Coordination of Home Sharing Standards and Policy
Coordinating agencies are responsible for ensuring that provincial standards are consistently applied through the home sharing services they manage. This includes:
- Implementing and monitoring compliance with CLBC’s Home Sharing Standards
- Promoting best practices in individualized support and community inclusion
- Supporting Quality of Life outcomes, such as personal safety, emotional well-being, meaningful relationships, and participation in the community
- Applying the principles of person-centered care
- Providing training and tools for providers to meet or exceed standards
Many agencies use resources such as the Home Sharing Coordinators Handbook (developed by the BC CEO Network) to guide internal processes. This handbook is a customizable tool that helps agencies manage:
- Documentation
- Quality assurance
- Provider oversight
- Cultural safety and inclusion
Agencies are also responsible for adapting policies to reflect their unique structure and communities while still aligning with CLBC requirements.
