realistic support packages they need to support their recovery.

We recognise the diversity of our service users and will accept applicants from Registered Mental Health Nurses and Registered General Nurses who have a passion for working in this field and recognise the positive impact nursing can provide, supporting a group of individuals often stigmatised and marginalised.

Passionate about people, you’ll enjoy the opportunity and support to enhance your own life and career too, as you gain the experience and training you need to progress within Turning Point.
