ABOUT Our Resources

19th February 2012

This is a Team task

The Our Resources tag is intended to be a working collection of documents that individual teams adapt, to build a 'library' of useful resources for the work they are doing. These should be maintained as part of the TeamTemplate - part of the task of Manualization, whcih is one of the Core Features of AMBIT.

To add new Resources:


When you are logged in as a Team editor you can click on the tag Our Resources and then from the bottom of the drop down menu select "Create new tiddler with the same tag as this", which will generate a new tiddler ready to edit, but already-tagged as [[Our Resources]]". Alternatively, just place the word Resources in the Tags box in a new tiddler that you are editing.

Existing Material:


  • AMBIT Forms - offers downloadable copies of slides/paperwork that may have been used in AMBIT trainings, and which can be used by local teams.
  • CrisisServices - a place to detail Crisis services operating in the local area. (You could create a range of separate tiddlers, each tagged with the phrase CrisisServices.)
  • Local Protocols - where to record protocols that the local team has developed for specific tasks. (You could create a range of separate tiddlers, each tagged with the phrase "[[Local Protocols]]".)
  • Team members - Here you can record the names and brief biogs of team members, and if you wish photos, too (see Adding IMAGES, DOCUMENTS or VIDEO clips).
  • TeamContacts - here you could place telephone/fax numbers of services/offices frequently used by team members (note the warnings about privacy below, though, and only display numbers that are already in the public domain.)

Suggested Locall resources to record:


e.g. Youth clubs
e.g. Sports Centres
e.g. Special offers available for young people
etc

Warnings

Privacy


Be mindful of individuals' rights to privacy. Do not add addresses or telephone numbers unless these are resources that are already available on the internet. If in doubt, you can provide HyperLinks to existing web-based resources.

"Resources" are not Strengths or Resiliencies


We define StrengthsResiliencies in a young person/family as something different from the Resources that a KeyWorker may be able to draw on. (If you are using the manual as an ICR, StrengthsResiliencies for a client can be recorded under Make or View Client Notes).
