Who should you discuss this with and what are your obligations? These are some of the topics covered in this award winning course that every healthcare worker should be familiar with.
There will be times when you, as a carer, will experience challenging behaviour. Positive behaviour support is an evidence based approach with a primary goal of helping people to increase their quality of life.

In this module we look at how we determine the severity of the behaviour and ways in which we can manage the behaviour using the least restrictive method to the client’s personal freedom.
