Behaviour Support

We employ a highly qualified Behavioural Support Team who provide expertise and offer personalised and intensive consultation and training.

The team works with people and their support teams to ensure triggers for challenging behaviours are identified and reduced or eliminated. This helps people to manage their behaviours in other, more positive ways and increase their quality of life.

The Positive Behaviour Supports framework that we use stems from three major sources: applied behaviour analysis, the normalisation movement, and person-centred values. It offers an approach for developing an understanding of why the person engages in the specified behaviour and strategies for preventing the occurrence of the behaviour. It also teaches the person new skills.

Our Behaviour Support Team is a fundamental part of the service that we provide at Dimensions and help to ensure that we are able to support people to live the life they want.'
