This years conference is scheduled for May 30th and is titled Health & Well-Being in Developmental Disabilities. For further information about this workshop go to copcs.ca and click on Workshop Registration Form. In addition to the training mandates, COPCS will work together with CLBC towards transferring a portion of the de- livery of yearly standards training required of all CLBC home share providers. By implementing additional training and learning opportunities we will improve service to the adults we assist and increase education and awareness in the unique challenges Home Share Providers encounter. COPCS has worked to develop our Strategic Plan over the past six months expressing what we want to accomplish over the coming two years. We are run by a volunteer board and one paid part-time Administrator. Over the past year board members have contributed roughly 500 volunteer hours. For the future growth and direction of the society, the board is seeking volunteers to join our board or various committees. If you can donate four hours a month, please let us know by , phone or in person. I look forward to including the many diverse skills and ideas our membership holds and hope to hear from you soon.

3 3 Page 3 CENTRAL OKANAGAN PROFESSIONAL CAREGIVERS SOCIETY CLBC NEWS Quality Service Office News: Welcome to Toni Jestadt who joined the QS team as an analyst in January. Changes to Individual Contribution to home share for individuals over 65 years old: Individuals who are over 65 receive Old Age Security Pension (OAS) and Guaranteed Income Supplement (GIS) funding from Service Canada. Previously, individuals paid $ to the home share directly for room and board. Effective April 1, 2014, individuals over 65 will pay $ to the home share directly for room and board. If you are a home share that supports an individual who is over 65, your CLBC contract will be modified accordingly to balance the change. Please do not hesitate to contact your liaison quality service analyst if you have any questions or concerns at Health Services For Community Living (HSCL) HSCL provides non emergency nursing and rehabilitation services to adults with developmental disabilities. In addition, support, education and training about health care issues are available for individuals served and the people in their circle of support, such as family members and home share providers. Services HSCL provide: dental, speech & language, physiotherapy, occupational therapy, nursing and a dietician. HSCL services are available to any person 19 years of age or older who are eligible for services to people with developmental disabilities under the guidelines of CLBC. The majority of referrals come through CLBC but anyone can refer a person to HSCL as long as they are eligible under the CLBC guidelines. This includes individuals requiring service, their family members or home share providers. INCLUDE ME! - CLBC INTERIOR UPDATE Include Me! Provides individuals with developmental disabilities an opportunity to voice how they feel about their own quality of life by completing a brief survey about the things that are important to them. The data collected helps service providers look at and make changes in how they do things and identify areas that need improvement.

The process starts with an initial meeting with their Home Share Coordinator to discuss the requirements and expectations of Home Share and Respite Providers. The next step is their application process where you will be asked to provide your qualifications and references, including doctor s certification, driver s abstract and a successful RCMP criminal records check. After all reference checks have been completed, a Home Study is done, which includes all members of the household. Depending upon the circumstances, this may be done in one visit, or a number of visits over a specific time period. Once a new Home Share Provider is approved, KCDS will contact CLBC and advise them of the home dynamics to assist in finding a suitable match to ensure the success and longevity of the placement.
