Recovery coaches from the Bila Community Group offer assistance to people who are struggling with psychosocial disabilities in order to help them live their lives to the fullest and more independently. People who work with recovery coaches learn how to handle the pressures of day-to-day life more effectively and regain control of their lives.
The recovery coaches help people build their capacity by showing them how to stay independent and learn new skills. They do this by using respectful relationships, good coaching, and their own life experiences.
People, their families, and other people who are a part of their psychosocial disability support networks, such as carers, therapists, and other support providers, work together with recovery coaches to design, plan and carry out a recovery plan. Recovery coaches may also be referred to as "recovery facilitators."
Psychosocial recovery coaches offer their knowledge and guidance to participants to help them get access to resources, keep their recovery going, and learn how to live on their own.
Here is a list of the most important things a recovery coach for the Bila Community Group needs to do:
1. Establishing a relationship with their clients that is both secure and conducive to recovery.
2. Providing assistance to participants in their participation in the National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS).
3. Coaching to improve recovery skills and build capacity—including decision-making, resiliency, motivation, and self-advocacy—are all areas that can be coached.
4. By participating in cooperative efforts with more comprehensive support systems.
5. Contributing to the conception, planning, and execution of recovery planning
