August

Erin F.

Aug. 9th - Erin & I worked on the Home Share form. It was hard to keep her focus & Erin sometimes answered w/out giving deep thought to the answers. I reminded her that this was about her sharing a home w/someone who isn’t family & needs to know how capable & independent she is w/certain things like taking medications when she is suppose to or, taking care of her own hygiene routine.

Aug. 13th - Swimming at the pool. We laugh a lot at being goofy in the whirlpool & trying to pass each other. Erin chose to go to McD’s for a birthday treat.  She has talked a lot about her Mom missing this milestone 30th bday.

Aug. 16th - Erin was feeling a bit down today & was not up to going out. Her Dad was away & she was thinking about her Mom. We stayed at her place & played Clue which seemed to cheer her up. She enjoyed hosting & getting a lemonade drink for me.

Aug. 23rd - Erin had her counselling appointment right around our booked time. I drove her & picked her up. We talked about asking Dad to book her appointments in the morning.

Aug. 26th - We went for a walk at Whiffen spit. Erin expressed sadness over her Mom & some anxiety she was feeling. I asked if she is letting her counsellor know she said “yes”.

Aug. 30th - Went for a walk & talked about work. Erin is getting lots of hours & likes her job. She is talking to her manager about possibly trying a different dept.

Prepare for Mom’s family service in Regina.

Work on goals for the next year.

Erin is still grieving the loss of her Mom however, she is still open to talk about how she feels & doing social things to keep busy. Walking her dog, night market, karaoke.

Erin came up w/some good goal ideas. The last time I worked w/her on goals she had no plans or ideas on what she wanted to do.

Although Erin was excited about checking out an apt. she decided that a Home Share was a better first step to leaving home.
