Eden Alternative Principle 8 states that an Elder-centered community
seeks to place the maximum decision-making authority into the hands of the
Elders or those closest to them.
With this principle in mind, Elders participated in the
interview process for an Activities Director and a Dietitian at Hale Makua
Wailuku. Care Partner Connie Miller said
that having a resident present in the interview was helpful, as she was able to
watch their interaction, and the residents had some interesting and meaningful
questions to ask the applicants. It’s a
good way to determine if the new employee will be a good fit with the
residents.
Alan Camara, Faye Massey and Peter Kaina, pictured above, are just three of
several residents who have been participating in interviewing job applicants.
