Beyond the Open Door: Listening to Our Direct Support Professionals
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.
