2 weeks ago


Ottawa, Canada Centretown Community Health Centre Full time

**Summary**

The LESA program provides counselling services for older adults (55+) who are seeking support for issues related to alcohol dependence, drug addiction and/or problem gambling. The LESA Bilingual Intake /Case Manager is often the first point of access for individuals into the LESA program. The incumbent follows up with referrals to the LESA program and completes an intake and assessment that captures the current issues experienced by the individual and explores their hopes and goals for making change. As part of the assessment process the incumbent will also assess the need for case management/care coordination support for vulnerable older adults who may need assistance with one or more areas of their life (i.e. housing support/ health system navigation etc.). The Worker will support the individual in collaborative care planning and ensure that this plan is communicated to allied health providers and/or other supports.

The LESA Intake /Case Manager is also responsible for managing the LESA wait list and supporting individuals, when applicable, through the provision of case management supports or through the provision of psycho-educational groups. Supporting and engaging individuals into the program by assessing and supporting motivation for change is a key element to this position, as is collaboration with allied health professionals and other community supports. Strong assessment skills in mental health and addictions, along with an understanding of best practices in integrated care for older adults, is required for this position. Also important is the ability to inform and refer clients to resources when clients do not meet the eligibility criteria for our program.
