Beyond the Open Door: Listening to Our Direct Support Professionals
Update: 2025-05-29
Description
In this week's episode, John and Cynthia explore the incredible insights and untapped potential of Direct Support Professionals (DSPs).
Our conversation will cover:
- Why DSPs often feel unheard within their organizations and how to change that
- Practical strategies for breaking down "invisible barriers" between leadership and frontline staff
- The importance of cultural awareness and diversity in our caregiving workforce
- Creative ways to show appreciation that truly resonate with different people
We'll share actionable tips for creating genuine listening opportunities, whether you're a family member working with DSPs, an organizational leader, or a DSP yourself looking to make your voice heard.
