Practical Information on Supported Decision Making (SDM) and Elders

Monday October 21, 2019
9am-11am
Senior Resource Development Agency (SRDA)
230 North Union, Room 101
Pueblo, Colorado 81005

This training will explore Supported Decision Making. Supported Decision Making (SDM) is a individualized, person-centred process that allows a person with diminished capacity to retain their decision-making capability by selecting friends, family members, professionals, or others to serve as advisors. These advisors help the person to understand and communicate decisions. Supported Decision Making is a growing alternative to guardianship and conservatorship. Following an overview of SDM, this training will discuss capacity, implications of guardianship, consequences of a lack of autonomy, and provide practical information on the SDM process and its limitations.

Presented by: Kelsey Lesco, Colorado Legal Assistance Developer for Elders under the Older Americans Act.

Who Should Attend? Social work practitioners, medical, psychologists and mental health, legal/judicial, law enforcement officials and personnel, home care placement agencies, court-appointed guardians and conservators, community-center board staff and clergy. All of the above – whether paid or unpaid.

Professional development CEU’s are available.
