Beccarian Correctional Care

At Beccarian Correctional Care, we prioritize individuals' well-being and long-term recovery from addiction through a holistic, person-centered approach.

We collaborate with government officials and stakeholders to develop customized strategies grounded in recovery-oriented care principles. We drive positive change in creating pathways of recovery from addiction.

We are currently seeking a Behavioural Health Navigator (BHN) to join our team in the Therapeutic Living Unit (TLU) in Fort Saskatchewan. TLUs are unique Therapeutic Communities within correctional settings, providing inmates (members) an opportunity for evidence-based care for substance use disorders. As a BHN, you play a crucial role in supporting the "community as method" process. Working alongside TLU members, you participate equally in various activities like recreation, and chores, emphasizing membership and modeling behavior.

All staff actively participate in the community, ensuring a safe and positive environment. Through sharing personal experiences with members, you create connections while maintaining professional boundaries and employing 'Rational Authority' in Therapeutic Community language. This collaborative and objective facilitation is what drives meaningful change for TLU members, making the community the major catalyst for transformation.

Reporting to the TLU Lead, the BHN's primary role is to mentor and engage members in groups to address substance misuse and mental health challenges.

- Contribute to the development and review of members' treatment plans.
- Maintain confidentiality, ethical boundaries, and professional conduct with TLU members.
- Offer and receive constructive feedback to promote personal growth and a healthy TLU environment.
- Actively participate as a valued TLU member, attending groups, supervising and training new staff, and conducting workshops as directed.
- Assess and provide feedback on the TLU environment to increase member awareness and community function.
- Serve as a positive role model in behavior, communication, attitude, and adherence to rules.
- Contribute to the development, implementation, and evaluation of the service model and quality improvement processes.
- Support learning experiences for conflict resolution, problem-solving, decision-making, coping under stress, and pro-social behaviors.
- Respond to crisis and urgent situations.
- Liaise with family members, correctional, and community agencies as directed.
- Willingness to work flexible hours, including evenings, weekends & holidays.
