- Asking “what matters to you today?” and adapting routines to resident preferences, language, faith/spiritual needs, and cultural practices (within safety requirements).
- Communicating respectfully with residents and families, recognizing diverse family structures, identities, and traditions.
Maintain professional communication with residents, families, and co-workers; demonstrate kindness and the ability to “change the moment positively” for residents.
Follow routine practices and additional precautions as required (hand hygiene, PPE use, cleaning/disinfection steps within role, respiratory etiquette) and participate in outbreak measures (cohorting workflows, signage adherence, reporting symptoms immediately).
Work safely and follow all health and safety procedures, including safe lifting/mobility practices, PPE, and reporting hazards, incidents, or injuries promptly.
Participate in required training (e.g., WHMIS, safe lifting, violence/harassment prevention, outbreak/IPAC training) and follow supervisor directions for safe work.
Help maintain a safe environment for residents, visitors, and staff by identifying risks early and escalating concerns.
Follow the Home’s emergency procedures (e.g., fire, evacuation, missing resident, power disruption, outbreak surge workflows) and participate in drills and emergency preparedness education as required.
