Description
The 1 Day +ProActive Approaches Course (Understanding & Responding to Challenging Behaviour) empowers learners to consider challenging behaviour in a context, including functions of behaviour and how the environment and communication difficulties can affect people, as well as learning effective de-escalation techniques through fun and engaging experiential activities.
The philosophy behind +ProActive Approaches is one of understanding, empathy and adopting a pro-active mindset in relation to potential challenging behaviour. Through empowering staff members to become inquisitive about behaviour and consider it from a context of either being an unmet need, frustration, anxiety, environmental factor or communication difficulties, they will be able to correctly understand the behaviours and subsequently develop the correct support plans that will limit the likelihood of behaviour in the first place. This approach will ensure that your service effectively focuses on supporting people rather than trying to manage them.
The +ProActive Approaches courses draw heavily on contemporary research, PBS (Positive Behaviour Support) principles and direct practice experience. All courses will allow you to confidently meet CQC minimum standards.
The 1 Day +ProActive Approaches Course (Adults LD Edition) has been specifically developed for staff supporting adults either in their own homes, residential settings or day centres.
The course will be tailored specifically to your needs, following an audit of behaviours and an in-depth discussion, your current behavioural challenges will be taken fully into account and the course programme written accordingly.
