PLANETREE:
At our last meeting, we talked about the importance of welcoming new employees to the Wales and treating them like they belong, before they belong, until they belong. I would like to encourage you to do the same.
Please do not forget how new admission feel, whether the decision was theirs or not; they too need support and special hospitality as they adjust to being one of our residents. So much is new for them. Showing them compassion and using a language of caring will make their transition that much easier.
Please be kind to yourselves and those around you,
Kim Bailey
