CUSTOM SERVICES & SUPPORT
Caring Communities and our Member organizations have combined their deep expertise to develop evidence-based tools and services as part of our aging services risk management system.
ORGANIZATIONAL CONSULTING
Our dedicated Risk Analysts work closely with Members on the integration of tools and resources, to build effective safety and risk management systems.
BEST PRACTICES
Due to our Member collaborations, we are able to identify trends and emerging risks, and with that information we can advise on best practices that will improve safety. As a non-punitive culture we encourage the sharing of errors and lessons learned in order to openly discuss suggestions for system improvements.
