Debrief
• How did it feel to analyze another person’s goals?• What knowledge, skills and experience did you apply when making your
decision? How comfortable were you in providing feedback regarding how you arrived at your decision?

Debrief
• Do you think individuals living with brain injury get this kind of response to their hopes and dreams? If you are a family member/supporter/care giver, have you been on the receiving end of this type of often well meaning but paternalistic approach?

Today’s Session
• What are Person-Centered Discovery Tools?• How to use Person-Centered Discovery Tools • Creating a Person Centered Profile that can be used to highlight a person’s
interests, what is important to them, and how others can best support them at home, work and in the community
6
Using Person-Centered Tools for Engagement
What Do These Tools Do?
• Provide an opportunity for the individual living with a traumatic brain injury (TBI) and their supporters to think through what is important to and important for them
• Offer simple and concrete ways to communicate this information to anyone who comes into that individual’s life without the individual and their supporters needing to tell their story yet another time
7
Using Person-Centered Tools for Engagement
What Do These Tools Do?
• Offer a way to communicate essential, important information to potential caregivers and service providers if the individual’s primary supporters are no longer able to advocate for/support them
• Make it easier for the individual with a brain injury to convey information about themselves to new people who come into their lives

Using Person-Centered Tools for Engagement
Important To
What is important to a person includes those things in life which help us to be satisfied, content, comforted, fulfilled and happy, including:
• People to be with/in relationships• Things to do and places to go • Rituals or routines• Rhythm or pace of life • Status and control • Things to have

Important To
Include what matters most to the person; their own definition of quality of life.
What is important to a person includes only what people “say” with:• Their words• Their behavior
When words and behavior are in conflict, pay attention to the behavior and ask “why?”

What others see as necessary to help the person:• Be valued • Be a contributing member of their community

Issues of safety:• Environment • Well-being — physical and emotional • Free from fear
To and For ConnectionImportant to and important for influence:
• No one does anything that is important for them (willingly) unless a piece of it is important to them
Balance is dynamic (changing) and always involves tradeoffs:• Among the things that are important to• Between important to and for

Example
For a young adult with a TBI:• “It is important for me not to have any more seizures” (won’t be able to
drive, work, my medications might be increased and they make me sleepy enough already, my parents won’t support my goal of living in my own apartment again)
• “It is important to me to do the kind of things I did before my accident” (hang out with friends, go to bars, meet new people)
• Finding balance between for and to may mean drinking nonalcoholic beer

Step One
• Put your name in the center of the map
• Put the names of at least three to four people (non-people count, so pets,
your higher power, etc. are all fine to include) in your life who support
you/close to you/with whom you have a close relationship
• Switch maps with your partner
18

Step Two“If someone was doing a plan with me or helping me make a decision, who should they be sure they talk to?”
Working with a partner, ask:
• What do you like about the person?
• What do you admire about the person?
• When is the last time you had fun together and what did you do?

Morning Ritual
Stasia’s Morning Ritual• 5:15 a.m. — Wake up, alarm also wakes up the cats and dog (not the husband). Let the animals in, one of the cats (usually Squeakers) jumps on
the bed for head butts and kisses. Dog rests his head on the bed for pets and kisses and the cat gets irritated and jumps off. Read any messages on phone.
• 5:30 a.m. — Go down to kitchen, turn on coffee machine (prepared the night before), fill cat and dog bowls with water and food
• 5:45 a.m. — Every other day do a weights or yoga video before walking the dog. If it is a work from home day, may go to the barre studio for a 6 a.m. class
• 6:15 to 6:45 a.m. — Walk/jog the dog around the neighborhood while listening to a podcast: Mark Maron, Rich Roll, Main Street Vegan and Pod Save America are favorites.
• 6:45 a.m. — Get back into the house, give the dog a Dentastick, fill coffee cup and take shower. If washing hair, use a nice shampoo from the salon, the conditioner is a Moroccan oil based one from the Giant. On the mornings I wash my hair, drink first cup of coffee while drying hair. Get dressed (clothes placed in the bathroom the night before)
• 7 a.m. — Apply make-up while continuing to listen to Podcast
• 7:30 a.m. ish — BREAKFAST! Usually prepared the night before. Rolled oatmeal, walnuts, chopped dates, flax or hemp seeds, frozen berries (usually blue, wild from Maine), ¼ teaspoon of turmeric and a grind of black pepper with soy milk. Put in a “grab it bowl” and put a lid on it, will eat once I get to the office. Keep topping off coffee till I am out the door. Get lunch out, usually leftovers that were packed the night before.8 a.m. ~ Say goodbye to the husband and animals, everyone gets a smooch if they are nearby. Grab all the bags, laptop, lunch, tote and purse and leave for work travel mug of coffee and cereal bowl in hand.21

• Include favorite products you use. For example: Shaving cream? Soap? Hair products? Tea? Coffee? Soda? Quiet time?
• Include as much detail as you are comfortable with — include enough details so that you can learn how to collect sufficient information
• Tell us how long it takes — indicate what time it starts/ends

Your turn!
• Pull out your Good Day/Bad Day Form — give it to your partner
• Ask your partner to describe a Good Day and a Bad Day
• Once you have finished Good Day/Bad Day, give your partner your relationship map and morning routine
• Pull information together for what is “Important To” and “Important For”
Source: TLC-PCP 2013 www.learningcommunity.us
Discovery and Listening
Interview your partner. Using their relationship map and Good Day/Bad Day, you want to generate one or two “Important To” and “Important For” items. Before you write them down:
Guess: Look at what is written and guess in your head
Ask/Try: Ask your partner if your guess is correct and have a conversation
Write: Write down what you learn

Pulling It All Together
The one page description is a great way to introduce someone to a new direct care staff person, to the staff of a new program, it can be placed in the front of a person’s medical record.
If they are in an institution, assisted living setting or group home, the one page description, with the person’s permission, can be placed on the door to their room or apartment or on the wall of their room or other central location.

Pulling It All Together
Very useful in environments where there are multiple shifts/staff who may be per diem, or work evenings, when they may not have the opportunity to communicate with the team:
• For those who have limited language/communication ability, it can serve as a quick, holistic picture of a person and a way for supporters to engage in a Person-Centered way
