How it works

We’re committed to making high-tech simple and accessible.

a.l.m ministry is a virtual reality solution, which has been designed specifically for senior and youth living communities and healthcare organizations or privately. Our groundbreaking VR platform and live programming delivers engaging group experiences that build thriving communities and meaningful social connections.

No interaction required.

Residents quite simply put on a headset and they’re immediately transported into an immersive experience.

Networked for staff to control, residents to enjoy.

The headset(s) and tablet will be viewing the same experience, but each individual user controls where they are looking in that experience.

We deliver everything you need.

There is no need for controllers, additional hardware, or any set-up.

“It’s much simpler for our activity programmers to operate a wireless system. Once residents put the headsets on, they're in, and staff control the content from the tablet. That’s it. It’s pretty simple.”

we conduct thorough training with staff to ensure they’re comfortable with all aspects of the platform.

When staff complete their training session they'll be ready and excited to start using the platform.  Here's how we make sure that we're deploying a.l.m ministry with a focus on adoption:

1.

Deployment for adoption

Our community engagement team is dedicated to supporting your team and ensuring a smooth roll-out and adoption process. Our group will proactively reach out to understand the opportunities for your team and provide a personalized deployment plan focused on your goals, including a 60-minute training session for everybody on you team. Following the initial training, we'll set your team up with a 90-day deployment plan to ensure they have everything they need to succeed.

2.

Checking in regularly

Following your training session, our community engagement team conducts regular check-in calls to track usage goals, provide insights, answer questions, and learn about your team’s experience. We believe the first 90-days are essential to adoption, so you can count on us to follow-up regularly.

ENFORCEMENT

Article 2(2) of ICCPR provides that State Parties are to take the “necessary steps…. to adopt such laws or other measures as may be necessary to give effect to the rights recognized in the present Covenant.” Countries that have ratified the ICCPR must takes steps in their own jurisdictions to recognize the acceptance of this international covenant because, in “international law, a signature does not usually bind a State. The treaty is usually subject to a future ratification, acceptance, approval or accession.” In Canada, the accession process involves a series of reviews and consultation by the federal government and followed by a tabling of the treaty in Parliament.

In addition to State Parties’ formally adopting and recognizing the ICCPR in their jurisdiction, Article 28 of ICCPR provides for a Human Rights Committee (Committee) to be established for monitoring the State Parties’ implementation of the Covenant. State Parties are required to submit reports to the Committee for review, on measures used to adopt and give effect to the rights enshrined in the ICCPR.

As mentioned above, the First Optional Protocol allows victims of human rights violation to be heard by the Committee. However the ICCPR also provides in Article 41 that a State Party who claims another State Party is not fulfilling its obligations to implement ICCPR, may make written submissions to the Committee for consideration. Also, non-governmental organizations (NGOs) may also participate in ensuring that values under the ICCPR are protected by submitting ‘shadow reports’ and highlight areas for consideration by the Committee.

Article 9 of the International Covenant on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights (ICESCR) recognises "the right of everyone to social security, including social insurance." The right to social security is furthermore recognised in Article 10, which states that "special protection should be accorded to mothers during a reasonable period before and after childbirth. During such period working mothers should be accorded paid leave or leave with adequate social security benefits."[4] State parties to the ICESCR have the obligation to respect, protect and fulfil the right to social security. In the General Comment no 19 (2007) On the Right to Social Security the UN Committee on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights clarified that the right to social security as enshrined in the ICESCR encompasses:

"the right to access and maintain benefits, whether in cash or in kind, from (a) lack of work-related income caused by sickness, disability, maternity, employment injury, unemployment, old age, or death of a family member; (b) unaffordable access to health care; (c) insufficient family support, particularly children and adult dependents"[5]

Social security is understood to encompass the following nine branches: adequate health service, disability benefits, old age benefits, unemployment benefits, employment injury insurance, family and child support, maternity benefits, disability protections, and provisions for survivors and orphans. State parties to the ICESCR have the obligation to fulfil the right to social security by adopting "the necessary measures, including the implementation of a social security scheme". State parties must ensure that "the social security system will be adequate, accessible for everyone and will cover social risks and contingencies". State parties also have an obligation to facilitate the right to social security by sufficiently "recognizing this right within the national social security strategy".
