Experience ways you can really get to know someone “over coffee” instead of “over a form.” Explore ideas on how to soften the institutional assessment process. Be exposed to “I care planning,” narrative care planning and visual information profiles – the latest and best in changed care practices. Determining “highest practicable level of well-being” is explained, as well as a review of the federal assessment and care planning requirements. Relearn how to put the person in the “driver’s seat of their lives.”

Artifacts of Culture Change is a culture change measurement tool designed to help organizations document the concrete changes they are making to “create home” and find out how “culture changed” they’ve become. Learn how to use the Artifacts tool, and become aware of culture change practices that may not have been considered as you shift your focus from “institutional” to “individualized.” Although this tool was developed for nursing homes, all settings can get great ideas to help reframe their focus on person-centered life!
