Positive Behavioural Support Plans

Positive Behavioural Support Plans

Cared for individuals with medical conditions such as Dementia and/or Mental health related conditions can display a range of behaviours which may not be socially acceptable and may cause distress. 


A Positive Behaviour Support Plan is a framework which focusses on proactive strategies designed to improve quality of life and remove conditions that may cause/promote behaviours that are not socially acceptable through the identification of environmental adaptations; staff and cared for individuals perceptions and behavioural approaches and strategies to support the development of new skills if possible to manage socially unacceptable behaviours and hopefully reduce their frequency in a positive manner.
