Recommendations for Improving PDD's Approach to Determining Individual Support Needs

  • Strengthen the use of multiple mechanisms for supporting the approach of person/family driven planning.
  • Create a network of resources available across the province so that people with disabilities, their families and support workers have access to information on inclusion, community living, planning, new ideas and approaches, disability information, etc.
     
  • Support all stakeholders to understand and use values-based decision making processes, that are consistent with the approved principles and reflect the values of the Community Governance Act.
     
  • Build partnerships with stakeholders to deepen understanding and broaden considerations for meeting the individual's support needs.
     
  • Establish collaboration and co-operation within the government and other government boards to address how to more effectively meet individual support needs, in alignment with PDD principles.
