Abstract

Although front‐line staff are the key agents in delivering positive behavioural support in care services, effective technologies for staff training in key behavioural competencies are not very well developed. The paper describes a training model that demonstrates effective outcomes for service users, participating staff and the host organisation. The critical elements of the training are outlined and principal outcomes described.
