Our Goals

 At It’s My Life Kamloops Society, we are committed to supporting the growth and development of our team members. We provide mentorship and professional development opportunities to help our staff learn, grow, and deliver the highest quality person-centered care.

Our training programs include CPI, diversity and inclusion, diabetes care, dementia support, gender diversity education, and a variety of other professional development opportunities tailored to enhance the skills and knowledge of our team.

We are committed to accountability and dedicated to ongoing development to ensure the best possible outcomes for everyone we support.

At It’s My Life Kamloops Society, we actively seek feedback from employees, family members, the people we serve, external professionals, and other stakeholders. This helps us identify our strengths, recognize areas for growth, and continuously improve our services.

We are committed to accountability and dedicated to ongoing development to ensure the best possible outcomes for everyone we support, the community and any one else impacted by our agency.

 We support the people we serve in engaging with their community, building meaningful relationships, and pursuing their goals. We help break down barriers, identify opportunities, and empower individuals to follow their dreams.

We strongly believe that the people we support are the best ambassadors for teaching our community about diverse abilities, helping to challenge stigma and remove the biggest barriers to achieving their goals.

 We value consistency and understand the impact that staff turnover can have on the people we serve. We work to reduce disruptions in their lives through retention initiatives and a continuous focus on employee satisfaction.

Equally important, we prioritize building the right team by carefully matching staff with individuals based on interests, care needs, comfort levels, lifestyle, and personalities. This thoughtful approach ensures the most stable, person-centered support, while minimizing turnover and fostering meaningful relationships.

 All new board members complete the governance training offered by the City of Kamloops.

We are continually seeking additional, relevant training opportunities to support our board members in their roles and ensure effective, informed governance.

We celebrate the uniqueness of every individual we support and recognize that services must be tailored to their specific needs.

When creating care plans, we consider each person’s strengths and challenges, cultural and spiritual beliefs, interests, goals, and personal choices. These factors guide the development of an individualized support plan. As individuals grow and change, their plans are continually updated, ensuring that the services we provide remain flexible, dynamic, and truly person-centered.
