We’re excited to share something new that can make a difference for your team: our brand-new, online positive behaviour support (PBS) training course! Whether you work directly with individuals, manage a team, or volunteer your time, this short but insightful program is designed to help you understand behaviours better and put genuinely helpful strategies into action.
So, What’s PBS Anyway, and Why Should You Care?
Think of Positive Behaviour Support (PBS) as a way to truly get to know someone and improve their life. Instead of just reacting when things get tough, it’s about figuring out why certain behaviours happen in the first place. It’s about being proactive and setting people up for success, always with respect and kindness at the forefront.
PBS allows us to focus on proactive measures rather than reactive solutions. It enables us to:
- Understand behaviours: Ever wonder why someone does what they do? This helps you identify the “why” and spot those unmet needs or triggers.
- Plan ahead: Learn how to create strategies that prevent challenging behaviours before they even start.
- Build new skills: Give individuals the tools to communicate and engage in new, more effective ways.
- Boost quality of life: Focus on creating environments where everyone can thrive and reach their full potential.
- Avoid restrictive practices: Discover how to support people humanely and respectfully, always putting their dignity and independence first.
