At Prop Up Care, we pride ourselves on offering uniquely personalised and evidence-based Positive Behaviour Support (PBS) services. Our commitment to the PBS framework sets us apart from our competitors and makes us the ideal choice for individuals with complex behaviours and their families. Our goal is to enhance the lives of people with disabilities by minimising dependence on restrictive measures while encouraging positive engagement, learning opportunities, and upholding their personal rights.
Behaviour that poses a challenge can affect an individual’s quality of life and trigger discomfort for them or others around them. Such behaviour may include actions that endanger the person or others’ physical safety, as well as circumstances that complicate social interactions, thereby restricting the individual’s ability to participate in community activities. That’s where our Implementing Behaviour Support Plans service comes in. By working together, we can achieve the following:
Our personalised approach ensures that we address behaviours of concern that impact the individual’s quality of life. This results in enhanced emotional and physical well-being for both the individual and their families.
We use person-centred strategies to support the individual’s choices and goals while upholding their rights and dignity.
Our evidence-based framework minimises dependence on restrictive measures by employing positive strategies to manage complex behaviours.
Our expert team is well-trained in delivering Positive Behaviour Support services, ensuring that individuals receive the high-quality support they need.
Funding for Positive Behaviour Support from NDIS is provided under the sections of Capacity Building Supports, specifically in the Improved Relationships or Improved Daily Living categories. This funding usually relates to goals around improving emotional regulation, communication abilities, behaviours, and relationships. If your plan does not include funding for PBS, you might have the option to request a review of your plan. Usually, the NDIS requires evidence as to why Behaviour Support is needed. For example, restrictive practices may be in place or challenging behaviour is affecting the safety of the individual or others around them.
A Behaviour Support Plan is a documented strategy that provides direction for managing complex behaviours. It is developed by consulting the person with a disability and their families and carers and depends on the complexity of needs of each individual. This plan will summarise the supports the person needs and offers instructions for prevention, management and response for difficult behaviours.
