Delivery formats
In-house practical (scenario-based)
PBS shifts the focus from managing incidents to understanding and preventing them. We build functional understanding of behaviour, teach de-escalation that actually works under pressure, and help teams write behaviour support plans staff will genuinely follow.
What’s involved
- The function of behaviour and antecedent analysis
- Writing and reviewing behaviour support plans
- Proactive, active and reactive strategies
- De-escalation and communication under pressure
- Restrictive practice, restraint reduction and STOMP
- Post-incident support, debrief and recording
- Trauma-informed and autism-aware approaches
What changes for you
- Fewer incidents and less reliance on restrictive practice
- Behaviour support plans that are used, not filed
- Safer staff and better placement stability
