Building relationships with the individuals we support and the team members with whom we work is at the heart of everything we do. Recently, Program Supervisor, Michelle Scherr, and Direct Support Professional, Garrett Common, did a team building activity to get to know one another better. The medium, a bag of M&Ms. There was a “get to know you” type of question for every M&M color and team members answered the following questions based on what they received:

Tell us:
RED- Something about yesterday
ORANGE- Something you do well
YELLOW- Something about your childhood
BLUE- Something you learned last week
BROWN- Something you can’t live without
GREEN- Something you watch/listen to

What a fun way to break the ice and build up your team! Thanks for sharing this with us, Michelle & Garrett!

Meet Direct Support Professional, Richard North. Richard provides direct assistance to the individuals we serve at REM-North Dakota Minot. Specifically, one of the individuals he supports has made noticeable progress with his mobility. The individual was struggling with mobility and a decrease in flexibility. Richard knew how important staying mobile was for this individual’s life and how hard it was dealing with the independence he had lost. After many trips to our local YMCA, and Richard providing education on how to use each machine, the individual started making noticeable progress. He was able to dress himself, get out of bed independently, his walking pace has increased and his balance is much better. Thank you going above and beyond and making an impact on the people we support. We are so happy to have you on our team!
