Residential Child Care Staff Selection: Choose with Care

By Meredith Kiraly

Written with a minimum of jargon, Residential Child Care Staff Selection: Choose With Care draws upon international research and the experience of practitioners to help you improve your ability to recruit the best staff. This book covers the range of selection methods and advocates a considered--but not cumbersome--approach that uses more than one method of assessing skills. It illustrates management techniques that reduce the likelihood of abuse and will show you how to avoid recruiting potentially abusive individuals. It also provides a recruitment guide for organizations that examines the challenges and pitfalls of the recruitment process to help you weed out unfit individuals and identify those who are most fit for this difficult yet extraordinarily rewarding career.
