Aegis AllstarS
At Aegis, we take great pride in our programs and in empowering those we support to become the best version of themselves. We are truly honored to play such an important role in their everyday lives. None of this would be possible without the dedication, perseverance, and tenacity of our Direct Support Professionals. Their commitment is at the core of every opportunity we have and every success our individuals experience.
Each month, Aegis recognizes at least one Direct Support Professional as part of our Aegis Allstar program. Nominations may come from peers for many reasons—whether it’s going above and beyond for an individual, stepping up in a crisis, or mentoring a new staff member. While the reasons vary, every Aegis Allstar shares a common thread: they embody our mission, vision, and values, they reflect the culture we strive to cultivate, and they represent the very best of what we do at Aegis.

Becki Fahs
clinical Director
Residential programs welcomed a new individual in February. While this admission was planned, there were many challenges, barriers and road blocks until he finally arrived. He presented with unstable blood sugars, behavioral episodes and other medical issues that many staff in the house were not familiar with. Becki dove in to create training plans, reached out to staff for training, and made it a priority for staff to have all the base knowledge needed on how to appropriately care for this individual who was fully reliant on those around him. Becki spent many late nights at the office meeting with staff and educating them on the Aegis standard for quality care. With so many hours invested in training and meeting with staff, she was not discouraged when a majority of his needs changed. Instead, she rolled up her sleeves, re-worked, re-wrote and re-trained as many staff as she could before and after his arrival. Becki understands not only what quality care is, but the important part it plays in the mission, vision and values of the Aegis institution.
