Behaviour Support NDIS

What exactly is NDIS Behaviour Support?

Many people miss out on NDIS Behaviour Support because they don’t understand how it works.

NDIS Positive Behaviour Support (PBS) helps individuals manage challenging behaviours with structured techniques.

Instead of reacting, PBS focuses on:

• Identifying triggers and patterns.
• Developing practical solutions.
• Building confidence and life skills.

Each person gets personalized support based on their needs, environment, and goals.

Our PBS services at Support Network facilitates:

• Better communication.
• Establishing organised routines.
• Increasing independence and concentration.

To maintain consistency, our NDIS Behaviour Support brings together families, carers, and support workers to create a cohesive strategy that enhances wellbeing, relationships, and progress. Our goal is to provide personalised support that is tailored to the client’s specific needs.

How NDIS Behaviour Support Plans work

Without a plan that works, managing challenging behaviour like anxiety or aggression can be difficult. Many people struggle to actualise their plans. But with the right NDIS Behaviour Support Plan (BSP) you can manage behaviours with proven strategies.

At Support Network we provide support that:

• Tracks progress for lasting success.
• Find triggers in order to avoid problems.
• Put proactive improvement solutions into action.

Let’s Build a Plan That Works for You!

Our Method

Our goal at Support Network is to help people flourish, not control their behaviour.

Our approach is:

• Person-focused: Adapted to each person's needs.
• Evidence-based: Supported by studies.
• Built for lasting change: Supporting individuals and families.

Getting to Know the Individual

Every person is unique, and so are their behaviours. That's why we start with a detailed assessment to identify their strengths, triggers, and goals. With these insights, we develop a tailored Behaviour Support Plan (BSP) that suits their needs, daily routines, and personal aspirations.

Positive & Proactive Strategies

We use Positive Behaviour Support (PBS), which focuses on understanding why behaviour is happening and on acquiring new, positive responses. Also, we proactively develop prevention tactics to stop troublesome behaviours from occurring at all, as opposed to only reacting when they do.

Collaborating with families and carers

Effective Conduct assistance encompasses the complete system of assistance, not just the individual. In order to ensure that techniques are applied consistently in home, school, and community contexts, we provide education and guidance to families, carers, and support staff.

This helps to establish a helpful, orderly, and predictable workplace.

Adaptable and Tailored Assistance Programmes

A one-size-fits-all strategy for behaviour support does not exist. We create customised support programmes that evolve over time. We constantly assess and modify the tactics to guarantee continued success as the person develops and their demands change.

Continuous Enhancement & Progress Tracking

We don't just plan. Our employees offer continuous assistance, keeping an eye on developments and making adjustments as necessary. Continuous evaluations, assessments, and fine-tuning ensure that the person is gaining the abilities necessary to lead a more autonomous and satisfying life.

Our Behaviour Support Plans:

You cannot use a generic approach in Behaviour Support.

Every individual presents different challenges and needs an individualised programme, for change.

So, we offer several types of Behaviour Support Plans to meet the differing needs. We have identified, from short-term guidance through to long-term intervention.

Each plan helps an individual's goals, challenges and personal circumstances.

Our Plans:

Short-Term Behaviour Support Plan

It is perfect for individuals who need immediate guidance and quick intervention.

It takes 3-6 months which includes initial assessment, behavior strategies, and caregiver training. It is suitable for emerging behavioural challenges or specific short-term goals.

Standard Behaviour Support Plan

A comprehensive plan for individuals needing structured, ongoing support.

It takes 6-12 months. This plan includes Functional Behaviour Assessment (FBA), individualized support strategies, and regular progress reviews.This is good for those with chronic behavioural issues that need significant follow-up.

Intensive Behaviour Support Plan

A high-level support plan for complex behavioural needs. The duration is 12+ months. It comprises advanced assessment, restrictive practices review, continuous monitoring, and hands-on caregiver training.

It is best suited for situations needing expert intervention.

Additionally, this is a long-term strategy as well as severe or high-risk behaviours.

Family & Caregiver Behaviour Support Plan

It is designed to empower families in the effective management of behavioural challenges. This is usually a flexible plan that includes training for parents and caregivers to reduce stress. It is best for families and support workers who need practical tools to create a positive home.

Youth & School Behaviour Support Plan

Centred on aiding children and adolescents within educational and social contexts. It takes 6-12 months and school-based interventions and social skills training. Children who need help in behaving at school, and interacting can enjoy this plan.

Why Our  Early Behaviour Support is Important

If you wait too long before seeking Behaviour Support challenges can be difficult.

• More frustration for the individual, family, and caregivers.
• More difficulty in ending those unwanted behaviours.
• Social and emotional opportunities lost.
• Greater stress and uncertainty with daily routines.

When challenging behaviour is not addressed, it worsens, and thus, it becomes harder to manage later on. Early intervention provides a solid foundation for long-term behavioural success and allows individuals to navigate around their environment with greater confidence and independence.

How our Early Behaviour Support Helps

Speedier Progress & Skill Development

Children and adults learn a new skill quicker when they are given behavioural support earlier. Emotional regulation, communication, or social interaction, whatever the skill may be, early intervention will enable people to develop lifelong good habits.

Quality of Life

People experience less frustration, stress, and isolation as they handle problems earlier in life. They are more self-sufficient and confident in how they react to everyday situations and find school, work, and social life easier.

Greater Family & Carer Support

Families and carers can support their loved ones better when they are with advice early. Early intervention teaches effective methods to set routines and create a supportive home.

Our Crisis Support When you need it most

Problem behaviours can become life-threatening circumstances for the individual, family, and caregivers. Aggression, self-injury, or anxiety attacks can strike without warning, leaving loved ones unprepared.

Without professional help, such crises can feel like they are impossible to manage. Most carers are not equipped to deal with them, and repeated crises can lead to exhaustion.

In some cases, families avoid some social activities for fear of disruption.

Crises not only affect the individual— they affect every person in their support network. The longer a behaviour pattern continues without intervention, the harder it can be. Families usually catch themselves reacting after a crisis, without a system that works.

That's where we come in.

Support Network offers Crisis Behaviour Support that is designed to offer immediate relief.

Our Behaviour Practitioners are professionals who are efficient in:

✅ De-escalation techniques – Helping individuals to regain control in moments of extreme stress.

✅ Crisis response planning

Providing families with formal, step-by-step guidelines on how to handle difficult moments.

✅ Emotional regulation strategies – Teaching individuals how to process and express emotions.

✅ Preventative solutions – Reducing the frequency and intensity of future crises.

We don't react to a crisis, we stop the next one.

By identifying behavioural triggers, we strive for long-term behavioural stability for you.

Understanding Restrictive Practices in Behaviour Support

Restrictive practices are sometimes used in responding to challenging behaviour that potentially poses a threat to an individual or others. Unfortunately, inappropriately considered interventions may infringe on rights, limit dignity, and negatively impact well-being.

The NDIS Quality and Safeguards Commission regulates the use of restrictive practices, on the recommendation of those prescriptive approaches to Positive Behaviour Support (PBS), now considered the safer and more ethical option.

Understanding Positive Behaviour Support (PBS)

The traditional behaviour management approaches always rely on outdated and restrictive practices that don’t guarantee growth. Positive Behaviour Support focuses on proactive methods to understand the root cause of the behaviour to enhance positive changes.

We provide an ethical approach, empowerment and long-term results.

Our approaches to Positive Behaviour Support:

Minimising Concern Behaviours

We identify the triggers and take proactive steps to prevent challenging behaviours from occurring in the first place.

Encouraging Skill-Development & Independence

PBS promotes lifelong learning and self-regulation, enabling individuals to manage daily life with confidence.

Restrictive Practices Reduction

Our strategies are designed to promote participants' rights and dignity while ensuring a safe and supportive environment.

Enhancing Communication & Social

Engagement We help individuals develop stronger communication, emotional regulation, and social skills for improved relationships and interactions.

Carer & Support Worker Training

We train and mentor caregivers to allow them to utilize effective behaviour management techniques.

What Are Restrictive Practices?

Restrictive practices are interventions that limit a person’s freedom in order to manage behaviours of concern.

The NDIS Commission defines five main types:

Physical Restraint – Restricting the movement of the person to prevent harm.

Example: An intervention entails physically holding the participant's arms to prevent self-injury.

Chemical Restraint – Medication is used to control behaviour.

Example: An intervention prescribes a sedative to decrease aggression, not to treat the participant's distress.

Mechanical Restraint – Equipment is used to prevent action.

Example: Mittens are used to prevent self-scratching.

Seclusion – Isolating someone in a locked or restricted space.

Example: Locking a person in a room as an intervention to calm the individual down.

Environmental Restriction – Limiting access to areas, objects, or activities.

Example: Use of locks on kitchen cabinets to restrict access to food.

Positive Behaviour Support (PBS) provides proactive, ethical, and person-centred methods which strive to prevent the occurrence of challenging behaviours from developing by:

• Identifying triggers and preventing behaviour before it occurs.
• Teaching positive coping mechanisms to substitute harmful behaviour.
• Promoting independence, dignity, and self-regulation.

Legal and Ethical Considerations

According to Australian law, restrictive practices must:

• Respect human rights - Each person has the right to dignity and choice.
• Use proportionate and necessary measures only when all other options fail.
• Follow informed consent procedures to ensure participants and families understand restrictive practices.
• Always review and aim for elimination over time.

Ethical Behaviour Support

Families need ethical solutions because some smithies limit freedom and confidence which can cause frustration.

Instead of restrictive practices, we use Positive Behaviour Support (PBS). These approaches empower individuals with better coping strategies.

Benefits:

1. Provide comprehensive behaviour assessments to assist participants in understanding their individual needs.
2. Provide personalised behaviour support plans (PBSP) that emphasise skill development and emotional regulation.
3. Give families and carers practical training to help them establish positive behaviours.
4. Provide help and adjustments, as well as regular follow-ups, to ensure that the improvement is effective.

Key Behaviour Support Services We Offer

We provide specialist Behaviour Support services to help manage behavioural challenges with confidence.

Individualised Behaviour Assessments

It is difficult to understand the root cause of challenging behaviours without assessment. Most individuals and carers do not have effective solutions. We use Functional Behaviour Assessments (FBA) to analyze behaviour patterns and identify triggers.

Positive Behaviour Support Plans (BSPs)

Without a structured approach, behaviour management can be overwhelming and ineffective.

Our Individualized Behaviour Support Plans (BSPs) provide clear strategies to encourage positive behaviours.

Crisis Intervention and Support

Acute behavioural crises can be stressful and challenging to manage without professional guidance. We provide immediate intervention and long-term crisis management strategies to de-escalate challenging behaviours.

Social Training & Skills Development

People who have behavioural challenges also struggle with communication, socialization, and emotional control. We provide structured training programs to allow individuals to learn social skills.

Family & Caregiver Training

Family members and caregivers are unaware of how to handle challenging behaviours. We offer training programs to equip families with skills to provide supportive care.

Advocacy & Ongoing Support

The majority of individuals and families struggle to navigate the NDIS system.

We provide continuous advocacy and support, ensuring individuals receive the best possible care.
