I would love to hear about your progress as you set up this important offering.  I am curious, I am learning about CLCP. Have you integrated the principles into the mission of the home and how it would be run? I like this statement: "to promote, facilitate, and encourage the care and support of geriatric population." It brings up so much possibility for me in how you would do this. And how you might engage the strengths in the community, and strengths of the residents in creating this home environment to facilitate this caring and support. I see you bring this in in this statement: "To collaborate with community groups and volunteers concerning activities for residents, following the Community LIfe Competence Process." There is tremendous power in this statement and I would love to hear how this grows, what this looks like. 

One thing we are focusing on in our work is in viewing and engaging the strengths of our elder population, which would include the residents as part of creating the type of environment/community that is also serving them. I am curious if this is similar in your project? 


GOOD luck! 

HI Kristin,

When I posted this out of necessity as I thought I was treading into what I had not done before, and so, I wanted to know if some one out there was having some experiences that I could learn from. Therefore, your reply is most precious in that not only I know I am having some pioneers who could lead me on, but also they are ahead of me.

As to the progress,  Champion Care Homes has just got the land registered, and transferred the titled deeds to the Company's name. The Company is in the process of applying for permission to build a worker's shed. Accordingly, it will be a couple of years before we get our elderly residents.

Right now we have in employment, apart from myself, an accountant and a gardener. The TOR for the accountant too includes all the elements of CLCP that I could include from that of the Administrator. My assumption is that once I get the staff trained in CLCP, making it a part of the system, than CLCP should be sustainable even in my absence.

The progress on the Administrator is that he is joining in the first day of 2013, and only then we can have our first CLCP training for the Accountant, Administrator, Gardener, and myself. :-)

 Your work of "engaging the strengths of our elder population, which would include the residents as part of creating the type of environment/community that is also serving them" is exactly what I envision will happen in Champion Care Home for the Senior Citizens. Therefore, we can both learn from our experiences, and sharing of experiences, or lessons learnt.

What a lovely vision. I look forward to watching and hearing more as it unfolds! I really believe as we follow our dreams we create the future.
