\"\"Positive Behaviour Support:<\/b><\/h2>

Every support package is carefully planned and fully individualised, with client and staff safety, dignity, and quality of life at the centre. We follow a clear, evidence-based process that meets (and often exceeds) NDIS requirements:<\/p>

  • Functional Behaviour Assessment (FBA)<\/b> \u2013 Comprehensive assessment using direct observation, record reviews, interviews, standardised tools, and data collection (including ABC data, scatterplots, and frequency\/duration measures) to accurately identify the function(s) of behaviour and the variables maintaining it. This function-based understanding forms the foundation for all subsequent interim and comprehensive behaviour support plans, ensuring strategies are individualised, proactive, and fully aligned with the person\u2019s needs and NDIS requirements.<\/li>

    • Interim Behaviour Support Plans<\/b> \u2013 Delivered within days of the initial referral when safety is an immediate concern. These short-term, easy-to-follow plans focus on the highest-risk behaviours, provide clear proactive and reactive strategies, and include any emergency procedures needed to keep the person and others safe while the full assessment is completed.<\/li>
    • Comprehensive Behaviour Support Plans<\/b> \u2013 In-depth, person-centred documents (often 20\u201340 pages) that meet full NDIS specialist standards. They include detailed functional analysis, multi-element proactive strategies (visual supports, schedules, skill teaching programs), replacement behaviour training, crisis protocols, environmental modifications, and (only when required and authorised by the NDIS) carefully monitored restrictive practice fading plans.<\/li>
    • Training and Implementation Plans<\/b> \u2013 Practical, step-by-step guides written specifically for the people who support the client every day (families, support workers, teachers). Delivered alongside hands-on training sessions (in-home, at school, or via video), role-play, competency checks, and plain-English resources so everyone feels confident and consistent when carrying out the plan.<\/li>
    • Restrictive Practices<\/b> \u2013 If a plan is currently using any restrictive practice (seclusion, chemical, mechanical, environmental, or physical restraint), we complete the mandatory NDIS authoring requirements, lodge with the panel, and always include a detailed, data-driven fading\/reduction plan with regular progress reviews.<\/li>
    • End-of-Plan and Progress Reports<\/b> \u2013 Clear, evidence-based reports submitted to the NDIS (usually every 12 months or at funding end) with graphs, data summaries, outcomes achieved, recommendations for the next plan, and (where relevant) evidence that restrictive practices have been reduced or removed.<\/li>
    • Ongoing Monitoring, Data Review, and Plan Adjustments<\/b> \u2013 Regular check-ins (monthly to quarterly depending on complexity), ongoing data collection and analysis, team meetings, and prompt updates to the plan whenever progress is made, new challenges arise, or funding changes occur \u2013 ensuring support stays effective and relevant over time.<\/li><\/ul>
