Behaviour Support Plans

Key Elements of Behaviour Support Plan

A BSP is a living document that should be regularly reviewed and revised to ensure its effectiveness in promoting positive behaviour change.

A Behaviour Support Plan (BSP) typically includes several key elements to effectively address and manage challenging behaviours. These elements may vary depending on the individual's specific needs and circumstances but include the following:

1. Assessment 

 A comprehensive assessment of the individual's behaviour, environment, and personal needs is conducted to identify the antecedents, triggers, and consequences of the challenging behaviour.

2. Goals

Specific goals and objectives are established to promote positive behaviour change and reduce the frequency and intensity of problematic behaviours.

3. Strategies

A set of proactive and reactive approaches are developed to address challenging behaviour. These strategies may include positive reinforcement for desirable behaviours, teaching alternative behaviours to replace problematic behaviours, modifying the environment to reduce triggers, providing visual or verbal cues to prompt appropriate behaviour, and developing a crisis management plan to address dangerous or emergencies.

4. Implementation

The BSP is implemented by a team of professionals and caregivers trained and equipped to provide support, guidance, and intervention as needed.

5. Monitoring and Evaluation

The individual's progress is regularly monitored and evaluated to determine the effectiveness of the BSP in promoting positive behaviour change. The plan may be revised to ensure its ongoing relevance and effectiveness.

6. Collaboration

Collaboration and communication among the team members, caregivers, and other stakeholders are essential for successfully implementing the BSP. This may include regular meetings, progress reports, and ongoing training and support for all involved
