What is a Positive Behaviour Support (PBS) Plan?

A Positive Behaviour Support (PBS) plan is a comprehensive, individualized document that outlines strategies to support a person who displays behaviours of concern. Rather than simply trying to stop a behaviour, a PBS plan seeks to understand why it happens.

Behaviours are often a form of communication. By identifying the root causes—such as unmet needs, frustration, or sensory overload—we can develop proactive strategies to teach new, positive ways of communicating and coping.

Why Choose Daar for Your PBS Plan?

At daar, we take a compassionate, person-centered approach to behaviour support. Our experienced practitioners are committed to delivering plans that are:

  • Highly Individualized: We know that no two people are the same. Every PBS plan we create is tailored to the unique preferences, environment, and needs of the individual.
  • Evidence-Based: Our strategies are grounded in the latest behavioural science and best practices.
  • Collaborative: We don't work in isolation. We partner with families, caregivers, teachers, and allied health professionals to ensure consistent support across all environments.
  • Focused on Quality of Life: Our ultimate goal is not just behaviour reduction, but maximizing happiness, independence, and social inclusion.

Our PBS Plan Process

Comprehensive Assessment
We start by observing the individual and consulting with their support network to understand the triggers and functions of their behaviour.

Plan Development

Our specialists draft a customized PBS plan featuring proactive strategies (to prevent the behaviour) and reactive strategies (to safely manage the behaviour if it occurs).

Training & Implementation

A plan is only effective if it's used correctly. We provide hands-on training to families and support workers to confidently implement the strategies.

Ongoing Review & Adjustments
As the individual grows and their environment changes, we continually monitor progress and update the plan to ensure it remains effective.

Who can benefit from a Positive Behaviour Support plan?

A PBS plan is highly beneficial for individuals living with disabilities (such as Autism Spectrum Disorder, intellectual disabilities, or psychosocial disabilities) who exhibit challenging behaviours that impact their daily lives, safety, or social participation.

Are restrictive practices used in your PBS plans?
