Culture of Care and Person-Centred Care

Now Featuring

BSO Person-Centred Language Initiative - Behavioural Supports Ontario (BSO) is rooted in person- and family-centred care. One such way to demonstrate this fundamental value is by incorporating a language, both written and spoken, that is specific, descriptive and resonates with the individuals we have the privilege to support.
