Sharing the Story of Care
StoryCorps and the Griot Tradition
griot.  noun  |  gri-ot |  \grēˈō\
: a storyteller; a position of honor in West African tradition, who hands down family and community history from one generation to the next. 
To celebrate Black History Month, check out the collection of stories StoryCorps has put together in keeping with the griot tradition. Listen to the linked story below and others from the Griot Collection.

How lucky we are to be in an industry that works closely with folks who have their own collections of memories like these. If you're excited by the idea of preserving the stories of those you care for, download the StoryCorp app. Please send us a note if you do have a story to share. With the participant's permission, we'd love to feature your recording in a special Generations spotlight.

Your caregivers have stories to tell also, and now your clients can get to know them before they even arrive for their first visit. With the free Client App, clients and their families can see a photo of their caregiver and read a short bio. Undoubtedly, every member of the care team has a story to tell. With technology like StoryCorp and Generations, the stories you share become powerful tools which inevitably lead to better care. Come out to LiveChat if you'd like more information about this feature, we'd be happy to help you.
