As part of the Suicide Prevention team, the Health Coach will support people from the local community to improve how they manage their mental health and, in turn, their physical health. The successful candidate will be working with people who have attempted suicide as a result of a life event and whose mental and physical needs have been met via RDASH. This role will require the postholder to work closely with RDASH to ensure a seamless transition into the service for our clients.
By working with people one-on-one or in a group setting, you will help them develop the knowledge, skills, and confidence to change their behaviours, improving their overall quality of life, health, and well-being.
The role requires coaching skills, patience, and a compassionate approach to clients. The successful candidate must be able to show empathy to support people in identifying and fully achieving their individual goals. A person-centred approach is key to the service's success, and although the role will be challenging, it will also be gratifying.
We will support clients by providing them with friendly sources of information about well-being and prevention approaches. We will help people identify the broader issues that impact their health and well-being, such as debt, poor housing, unemployment, loneliness, and caring responsibilities.
