The Realising Recovery learning materials have been designed to support mental health workers to develop their recovery focused practice. They build on The 10 Essential Shared Capabilities (Scotland) learning materials and are designed to provide further learning to enable mental health workers to work alongside service users as they create their own recovery journeys. The learning materials will also be useful for mental health service users and carers either in their role as trainers involved in delivering the learning or as learners exploring and developing their understanding of recovery focused practice and what they can expect from mental health workers and services. The learning materials aim to enable workers to make changes in their practice and support change by presenting key topic areas in relation to recovery and practical guidance to help workers develop new roles, relationships and ways of working with service users and wider communities. The learning materials aim to be practical and action focused and provide links to wider reading and resources. The six modules cover understanding recovery, using self to develop recovery focused practice, enabling self-direction, providing person-centred support, sharing responsibility for risk and risk-taking, and connecting with communities.
