THE RESIDENTIAL PROGRAM PROVIDES SUPPORTS AND SERVICES TO 139 PEOPLE. EFFORTS TO REDUCE THE NUMBER OF STAFFING VACANCIES IN THE RESIDENTIAL PROGRAM PROVED EFFECTIVE DURING THE FOURTH QUARTER 2018, BOASTING A 60% REDUCTION BY YEARS' END. A SUCCESSFUL ONLINE RECRUITMENT AND APPLICATION ENDEAVOR MADE THE GREATEST IMPACT ON THIS ACHIEVEMENT. PROGRAM ADMINISTRATION ESTABLISHED A SET OF FIVE PRIORITIES FOR THE YEAR: 1. SAFETY, WELLBEING, HEALTH AND HAPPINESS OF THE PEOPLE WE SUPPORT; 2. WELL TRAINED STAFF; 3. CLEAN AND SAFE ENVIRONMENTS; 4. HARMONIOUS WORK ENVIRONMENTS; 5. OUTSTANDING CUSTOMER SERVICE. THE TEAM AGREED THAT THESE PRIORITIES ALIGNED NICELY WITH THE OVERARCHING CORE VALUES OF THE ORGANIZATION AND THEY STRIVE TO KEEP THESE PRIORITIES AT THE FOREFRONT OF DAILY EXECUTIVE PLANNING AND DECISION MAKING.
