COMMUNITY LIVING
ABOUT
The LIVING Program at Quest helps develop and foster relationships within the home and community. This program works in collaboration with individuals, families, and community members to provide quality supports to people in their own home or a shared home.
The LIVING Program offers supports to over 60 people in a variety of settings which include, 1:1 complex settings, shared 24/7 staffed arrangements, as well as roommate companion arrangements.
GOAL
Goal 2024-25: Realigning processes to create an engaged and empowered workforce. After heavy discussion, evaluation, and innovation, with the help of everyone involved in the LIVING department, we were successful in mapping out this goal. This will be a 2-year goal and will be broken down as follows:
Year 1: Re-aligning processes, which will focus on collecting feedback on current processes and understanding how we can modify and enhance these current processes.
Year 2: Creating an engaged and empowered workforce, which will focus on rolling out initiatives modified in the first year and creating new innovative approaches.
SEASONAL
Tis the season for cooler temperatures and a change of pace for the Quest community.
Here are a few reminders and tips to navigate the winter months:
-
Ensure everyone has adequate winter gear (mitts, toque, jacket and warm boots). If they don’t, reach out to the Supervisor to request whatever is needed.
-
Ensure the house is prepared with a shovel and ice melt to keep walkways clear.
-
Get creative and find ways to keep yourself active. Some ideas are going swimming, walking the track at the YMCA or stretching at home.
We hope you all stay warm this wintery season!!
