The Practice governance framework makes explicit our core purpose, values and outcomes At Life Without Barriers we take a structured approach to understanding, measuring and monitoring our practice, so that we can understand its impact on outcomes for people we support.
Practice is the observable skill of a worker purposely engaging, interacting, and forming a relationship with an individual or a group of people within their world, to achieve positive outcomes. Practice is not just the responsibility of individuals - it is owned and embraced by the whole organisation and is a central Board concern.
Practice governance is a systematic approach to supporting and improving quality in practice and to understanding how and when we are achieving client outcomes.
Our Practice Governance Framework is a systematic, consistent whole-of-organisation approach to supporting and improving quality in practice across Life Without Barriers. The Framework assists us to understand whether we are doing what we need to do, with enough consistency and rigour, to bring about positive changes, and where we need to improve. Making our practice explicit and measuring agreed outcomes creates a robust line of sight between practice and client outcomes.
