Having support to make our own decisions is a human right. Most of us seek support from other people for many of the decisions we make.
Supported decision making works most effectively when decision supporters take a long-term approach to developing their belief, knowledge and skills, especially when they are providing support in challenging contexts.
Are you concerned about the serious consequences of decisions for the person you support?
Do you want greater confidence approaching decision making when it involves risk?
The workshop will:
explain what supported decision making is and why it is important
clarify the important role of decision supporters and
explore a range of complex decision-making scenarios to show how using a supported decision making process can increase the confidence of supporters assisting decision making in challenging contexts.
This is a free event, with a light lunch provided.
