Learning and Performance Team (LPT) Update

The Learning and Performance Team (LPT) is pleased to report that we have concluded another presentation of our 10 module Foundations Course. We had great attendance and participation from our campuses’ staff developers and educators. We want to recognize and thank all the programs for their commitment, over many months, that made this possible.

We have introduced a new project that will focus on providing a library of in-service trainings for use at our campuses. The most exciting element in this process is the opportunity for collaboration across our organization. LPT will be working with campus educators and developers, Home Office Support Teams, and our Crestwood Leadership to develop, design, and deliver these resources. These trainings will focus on providing our campuses with a unified and exemplary message that promotes and fosters our Crestwood Values and Pillars of Recovery. This will be a set of resources (10-12 trainings) that will meet and exceed the standards for our Department of Health Care Services (DHCS) and Commission on Accreditation of Rehabilitation Facilities (CARF) requirements.

In January, we welcomed our newest Learning and Performance Team member, Sarah Wood. Sarah has been serving and supporting the Crestwood family for many years as a leader at our Bakersfield campus. Sarah brings a wealth of skills and knowledge to this new role with LPT. Her new role will focus on supporting all our educators and developers in their use of our electronic training tracking database, Crestwood University.

The new Sonoma County Healing Center (SCHC) program is open and serving people in that community. LPT was honored to be a part of preparing for our newest family members by providing the New Employee Orientation (NEO) which started in December, 2021 and the program opened in early 2022. It gives a wonderful sense of accomplishment to know that this Psychiatric Health Facility (PHF) is already making a difference by providing compassionate support for people experiencing mental health challenges.

Stay tuned for more details to come.
