1.D. Develop Staff Abilities
NARR Standard 3.0 Core Principle: D. Develop Staff Abilities
It is important to find the social model reflected in the administration and operations of a recovery residence. Operators prepare staff members to reflect the social model and serve as examples for residents. Formal preparation of staff to exemplify and apply the social model, from tasks outlined in the job description to ongoing training and assessment, are expected to be an operational concern of the residence operator. Staff training and assessment will not only build needed skills, they will reinforce existing skills that are consistent with the model and explain why what’s being done is beneficial to residents. In addition, staff trained in the social model become a resource to build the personal and community recovery capital for residents. — NARR Standard 3.0 Compendium
