Tools to support work with families
Working effectively with individuals and families with multiple and complex needs requires staff to engage and assess individuals and whole families in order to bring about sustainable change and improvements in outcomes.
This practical programme will provide staff with knowledge and understanding of a variety of tools to support this. Staff will learn about genograms, chronologies, timelines, Eco maps and the family star. There will be opportunities to practice the techniques as well!
