Dear Members:

At the general meeting on November 15, 2007 the Association approved a proposal to sponsor Personal Assault Response Training (PART) for personal care home staff for our member homes. Training will be provided by a certified instructor who is also a member of the Association. The Personal Care Home Association will enter into a license agreement with SAHO to provide the training.
 

Initially two training sessions will be held in Regina. Each session can accommodate up to 16 participants for up to 16 hours over a two day period. Sessions will be held:

December 27-28, 2007 and January 3-4, 2008

Other sessions may be held later depending upon the level of interest.                                                                                                                        

The cost will be $65.00 per student which includes fees for the instructor, room rental, training materials and certificates. PART training is also available trough SIAST at a cost of  $145.00 per student.                       .

Students will be accommodated on a first come-first served bases. A cheque made out to the Regina and District Personal Care Home Association for $65.00 per student should be sent to P.O.
