Recovery Navigator

Humankind is proud to be a provider within Reconnected to Health, delivering a drug and alcohol recovery service across all seven North East Prison establishments. Led by Spectrum Community Health CIC, Reconnected to Health is delivered by Spectrum, Tees, Esk and Wear Valleys NHS Trust and Humankind to provide holistic, collaborative care to men and women in custody across the region. We provide drug and alcohol recovery co-ordination, psychosocial interventions, and continuity of care planning within the integrated prison healthcare system. We work with community services throughout the country and have excellent links with all Northeast community drug and alcohol services.

Reconnected to Health offers support to residents within a secure setting to recover from drug and/or alcohol dependence.

The aim of the Healthcare Navigation Reconnect Service is to reduce health related barriers that directly impact on the individual's engagement prior to, and upon leaving prison; to reduce health inequalities and address the health and wellbeing of low to medium risk of offending behaviours. As an Reconnect Navigator, you will promote continuity of care support for those leaving prison, encouraging positive and sustainable connections for service users within their local communities and building recovery capital assets.

Humankind is a vibrant and growing charity with over 30 years' experience working with individuals, families and communities affected by health and social inequalities across the country with a focus on improving people's wellbeing. Humankind is one of England's most successful home-grown charities. We have over 1,100 staff and around 100 volunteers providing services for over 20,000 people. Our specialist services include substance use, clinical, employment training and education, housing services, housing support and health, young people, and families' services.
