Rule

Staffing plan that demonstrates continuous development for all staff.

Levels

I	II	III	IV
N/A	✔	✔	✔

This rule does not apply to level Is, because they do not have direct support staff.

Guidance

NARR does not prescribe how a recovery residence provides continuous skills development for all staff, because it can greatly differ from provider to provider. Examples may include: inservice training, external training, person-driven professional development plans, supervision or performance evaluations and reviews.

Evaluation

Does the recovery residence have a staffing plan that demonstrates continuous development for all staff?
