About the Opportunity

The Nova Scotia Health and IWK Health organization is seeking a skilled Health Care Social Worker to join our team. As a member of our interdisciplinary healthcare team, you will provide collaborative, holistic care on the primary to quaternary care continuum.

Social Workers are primarily concerned with the relationships between people and their environments, which are integral to psychosocial, emotional, and spiritual wellbeing. The social determinants of health are embedded in social work theory and practice and are the focus for the dynamic and interactive process of engagement, assessment, planning, intervention, and evaluation.

We are looking for a candidate with a Bachelor's degree in Social Work from a recognized university, current registration with the Nova Scotia College of Social Workers, and two years of post-BSW related clinical experience. Knowledge and understanding of the Diagnostic & Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders are also required.

The ideal candidate will have previous experience working in adult community mental health, demonstrated ability to use a client-/family-centered approach, familiarity with various evidence-based treatment approaches for use with people with severe and persistent mental illness, and experience with group facilitation.

This is a long-assignment part-position, with 56.25 hours bi-weekly. Shifts will include weekdays, weekends, and holidays, and travel to other sites may be required.

The successful candidate will be eligible for our benefits package, which includes health, dental, travel, long-term disability, and life insurance coverage, as well as a defined benefit pension plan.
