This module describes the skills and knowledge required to identify behaviours of concern and to develop and promote positive behaviour supports as part of an individualised behaviour support plan for a person with disability, using a person-centred approach.

This module applies to workers in varied disability services contexts. Work performed requires a range of well-developed, person-centred skills where some discretion and judgment is required and workers will take responsibility for their own outputs.

By the end of this module, you should be able to:

- Define and explain the Positive Behaviour Support (PBS) framework

- Describe the key components of PBS and be able to demonstrate them when dealing with participants and
their families, as well as other staff members

- Come up with strategies to support behavioural change and/or manage behaviours of concern

- Explain what is needed in a behaviour support plan and be able to confidently co-create them with
appropriate team members

This module will take approximately 30 minutes to complete
