HIRING PERSONAL SUPPORT WORKERS: FIRST STEPS
Presented by Judith McGill
Having some form of Individualized Funding (including SSAH and PASSPORTS) can be extremely helpful in building a meaningful life for yourself or family member. Personal Support Workers are critical to making many of the “good things” happen in people’s lives. Before starting the interview process with potential Personal Support Workers, it is important to consider not only what is needed in a Personal Support Worker, but also what role he or she will play.
This one-day reflective workshop delves into what you need to do prior to interviewing. Topics covered will include:
- Laying a strong foundation before hiring
- Finding the right match
- Clarifying a Personal Support Worker’s role
- What qualities you are looking for in a Personal Support Worker
- Evaluating your recruitment and retention strategies
Judith has had extensive experience in helping people and their families hire and retain Personal Support Workers over the past 20 years. She has written a book aimed at families that will be published in 2019 entitled “Taking charge of Hiring Personal Support Workers”
Judith McGill is a powerful adult educator and social innovator. She has been writing and speaking about leisure identities and community building for over thirty years. Her provocative style and inspirational ideas have transformed the lives of many of the people that she has come into contact with. Judith is the Executive Director of Families for a Secure Future, an Independent Facilitation Organization.

Introductory Workshops on CareMapping with Rajiv Mehta
A Marsha Forest Centre Thought Leadership Event
Discover how CareMaps can help you understand and improve your family’s experience.
TWO Sessions: 2:00-4:00pm and 6:00-8:00 pm
Limited to 25 persons per session
You’re invited to learn about the concept of Care-Maps — a drawing of the people and services in your care network. CareMaps can help you better understand and manage your own situation, identify missing resources, and describe your needs to others.
In this two-hour workshop, you will learn to create and use your own CareMap.
An Atlas CareMap is a diagram of a person’s care ecosys-tem, showing who cares for whom, and how. Many people have found it easy to learn to draw and use CareMaps, and valuable to do so. The process of thinking about and drawing a CareMap has helped people to more clearly see and to better understand their existing care ecosystem. For many, this has led to action and/or changes in perception resulting in stronger ecosystems, better care and more confidence in managing their care situation.

PATH & MAPS Course – October 16-18, 2018 – Toronto
Person-Centred Ways to Build Community
This course will include live demonstrations of PATH & MAPS, hand on learning, as well as team practice.
There will be opportunities for in-depth conversations on the framework and thinking underneath PATH & MAPS.
This will strengthen facilitators in their work.
We will explore facilitation practice and values more deeply.
We believe the course will be particularly useful for folks who will be mentoring/coaching other facilitators.
We are trying to keep the group small, with a proposed limit of 30 people.
