Autism: Positive Behaviour Support

Service Description

6 November 2021 When we deal with challenging behaviours, it’s natural that we want to find quick fixes to remove and reduce these behaviours. But real and lasting change happens when we approach it from a different perspective and support the child in a way that meets their needs and allow them to learn better ways to communicate their needs. We need to focus on engaging the child to both learn and unlearn behaviours. This training provides insight into challenging behaviour as a function of communication and innate needs to be met. It is ONLY once we understand the need and communication behind the challenging behaviour, that we are able to be proactive and implement strategies to both avoid and reduce challenging behaviour. Training also includes: ​ De-escalation strategies / tools The importance of team work Importance of the correct recording, reporting and risk assessment plans to reduce challenging behaviour
