Hi all, an awesome site, thank you for all the wonderful sharing of ideas. I am wondering if anyone has a list of holistically based questions / prompts that could be used to help Residents think about goals/plans they might like to set for themselves and the support they might need. I have a form where residents are invited to participate in plans around Communicating, Family, physical, emotional, sexual, etc. Often they are stumped and I don’t have any supporting documentation to help me spark their ideas for themselves. Many thamks

Hi Carol, I love the empowerment that your goal setting plan offers. Have you offered a goal setting course? It may be helpful to offer an educational piece before handing out the documents. While I don't have any specific holistic questions to offer I would suggest starting a less informal conversation with each resident to better understand their interest and preferences and build up to setting a goal. I would love to hear how this progresses for you!
