Behaviour support aims to develop individualised strategies for people with disability that are

• responsive to the person’s needs

• reducing the occurrence and impact of behaviours of concern

• minimising or eliminating the use of restrictive practices.

SALTIE’s Behaviour Support Practitioners can assist through:

• conducting Functional Behavioural Analyses (FBA)

• supporting data collection

• engaging directly with the participant for therapeutic interventions

• training support staff

• helping family

• working with care teams

• preparing reports, including Behaviour Support Plans (BSP).

Producing a high quality, comprehensive BSP takes time. Our benchmarking, along with that of other industry experts, indicates that 100+ hours are required to complete a BSP.
