The summer months bring increased opportunities for individuals receiving services to participate in activities and outings and to become more involved in their local communities.
During this episode, we sit down with Erin Pinchbeck and Carisa Huble from Northern Rivers Family of Services to discuss the benefits of community outings, as well as best practices for planning and executing outings to ensure they are safe and inclusive.
We'll explore how factors such as navigating social expectations and maintaining appropriate supervision can contribute to an increase in incidents. We also discuss a compelling case study from the Justice Center: a lake outing where a breakdown in staff supervision and communication resulted in an individual being left unsupervised. We'll dissect what went wrong and examine how learning from these incidents can create meaningful change in your program's safety protocols.
