**Peer Support Worker (Clinical Focus) Job Description**

NISA is a peer-led organization tasked with providing mental health recovery services in Sudbury, Ontario. All staff self-identify as having had some lived experience of mental health challenges and are dedicated to making a difference in the lives of their peers. We’ve been operating in Sudbury since 1998 with the motto _Being, Belonging, Becoming_. In our programs, peers can **be** who they are without judgement or discrimination; they take part in a community of peers in a space where they **belong**; and our aim is to foster recovery and personal growth so that individuals can define and **become** who they want to be. We acknowledge the value and expertise that comes from personal lived experiences, and stive to provide a space free of discrimination, stigma, and exclusion in all forms.

Our Leadership Team focuses on supporting NISA’s core values and culture, as well as accountability, dedication to ensuring quality services, providing supportive supervision, and advocating for peer voices in the mental health sector. Specifically, supportive supervision is based on mutual respect, strength-based, commitment to ongoing learning, self-awareness, integrity, effective communication, trusting relationships/transparency, autonomy with accountability, and personal growth.

The Peer Support Worker is responsible for delivering peer support and recovery services to peers or members of the community in clinical settings. These workers go out in the community to support peers as part of teams embedded at HSN. We currently have teams in two different units within the hospital, as well as consultants that work closely with HSN’s leaders. On a daily basis, workers may provide peer support one-to-one, prepare and deliver group-based programming, or attend meetings. As the front-line of NISA—and its face in the community—peer workers are also responsible for acting in accordance with the core values of peer support, of modelling recovery oriented and trauma informed practices, and for being respectful and professional in all they do.

**Work Responsibilities**:

- Provide one-to-one assistance and support to peers within clinical settings.
- Prepare and facilitate structured and unstructured mental health groups in clinical settings (where appropriate).
- Help peers navigate hospital programs and understand what to expect.
- Provide referral to appropriate services within the community.
- Assist peers in accessing and obtaining other community resources where needed.
- Help the Program Manager in creating programming plans and calendars.
- Work with Leadership and partners to adapt programming to the needs of service users.
- Assist peers in identifying their personal recovery goals and setting objectives to reach those goals.
- Recognize and respect recovery-based philosophy including individual’s right to self-determination and autonomy.
- Assist with and participate in regular team meetings.
- Advocate with and for peers to ensure adequate resources are available.
- Ensure peers have awareness and understanding of rights relating to services.
- Ensure individuals’ contacts are recorded appropriately and in a timely manner utilizing our internal database.
- Ensure that monthly, annual and other required reporting documentation are completed.
- Provide assistance to Programs Manager with community networking and additional outreach or educational tasks.
- Participate in regularly scheduled meetings with the Program Manager.
- Pro
