This week I just want to draw your attention to something at the CCLD Website. It's a little link at the bottom of the page called CCLD Ethics Helpline. I'm encouraging you all to check this page out only to be familiar with it in case you should need it.
In the past there have been incidents of CCL employees involved in inappropriate situations involving gifts, favors and power struggles. The helpline exists to aid in discouraging this kind of behavior with CCL employees as well as stop it quicker if it should occur. In my experience CCL employees have been top notch and by the book, as they should be. This little tool is there for the protection of the residential care providers. Share it with your staff and colleagues. The link is here at CCLD Ethics Helpline.
