Professional Development For
Retirement And Long-Term Care
Staff And Leadership
Since 1994, we have
been presenting workshops, seminars and keynote and plenary presentations to a
wide clientele that have included retirement and long-term care homes.
Additionally, we’ve presented motivational
presentations to your volunteers at your volunteer recognition events. Training
has been presented often in the form of in-services to both staff and
leadership.
Making A Difference
Everyday!
(Three Part In-service
Series - Positive Spirit / Attitude)
The series of in-services will emphasize that all
staff should make it their service and team / workplace mission to be a daily
“difference maker”. Participants will
discover that they really have the power to make a positive contribution
everyday and in doing so…build a healthy, supportive and positive workplace. We
place an emphasis on creating a “resident centered” program in which the result
of a team based work environment ensures the happiness and support the
residents have earned.
Each module answers the challenge of “ What can we do
together collaboratively to make a real difference in the lives of our
residents and build a warm, mutually supportive / appreciative workplace?”
Module One
Theme: You Have The Power To Make The
Difference
The first module exams how personal attitude is a
personal choice …so choose an attitude
that is positive, adaptable, cooperative, collaborative, kind and sensitive
…and become a real contributor to your home facility.
Module Two
Theme: Working Together To Create A Great
T.E.A.M.
The second module suggest that great teams are
comprised of great people who by their daily example and positive
behaviours create a great team environment.
Module Three
Theme: Creating A Caring, Supportive Workplace
The final module suggests that we achieve so much more
when we work together to create a great home environment for our residents.

Leadership is a workplace privilege that when it is
presented fairly, equitably and with respect can build and strengthen
relationships. This workshop outlines how to step into the roll of leading with
confidence and success. An excellent workshop for those who have taken on a
role as a supervisor or manager or as a designate when the supervisor or
manager are away.
Workplace Personalities And How To Work With Them
Every workplace has its daily challenges and often we
discover that our co-workers will have different personalities and approaches
to their work and co-workers. Its a unique world and we are all unique bringing
with unique perspectives, lifetime experiences, emotional developments and
societal / familiar backgrounds. This workshop examines the core different
human personalities and how to effectively work with and collaborate with them.

of leadership to...

causes of misunderstandings

of emotions on judgment and interpretation

"foot in mouth" disease i.e.. Speaking without forethought

To delegate
responsibility with respect builds great people and great teams.

will define what delegation really means and how
it frees managers to
manager and empowers staff with valuable workplace
skills. We'll examine
the appropriate attitude and approach to delegating
and how to ensure we
clearly define the tasks required.

they all relate to simplicity and common sense of the “choices”. Laced with
humour, this presentation is sure to please and it’s a great way to show your
volunteers you care and that you appreciate them.
Believe And Succeed: How Faith Shapes Our Destiny!

home is planning in-services, leadership / supervisory workshops or a program
of lunch and learns for staff / management or looking to develop a professional
development calendar throughout the year, then I’d be very pleased to hear from
