Description
We are currently recruiting for a Unplanned Release Co-ordinator to work within a team providing recovery orientated Health and Wellbeing Services to service users aged 18 and over at HMP Brixton.
HMP Brixton is a dynamic and forward-thinking prison which accommodates a diverse and complex population of individuals both sentenced and/or remanded from courts across London. Services are designed to deliver psychosocial interventions and accredited group programmes.
This role aims to offer transitional support (working both inside and outside of the prison setting) for those engaged with the Substance Misuse team at HMP Brixton. In this role you will be expected to support service users and make responsive arrangements on release ensuring effective continuity of care.
As unplanned release coordinator you will focus on enabling continuity of care specifically for service users upon ‘unplanned release’. This definition includes both releases with short term notification (recalls/bail release/HDC etc.) and those attending court who are discharged on the day.
