Promoting Positive Behaviour and Behaviours that Challenge

Event on: 2022-June 29th 9:30 AM - 12:30 AM

The aim of this course is to equip frontline staff with the knowledge they need to promote positive behaviour, thus allowing them to offer support to the adults they work with, to help to develop skills to improve their quality of life, develop positive relationships, have choices and participate in their community.

This course reflects the standards of practice set by NISCC in relation to ‘Respecting the rights of service users while seeking to ensure that their behaviour does not harm themselves or other people. It supports RQIA Provider Guidance 2017-18 for Domiciliary Care Agencies Is Care Safe? There are, at all times, suitably qualified, competent and experienced persons working in the service in such numbers as are appropriate for the health and welfare of service users.

By the end of the course learners will:

  • explore the development of shared values, which promote the attitude, skill and knowledge needed to implement positive behaviour management
  • explore the complex range of causes of behaviour that challenges and how environmental factors and interactions may contribute to someone becoming distressed
  • explore the skills, qualities and approaches needed to support vulnerable adults in managing their behaviour.
