PBS: Your Premier Choice for NDIS Positive Behaviour Support

Positive Behaviour Support (PBS) is a person-centered and evidence-based approach aimed at improving the quality of life for individuals with disabilities, particularly those who exhibit complex and challenging behaviors. This approach focuses on crafting individualized strategies that reduce or eliminate the need for regulated restrictive practices while addressing the specific needs of each person. National Positive Behaviour Support (NPBS) is an organization committed to implementing PBS principles to empower individuals, enhance their dignity, and provide the necessary supports to improve their overall well-being.

At NPBS, we understand the importance of tailoring support to the unique needs of each individual. Our team of dedicated Behavior Support Practitioners brings a wealth of expertise to the table. They hold clinical psychology qualifications and undergo continuous training in behavior analysis and the management of complex behaviors. This ongoing education ensures that they remain at the forefront of best practices in the field.

NPBS operates with a deep sense of responsibility to create individualized behavior management plans, commonly known as Behavior Support Plans (BSPs). These plans are developed in close collaboration with the person/participant with a disability, their family, carers, and other key stakeholders. The aim of BSPs is to provide a comprehensive framework for addressing complex behaviors of concern while improving the participant's overall quality of life.

One of the key principles of PBS is to reduce reliance on regulated restrictive practices, which can have detrimental effects on a person's well-being and dignity. Instead, PBS emphasizes the use of evidence-informed strategies that are tailored to the individual's unique circumstances. By addressing the underlying causes of Behaviours of Concern (BOC), PBS aims to enhance the participant's sense of autonomy, self-determination, and overall happiness.

NPBS is dedicated to upholding these principles while meeting the requirements of the National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) legislative framework. This commitment ensures that participants and their support teams receive the highest quality of care and support.

In summary, Positive Behaviour Support, as championed by NPBS, is a holistic and compassionate approach that empowers individuals with disabilities to lead fulfilling lives. By prioritizing evidence-based strategies and person-centered support, NPBS strives to make a meaningful and lasting impact on the lives of those it serves, all while preserving their dignity and enhancing their quality of life.
