We had good rest last night. We'd put in about 28 hours in the last two days. That pace, can't be held long, but man … what a journey!
We worked on several projects. Our performance analysis ended being 15 pages with lots of stats and colored charts imbedded in the work. It covers demographics, ICAP (Inventory of Client and Agency Planning), individual's goal progress, work analysis, and a report for the individual's preferences, abilities, strengths, and needs. Then we added back-up documentation. (Shoot, we mighta already said this the last entry ...)
When we got to the center, Sister Tess was as ready for me as we were for her. She did "the book" part of the application for the CARF survey. We exchanged paperwork for editing. We had already emailed her an agenda of what's left to be covered on our end. We asked for another day to add one more report. We want to include a report on program areas.
The combination of these reports is a pretty objective look at the yearly beginning, middle, and end of an individual's time with us.
In the process of reading over Sister's work, we'd both come to question using an old program guide that we were still using. We put on our goofy smile and giggled. Told Sr. Tess we could have a new one on her desk by the end of the day. Man, do I just love doing this kind of stuff!
The new program guide is 10 half sheets of paper which includes color pictures, mission, philosophy, program areas (like a college catalogue), levels of ability, center's beliefs, and thanks. We used Microsoft Publisher, burgundy, forest green and silver colors and a delicate form that is called, "The cross." We figured the new "login" will be, "To become all that God intended."
Just can't get over the part where I feel that we're being guided through all. The feeling is highly satisfying. Then we add always the thought … and we have our own office too! Just love it! With a tear in our eye, we know ... Sr. Tess built it out from the ground just for us. Just lovin her to pieces.
