Service Providers
and
Care
Coordinators
Service providers and care coordinators can facilitate
supported decision-making by helping people make a plan for the support that
they want. One recommended process for writing Supported Decision-Making
Agreements (SDMAs) is outlined here.
Listed below are different types of resources for professionals who want to
offer services to help people create SDMAs. There are materials for training
professional staff and care coordinators, including webinars, slide
presentations, and video demonstrations. There are also interview tools that
can be used to guide inquiry and discussion with decision-makers about their
choices. If supporters need information about their role in supported
decision-making, there are those resources in the links, below.
Share the guides and other tools with the decision-maker and
download or print the one that you both think will be the most helpful for
writing a profile of the person’s life goals, current decision-making, and
choices about future decision-making.
