Support Module for Management of Care Organisations
As a result of the UN Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities can be concluded that the care provision to persons with a disability need to be client centred. This means that the structure of the care organization, style of management, the culture of the organization and the competences of the care professionals need to be in line with this. In practise this is still, for different reasons, not often the situation. The European Commission has expressed that as a result of the Rights of Persons with a Disability the focus need to be on Independent Living and Inclusion in the Community (Commission Notice, November 2024).
The management of care organizations have also an important task to contribute to this. To create awareness is, specific for managers of care organizations, through the European Erasmus Plus Programme the training “Support Module for Management of Care Organizations” developed.
The training has an hands on approach in which proven theories and practical examples are used.
Subjects who are addressed are:
1. Human rights; rights of persons with a disability;
2. The necessity to change from supply – oriented care to demand – oriented support care;
3. The way in which care need to be organized and the consequences for the structure of the care organization, the style of management and the culture of the organization;
4. The role of the care professional;
5. The possibility to adapt care strategies;
6. The meaning of active (ongoing) participation in the community and in which way this can be realized and which organization and persons have to fulfil a role.
The Module can be seen as a basis from where further steps can be made to achieve inclusion and participation in the community.
The Module, which includes a Reader, Practical Manual and Power Points, is free accessible and can be downloaded, free of charge, from the website www.smmco.eu. The materials can be used for further developments of training and education.
Remarks and questions can be send to Michael Kamp,MCC through mkamp@ziggo.nl or info@SMMCO.eu
