More feedback on Michael Smull coaches training:
We discussed how to involve more people from vendors, families, service coordinators, clinical team at our next trainings. At this time we have not had opportunity to debrief from this week to set the next step. We should have more information by next meeting with follow-up. We discussed the need to get up to speed with our own local trainers so that we can keep us heading along the path more consistently and not getting stuck in anyone place to long. We discussed how to be held accountable for the learning of the tools and getting proficient at using them.
Next learning community meeting:

Path review:
Did not have time to review
Sharing tools used from the last month:
We passed around an end-of-life manual that has person centered thinking tools infused within the document. Looked over some scenarios that can be used along with the PCT tools to assist us with aging and end-of-life wishes.
Review actions:
This meeting went long and the discussion was extensive on our feedback with the training over the last three days. We did not have time to review any action items. So I will make it a priority to have some information at the next meeting of our next steps.
Frances reported that families wanted training in the area of technology and Augmentative and Facilitative communication training. She would like the VLF to co-sponsor the training with them in the near future.
Closing round:
To use the communication chart instead of the traditional ABC behavior record. (Alana)
We did not have time to go around the room but since I am drafting these minutes I will commit sharing and doing an exercise next month.

Thanks for the update Alana.
This dad, for my son, would like to see opportunities for parents and families to work WITH everyone directly and indirectly trying to help our kids.
It is exhausting, every day to have to prove their existence and worthiness to be served/helped.
Looking to that future in which all of us mutually benefit and help one another....becuase that is who we are and what we do.
Thanks go to Joe. I just posted, but he took the minutes.
