Transform your workplace culture with SCORE.
Workplace incivility undermines our sector by negatively impacting staff well-being and compromising the quality of care. We are excited to subsidize two SafeCare BC member organizations through the SCORE program to support these organizations in overcoming the negative impacts of workplace incivility.
What is SCORE?
The SCORE program (Strengthening a Culture of Respect and Engagement) is designed to strengthen workplace cultures by promoting civility, respect, and engagement and helping front-line staff learn a sustainable model for overcoming negative dynamics that weaken a culture of respect.
Benefits of SCORE
- Proven to enhance civility within teams
- Focuses on recognizing what’s working well and then builds on successes by making small, incremental changes to improve relationships that build mutual respect
- Fosters a supportive environment where everyone contributes to positive change
Participants report:
- Increased vulnerability and openness among staff, with less stress and more smiles
- A shift towards peer-led problem-solving and reduced workplace complaints
- A noticeable reduction in adverse resident behaviour
What you’ll get if accepted into the program:
Your organization’s investment in the SCORE program is $10,000. SafeCare BC will match that to cover the full cost of the program. Your investment gets you:
- You’ll learn how to run a huddle
- Get customized and ongoing facilitation, coaching, mentorship and support through the 9-12 month program
