Courses in this level below:
The course provides an awareness to Cornelia de Lange syndrome. It provides learners with key areas of knowledge and explores important themes such as individuality, communication, behaviour, particularly challenging and self injurious, and how to offer person centred support.
This one day course is specific to specialist support staff working within the mental health and crisis intervention sectors where self harm and suicide may be present or where awareness of its potential is required. The aim is to improve and develop for learners an effective knowledge base to understand self harm and suicide and to provide core skills to enable, reduce, assess and manage potential and actual incidents. This should enable workers to be confident and subsequently safe in their practice.
The course also explores ligatures, and will enable staff to have the skills to assess their work environment for potential ligatures. Including carrying out an initial assessment, subsequent ongoing risk management, staff are then advised in the processes involved in safe and appropriate practices should a service user be at risk of ligating.
This is specialist training for care providers who require an introduction to positive behaviour support. Adaptable to all care settings, yet relevant to the core principles of PBS, this one day course will cover the key points of PBS and will provide much needed confidence in dealing in a constructive way with difficult behaviour specific to your setting. The training teaches staff how to be safe in difficult situations yet protect the dignity in a person centred way of the individual they are supporting.
