Positive Behaviour Support (PBS) Services

Behaviour Support That Adapts to Real Life

Behaviour is shaped by environment, experience, and relationships, which means effective support must be able to move with the individual rather than remain fixed to one setting. At ABA ConnectEd, our Positive Behaviour Support services are designed to operate wherever support is needed, whether in the home, within education and college environments, across community settings, or in residential provision. This flexibility allows behaviour support to remain relevant, consistent, and effective in real world contexts.

Rather than applying the same strategies across every environment, our team considers how behaviour presents differently depending on routine, expectations, and levels of support. By working across settings, we are able to identify patterns, triggers, and protective factors that may otherwise be missed. This insight allows support plans to be responsive and grounded in the individual’s lived experience rather than isolated observations.

A Trauma Informed and Least Restrictive Approach

All PBS planning at ABA ConnectEd is guided by a trauma informed framework that prioritises safety, dignity, and understanding. We focus on reducing distress and increasing quality of life through proactive strategies and positive alternatives to behaviour of concern. Support plans are designed to be least restrictive, ensuring that interventions promote autonomy and wellbeing while maintaining safety for the individual and those around them.

How Support Is Implemented Across Settings

Our PBS work is collaborative and practical, ensuring that strategies can be implemented consistently by those supporting the individual day to day. We provide guidance that is adaptable to different environments while maintaining a shared understanding of behaviour and support goals.

Support may involve

• Behaviour support planning across multiple environments

• Collaboration with families, educators, and care teams

• Proactive strategies to reduce escalation and risk

• Ongoing review as needs and environments change

Consistency That Builds Trust and Stability

By delivering PBS across community, education, and residential settings, we help create stability and predictability for individuals with complex behavioural needs. Our flexible working model ensures continuity of support during transitions and changes in environment. Through ethical practice, cross setting collaboration, and a strong focus on wellbeing, ABA ConnectEd provides Positive Behaviour Support that is responsive, respectful, and trusted by those we support and those who support them.
