IN NTRODU UCTIION


INTRODUCTION People identified as having a dual diagnosis (developmental disability, mental health needs and/or challenging behaviours) that require intensive support and provide many challenges to staff, caregivers and the service system. The Community Networks of Specialized Care were established to:  coordinate local specialized service system  enhance specialized service delivery, and  train and build community capacity to support people with a dual diagnosis in their home communities. As a means to build capacity, a request was received from the Ministry of Community and Social Services (MCSS) to develop a training curriculum. This specialized training will provide staff in developmental service agencies an enhanced skill set to support people with a dual diagnosis, complex and/or changing needs, and behavioural challenges.

BACKGROUND The identified training needs for the Clinical and Responsiveness Training were established through; surveys distributed to agencies in Central East Region, discussion groups and feedback surveys from educational events held in Central Region and the Tri Region Alliance Annual Meeting in 2013. The training needs identified through this data collection focused on enhancing the skill set of the staff to better support people with a dual diagnosis, complex and/or changing needs, and challenging behaviour in their living environments. The following additional criteria for the training program were identified:  Provide intensive face‐to‐face training  Develop a standardized training continuum and standardized training approaches  Develop an assessment tool to evaluate skill level of staff  Highlight sensitivities (cultural, linguistic, etc.) in working with families/client  Support alternate models for learning including mentoring, train the trainer, booster sessions  Develop interdisciplinary team skills  Create process for mentoring in the workplace for staff  Deepen knowledge and skills through ongoing monthly consultation using videoconferencing technology With the above needs and criteria in mind, the Central East Network of Specialized Care, upon receipt of funding for the project, set out a formal statement of goals/objectives for the Clinical and Responsiveness Training (CART) curriculum:

GOALS The goal of the CART training is to enhance the skills and knowledge of staff in the developmental service sector in Central East Region so that the highest quality of support can be provided for adults with a dual diagnosis, complex and/or changing needs, and behavioural challenges in their support environments. The CART curriculum will increase the knowledge, confidence, and understanding of Direct Support Professionals in the use of Positive Behaviour Support, including the use of proactive strategies and creating habilitative environments to decrease and prevent challenging behaviours. CART Workbook for DSPs: Introduction


Specifically, the goal of the training was to ensure that Direct Support Professionals who were trained would be able to:  Define complex and/or changing needs and challenging behaviour.  Understand the importance of using the Biopsychosocial Model when supporting people with a dual diagnosis.  Discuss how the use of Applied Behaviour Analysis integrates the recognition of the Biopsychosocial Model in developing behaviour plans and crisis plans for people with a dual diagnosis.  Incorporate the requirements of the Quality Assurance Measures regarding Ontario Regulation 299/10 into the supports provided to people with a dual diagnosis (e.g. Behaviour Support Plans).  Create wellness in the workplace using mindfulness based strategies.  Understand and be able to access specialized resources to support people with dual diagnosis. Research indicates that learning supported through ongoing coaching/mentoring (via direct supervisors or managers) produces better skill development outcomes. To ensure that the training goals for Direct Support Professionals were met, ongoing support in translating their learning to on‐the‐job behaviours would be required. As a result, the CART training for Managers/Supervisors that was developed focused on teaching and practicing coaching skills.

TRAINING OUTCOMES Standardized Curriculum Developed:  Standardized clinical and responsiveness training model (CART) focused on building positive support approaches, behaviour and clinical plans is developed, along with manuals and training materials Front‐Line Staff and Managers/Supervisors Trained:  Clinical and Responsiveness Training (CART) was delivered to 125 participants (Front‐Line Staff & Managers/ Supervisors) in Year 1 and 150 participants in Year 2 Skills and Confidence Enhanced:  Front‐Line staff and Managers/Supervisors have enhanced skills and confidence in their roles (as evaluated through an assessment tool) Knowledge Exchanged:  Participants’ learning is shared through mentoring or peer training and Videoconferencing peer consultation to further build capacity  A common clinical assessment and intervention language is shared so that it can be applied across sectors  Inter‐disciplinary team skills are developed  Professional partnerships (at the staff training and delivery levels) are built between Ministry of Community and Social Services funded agencies

We will work through the elements of the CART Framework, consider the key Direct Support Professional and Coach’s role, give you an opportunity to learn about each element, and practice the skills involved. This will allow you to contribute fully to creating a positive, meaningful support environment.

The CART Framework

POSITIVE BEHAVIOUR SUPPORTS

FOUNDATION

There are a number of tools and processes available to guide our work and these make up the CART Framework, which is based on the Positive Behaviour Support approach. It’s all about positive supports for people.

UNDERSTANDING BEHAVIOUR

Positive Behaviour Support enhances quality of life by building skills, preventing problems and altering environment to minimize challenging behaviours and maximize participation and satisfaction.

PROACTIVE NTERVENTIONS

By taking a Positive Behaviour Support approach we will understand others better. If we take into account what the person is all about, we can support them better, and we can increase and help support positive behaviours and decrease challenging behaviours.

CHANGING CONSEQUENCES

Why Take a Positive Behaviour Support Approach?

FUNCTIONS OF BEHAVIOUR


FOUNDATION POSITIVE BEHAVIOUR SUPPORTS UNDERSTANDING BEHAVIOUR

This is the underpinning of all aspects of support, assessment, planning and intervention.

Person Directed Plan

A plan to understand the person’s interests, goals, preferences, and to guide choices and support independence.

Support Plan

A plan to identify:  The activities and support people that are in place to make sure the person’s goals are translated into action  Who is responsible for what activities and roles, and when these things will happen  Proactive and prevention approaches to promote community participation and quality of life

Biopsychosocial Formulation

A ‘work in progress’ document to understand the whole person, looking at underlying issues and what may be contributing to a problem. When behaviours are of concern, the process uses discovery questions to understand what the behaviour is communicating and leads supporters to take action or investigate further.

Functional Behaviour Assessment

Functional Behaviour Assessment uses direct and indirect methods to collect information about the function of behaviour—what need the behaviour is meeting and what it is communicating—and points to relevant interventions. The Direct Support Professional would contribute to the Functional Behaviour Assessment and would always be collaborating with a Behaviour Consultant.

Behaviour Support Plan

A plan is to make sure staff and the person are using a consistent approach to support the person in the most positive and least restrictive ways (to prevent ‘problem’ behaviour, be proactive, support quality of life, participation, and relationships). The plan will also include interventions to be used consistently when challenging behaviours occur.

Integrated Clinical Plan

This is a plan for the most complex situations when:  Many disciplines are involved  We need to understand how all the pieces fit together  We have to collaborate to develop, implement, and monitor the response or intervention plan  A more specialized response is needed

FOUNDATION UNDERSTANDING BEHAVIOUR

The Person Directed Plan is the domain of the Direct Support Professional, and likely a core part of your function already. This is at the foundation of everything that follows. A positive support culture promotes the person directed values of respecting people, rights, dignity, and choice. We can do this by:

“…the best time to intervene with problem behaviours is when they are not occurring,” (Carr et al., 1994, pp. 15) Dr. Edward Gary Carr (b. August 20, 1948, Toronto, Canada ‐ d. June 20, 2009, Wading River, New York) was an internationally‐recognized pioneer in autism treatment research. Dr. Carr applied studies about the functions that self‐ injurious behaviours served and contributed substantially to the development and refinement of “Positive Behaviour Support” (Carr et al., 2002)

FUNCTIONS OF BEHAVIOUR

Because difficult behaviours may result from unmet needs, when we focus on understanding and meeting needs first, we may discover that difficult behaviours can be avoided. We can then identify other issues, but the whole picture will be clearer.

TEACHING SKILLS

By maintaining a focus on the person’s Person Directed Plan we will promote the values of discovery, individuality, choice, rights, inclusion, and quality of life. Each organization will have its own approach. The important thing is to make it specific to, meaningful for, and owned by the person.

UNDERSTANDING BEHAVIOUR

John and Connie Lyle O’Brien (2003) suggest the following questions for building a support plan. Notice how different these questions are from those we typically ask, such as “How can we reduce this person’s problem behaviours?” or “How can we manage this behaviour?”

FUNCTIONS OF BEHAVIOUR

These are questions that are important to each of us as we seek meaning and authentic connection in our lives.

➠ What is Positive Behaviour Support?

TEACHING SKILLS

Positive Behaviour Support is everything that you do as a Direct Support Professional to support a good fit between what the person needs, what the environment around them has to offer, and the skills they need to live and be successful in that environment.

COLLABORATING TO ADDRESS CHALLENGING BEHAVIOURS

Positive Behaviour Support practice includes continually thinking about the person’s Person Directed Plan so that you include appropriate activities, respect their preferences, and respect what is important to them about relationships, place, space, routine, and being heard. It means taking your time to listen to them. People have needs; they communicate their needs in their own unique way. If they are distressed they may not have the words—but you can still listen and observe. Positive Behaviour Support is also about building skills that the person needs for independence, such as making choices and communicating. Some generic skills may lead to frustration if the person does not possess these skills — for example, stress management skills, social skills, functional skills, and communication skills. In addition, Positive Behaviour Support is about understanding and altering environments (understood broadly) to enhance quality of life and prevent challenging behaviours.

How can we help the person to expand and deepen his/her relationships? How can we help the person to achieve a sense of health and well‐being? How can we help the person to have more fun in ordinary, everyday community places? How can we help the person to have more power? How can we help the person to make a contribution to others? How can we help the person learn valued skills? How can we help the person supporters to get the support they need?

A Positive Behaviour Support approach includes thinking differently about how to support a person who is emotionally distressed. When we think and react differently, we can help to prevent more serious challenges for the person.

2.

1. Functional Assessment Understanding the reasons for (or the “function” of) problem behaviours by asking what environmental events or conditions are provoking and supporting the behaviours. (This is done by developing and testing hypotheses through data collection. Although the Direct Support Professional and Coach can begin gathering data and information, the Behaviour Consultant will need to come in here).

The PBS process has three cornerstones:

CART Workbook for DSPs: Positive Supports for People – A Foundation for CART Training

PROACTIVE NTERVENTIONS TEACHING SKILLS

FUNCTIONS OF BEHAVIOUR

Positive Behaviour Support strategies and interventions are considered effective when they:  Result in increasing a person’s success and personal satisfaction  Enhance positive social interactions across work, academic, recreational, and community settings  Increase quality of life as defined by a person’s unique preferences and needs  Lead to positive lifestyle changes that increase social belonging

CHANGING CONSEQUENCES

People generally do not want to behave in a disruptive way, and if they are given strategies and skills designed for their unique needs, they won’t behave disruptively. This means, going beyond the ‘quick fix’ to really entering into their experience. Positive Behaviour Support is essentially putting ‘feet’ on the Person Directed Plan. The goals of Positive Behaviour Support are to increase quality of life and decrease problem behaviour. It is about supporting people to:  Enjoy life  Develop positive relationships with others  Be as independent as possible  Live a normal life  Develop a sense of personal agency through experiencing sufficient choice and control in their life  Improve competence in managing their daily life  Be recognized for positive contributions  Overcome problem behaviour

WORDS OF WISDOM

“I have found that I most enjoy my work and am most helpful to others when I let them affect me….if I can hear another person’s words, not from a place of clinical distance, but as they touch me and resonate inside me, then I can bring a fully alive, human presence to bear on the other’s experience, which is much more likely to create an environment in which healing can occur.…authentic presence is sparked in therapists when they let themselves be touched by the client, when they can really feel what it is like to be in the client’s world so they can respond from a place of true empathy and compassion.” Source: John Welwood (1983).

FUNCTIONS OF BEHAVIOUR

Every day, reactive strategies are used to respond to many different kinds of problems that are encountered. Environmental crises resulting in deaths and disabilities often occur before possible solutions for cleaning up local contamination are considered. Prison systems are based upon our reaction to societal crimes. Meanwhile, the social problems that give rise to these crimes are not addressed. Schools commonly rely upon punishment and exclusionary practices to address student misbehaviour. Individualized Behaviour Support Plans are often implemented in response to the occurrence of problem behaviours. Positive Behaviour Support emphasizes prevention and proactive strategies. This is the domain of the Direct Support Professional. Proactive and prevention strategies include:

Direct Individualized Interventions Direct interventions can reinforce the prosocial (positive and desirable) behaviours that the person will benefit from doing more often. This strategy is readily available to the Direct Support Professional. A simple, genuine statement of praise or thanks for a specific action or behaviour is what we do for each other all the time.

Direct interventions include: • Differential reinforcement of positive behaviour • Differential reinforcement of low rates of concerning behaviour • Differential reinforcement of alternative behaviours

Reactive Strategies Reactive strategies include how you respond as a Direct Support Professional to any behaviour. Usually, this is with the intention of supporting and increasing positive behaviours that will ensure the person’s needs are met. You can use non‐intrusive reactive strategies when you see something brewing, like the early signs of distress.

Reactive strategies include: • Active listening • Feedback • Redirection • Limit setting

• • • •

Adapted communication Facilitated relaxation or self‐soothing Facilitated problem solving Distraction

We may become too focused on the more formal nonviolent crisis intervention or safe management approaches that all Direct Support Professionals have been trained in. Yes, we need to think about how we respond when behaviours are more challenging, but we can also use reactive strategies to prevent escalation and to respond effectively and personably to the person in the moment when we see the first signs of escalation. It is important that we don’t think that at the first signs of agitation, we need to jump into planned de‐escalation strategies. Active listening or redirection can be very effective. Sometimes a person needs assistance to communicate, to use self‐soothing strategies or self‐management coping skills, needs redirection, or needs understanding and help to address a concern, just as each of us does. Listening to, and acknowledging, emotions can be hugely effective. We all need to be understood.

In Module 3 you will learn the importance of strategies to intervene around antecedents. This will include understanding all the components of environment (and there are many) as well as interventions to adapt the environment.

GO FORWARD PLANNING

Now, we move on to how we think about the person’s environment, our role in that environment, and the impact of environment on the person. The idea of devoting time and energy to create an environment that reduces problem behaviour is sometimes met with resistance. It is important to understand that placing an emphasis on prevention will set the stage for fewer crises in the future.

➠ About the Environment


FOUNDATION POSITIVE BEHAVIOUR SUPPORTS

While Positive Behaviour Support cannot ‘cure’ underlying biological bases for mental illnesses, it has been shown that it can reduce the behaviours of concern for those who have mental health or physical health conditions. So, the discovery process continues.

UNDERSTANDING BEHAVIOUR

Let’s keep in mind that although people may have positive and respectful social and physical environments, there may be pervasive or deeper issues. If someone has physical pain, then all the positive support and care in the world will not resolve that issue.

CHANGING CONSEQUENCES

PROACTIVE NTERVENTIONS

Assessment and clinical investigation can be very important. The Direct Support Professional’s role in asking questions, and being key to the investigation, drives this. A significant number of people engage in problem behaviours that are not linked to social or environmental functions. When a team is unable to identify clear signs that environmental variables are influencing problem behaviour, it is possible that biological factors may play a part in the occurrence of problem behaviour. Direct Support Professionals need to understand:

Predisposing and Underlying Factors – Health Issues

When we talk about a “behaviour of concern,” we will think of these as consistent behaviours that interfere with support, relationships, and participation. There are many areas for you to consider including: • • •

Medical issues Mental health issues, diagnoses, and psychological needs Social, family, and peer issues

It’s time to go deeper. There are a number of common medical or health issues for people with developmental disabilities that can often go undetected, as well as common medical or health issues associated with problem behaviour. These are underlying issues that impact behaviour and wellbeing. Understanding them will help us use a broader lens when assessing the person.

Page 12

Environment, interpersonal, programmatic, physical

Each area, however, cannot be treated independently, as there are several influencing factors that are considered dynamic and interactive. These influencing factors include: • Historical: What is there in the person’s background in each of the B P and S areas that contributes to the current situation? • Contributing/Sustaining Factors: Why are issues present now? What are the triggers, what’s new, and what’s keeping the issue or problem going? • Strengths: What are the positive features of the person and/or the strengths of those around them (internal and external resources) that can be enlisted to address the problem or issue?

CHANGING CONSEQUENCES

So if we are really interested and committed to understanding the person in a holistic way we need to go deeper. Think about this as a discovery process. The Direct Support Professional needs to be a sleuth, to pull together what the person is all about including some of the underlying issues that may be hidden from view (e.g. psychotic illness, earache, toothache, stomach issues, trauma issues, urinary tract infection, etc.).

FUNCTIONS OF BEHAVIOUR

Statistics related to persons with developmental disabilities highlight the need to investigate medical and psychological issues: • 43% have undiagnosed health problems (simple things like high blood pressure, gastro and colitis) compared to 8.3% of the general population • 25% do not have their dental needs attended to (and if they are identified as having dental difficulties, many receive inadequate or inappropriate care) and suffer because of dental pain. • Children with disabilities are 5 times more likely to be abused than the general population • One third of women with intellectual disabilities report being victims of sexual abuse • In Canada, one baby with Fetal Alcohol Syndrome is born every day • Even though only 38% have mental health needs, half of the adults with developmental disabilities are prescribed psychotropic medication with NO diagnosable psychiatric disorder. Medication is used to control challenging behaviour when there is little evidence that it is effective. Side effects and interactions have significant impact on behaviour due to response sensitivities.

UNDERSTANDING BEHAVIOUR

The Biopsychosocial formulation that takes into consideration all three Biopsychosocial elements, is not built on assumptions or hunches, but must be supported with factual data and observations. It needs to relate back to specific experiences or information provided by the person or others involved with them in the past and present. It is a work in progress and will change and develop as changes take place in any domain.

Direct Support Professionals have an important role in the discovery process and can use the grid as a tool to increase understanding and guide action. To do this, a Direct Support Professional needs to look at the areas within the Biopsychosocial domains where information can be found.

The ‘Over to U’ tool is a good resource and includes questions which can be explored in each domain to assist in the formulation process.

➠ Some Tips for Understanding the Bio of Biopsychosocial It’s worth taking the time to collect and read thoroughly through a person’s history to understand what you may have missed. Sometimes important medical and psychiatric information gets lost in the course of moves and shifting priorities. Questions to determine predisposing elements: • What might be causing physical discomfort? • Are the person’s basic needs being met? • Any noticeable change in eating, sleeping, physical routine/elimination, self‐care? Any pattern, how long, time of day? • Any observable change to energy level, overall mood, facial/communication/ behavioural expression? • Is there a history of a recurring medical/dental condition (digestive, ear, urinary, heart, respiratory, abscess)? • Does the person have any syndromes/predisposing genetic conditions/ neurological issues? • Are there any sensory limitations, sensitivities, vulnerabilities, or disabilities (hearing, vision, sensitivity to touch, noise)? Any restrictions in movement, unusual movements? • Have there been recent medical and dental exams? Any issues, treatment in progress? • Has the person been assessed for mental health issues? Any medications? Any side effects? What psychiatric diagnoses? What do I need to know about how symptoms are expressed for this person? What do I know about developmental milestones (physical, sexual, learning)? CART Workbook for DSPs: Positive Supports for People – A Foundation for CART Training

Your organization should have on file any psychiatric assessment or psychological assessments completed. If not, it will be useful to request them particularly if there are complex needs emerging. Even if the assessments are old, such as social histories from child treatment centres and child welfare care, they often offer a picture of some of the trauma and attachment issues a person may have survived. Earlier multiple diagnoses of Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD), conduct disorder and/or depression can sometimes indicate the early signs of other mental disorders (e.g. bi‐ polar disorder). It is also important to identify whether there are Fetal Alcohol Effects, as support approaches may need to be different with these people. Where there is a list of previous diagnoses and current psychiatric assessment is not available on file, it is always worth discussing this with the primary care practitioner as they may not have historical information available. If family members are not ‘on the scene’ to provide history, the Direct Support Professional role is particularly valuable.

Trauma People now living in the community may have been in institutions, incarcerated, or in foster homes (where they may not have been treated either safely or respectfully). This is highly significant information as there may be reverberations of trauma that relate to behaviour. Also, sensitivities because of previous abuse need to be considered.

Neurological A high proportion of people with developmental disabilities have been diagnosed with epilepsy at one time or another, or other neurological abnormalities (even Acquired Brain Syndrome from birth trauma) and this information may not follow them along. It will impact their behaviour as well as assist in thinking about how best to intervene when there are behaviour changes.

Syndromes Although low ‘incident’, many syndromes can be associated with increased challenging behaviour, such as Lesch‐Nyan, Fragile X, Williams syndrome, Rhombencephalosynapsys, Cornelia de Lang and Rett Syndrome. It’s important to know and understand these syndromes. You need to take the lead and actively seek out more information.

Health Conditions There are a number of health conditions that can cause challenging behaviour which can present what seem like sudden symptoms, which may be expressed through behaviour change: • Hypo/hyperglycemic episodes in diabetes • Urinary tract infections • Uncontrolled pain (that limited expressive language requires behaviour to communicate) • Dementia • Hypothyroidism (especially in Down’s syndrome) • Constipation • Hormonal imbalance (including PMS in females and raised testosterone in males) Page 16

Making the Links Between Positive Behaviour Supports, Biopsychosocial, and Functional Behaviour Assessment •

The Biopsychosocial approach helps us understand all areas of functioning, using a wide lens to discover and understand, so that predisposing issues and their impact are understood and responded to. The overlap with Positive Behaviour Support is related to what is going on with the person beneath the surface, which may or may not be related to the environment. The Biopsychosocial approach is important when building skills and altering the environment have not changed behaviour and more investigation needs to be done. Where there are no predisposing factors that can be addressed, or when they are addressed and the problem continues, it will be useful to complete a Functional Behaviour Assessment. The first step is learning the ABCs.

FOUNDATION POSITIVE BEHAVIOUR SUPPORTS UNDERSTANDING BEHAVIOUR PROACTIVE NTERVENTIONS

Antecedents—events that take place before behaviour occurs to make it more likely that desirable behaviour will occur and problem behaviour will not. Every behaviour has an antecedent.

Behaviour—what we see, observe, hear and can measure in how a person acts.

Consequences—events that take place after behaviour occurs. Every behaviour has a consequence.

Example of what precedes and follows aggressive behaviour:

Understanding the ABCs

ABC is a way of thinking about human behaviour. We will spend more time on this in Modules 2, 3 and 4. We want you to think about behaviour in relation to what comes before it and what comes after it. We will challenge you to look at your own behaviour as well as the behaviour of those you support.

➠ Functional Behaviour Assessment The Functional Behaviour Assessment is done when challenging behaviours persist. You may have done some thinking and observing of the ABCs and some initial data collection. It is now time to call in the behavioural experts, as it is critical to accurately determine the function of a behaviour in order to build a plan to address that specific behaviour. It’s important to get the function right, not to use guesswork or work from assumptions. What may look like ‘attention seeking’ may in fact be a way of getting out of performing a skill that the individual does not have competence in and very different interventions would be needed. We’ll explore this further in Module 5. The Direct Support Professional needs to observe, measure, and document behaviour in order to contribute to the Functional Behaviour Assessment. This assessment cannot be completed without input from Direct Support Professionals as the ‘eyes and ears’ ‐ they know the person best and are present in their day‐to‐day environment.

Take time for yourself during the work day. Take your allotted breaks and make the best of them. Get outside for some fresh air, stretch and take deep breaths all the way into your belly or just sit and relax with your eyes closed for a few minutes. Treat your body well. Get enough sleep and eat healthy. It’s challenging work that you do. You need to be rested and healthy. Talk about your stressors with your peers and your supervisor. You are not invincible, and it is so important to process your experiences with others in the same field. Be willing to be honest about how you feel. Find quick self‐care rituals to fit into your busy day. Think of simple ways to make time for yourself. Can you take mini breaks? A ritual at lunch where you listen to 10 minutes of your favourite music? A walk to the corner and back? A few yoga postures? What would work for you?

Direct Support Professionals will make valuable contributions to development and implementation of a practical and effective Behaviour Support Plan. They will be the on‐the‐ ground resources that will make or break the success of every Behaviour Support Plan. Only the Direct Support Professional can monitor change or observe that behaviour concerns persist.

UNDERSTANDING BEHAVIOUR

Completing a Functional Behaviour Assessment may or may not lead to development of a Behaviour Support Plan. The regulations of the Social Inclusion Act direct developmental service providers to complete a Behaviour Support Plan for any individual who has challenging behaviour, and in particular for those who may require ‘intrusive measures’, even if only as a last resort. Intrusive measures will only be implemented when the full range of less intrusive interventions has been tried.

FOUNDATION POSITIVE BEHAVIOUR SUPPORTS UNDERSTANDING BEHAVIOUR PROACTIVE NTERVENTIONS

Principles: The main goal of Positive Behaviour Support is to use proactive strategies to increase behaviours that will help a person live a more independent and enjoyable life and to decrease behaviours that interfere with independence, enjoyment, and quality of life. All behaviour occurs for a reason and does not occur in a vacuum: it has a context and serves a function for the person. When a behaviour, which may or may not be 'challenging', interferes with relationships and participation, we must first define the behaviour objectively. Learning Direct Support Professions will be able to: Outcomes:  Observe behaviour and describe/define it in measurable terms  Articulate beliefs about challenging behaviours 

Identify how Positive Behaviour Support approaches can help in supporting people with challenging behaviours

Understand behaviour in context – the ABCs

Proactive interventions that alter the environment, teach skills, and support positive relationships and participation, promote enhanced quality of life and are effective at preventing behaviours which interfere with community participation.

UNDERSTANDING BEHAVIOUR

Principles: The quality of the person’s life depends in large part on their environment—where they live, work, and play. The environment also means whom the person interacts with on a day‐to‐day basis, as well as the quality of those interactions.

The following proactive strategies are included in Randy’s Behaviour Support Plan: Proactive Approaches  Increase staffing ratio for Randy  Staffs are to wear protective sleeves when working one‐to‐one with Randy and all other staff are to wear long sleeves and layers when working in the residence. Peers are encouraged to do the same.  Staffs are to provide as much attention as possible—Randy does not like TV, this is not a good activity for him. Actively try to find activities that he likes and that he can do by himself. If staffs need to go to another area of the house, bring him with you and find something for him to do nearby. Chat with him every 2‐3 minutes.  Have Randy help staff with chores around house. He does not mind being given instructions such as “can you help me?”, “sweep the floor”, “carry this for me”. He also enjoys cooking (enjoys stirring food in pots).  Keep Randy active during the day to use up his energy—running/walking on trails or indoor track, swimming at rec center  Tell Randy when you cannot provide one‐to‐one attention. For example: “I need to answer the phone; I’ll be back in 5 minutes.” Praise him when you return to the room. “You did a great job waiting!” Be as quick as possible when you do need to leave him.

Skill Building  Teach appropriate functional skill of asking for staff to sit with him or do an activity with him  Teach tolerance to being away from others – up to 10 minutes  Use Assessment of Functional Living Skills to determine skills that staff can teach him – functional 1:1 time  Teach leisure skills – increase the amount of time he spends on known activities and find new activities that interest Randy

KEY PERSON

When staff need to pay attention elsewhere, set Randy up with a preferred activity Praise him when you return to the room. “You did a great job waiting!” When Randy is using appropriate behaviours provide him with high quality, 1:1 attention

Resource 1: Principles of Reinforcement in Skill Teaching There are seven critical principles that must be followed when implementing reinforcement strategies for teaching skills (Hundert et al): 1. Immediate – reinforcement must be delivered immediately after the performance of the target behaviour to minimize the risk of reinforcing other non‐target behaviours. 2. Contingent – reinforcement is provided only for the performance of the target behaviour so that this particular behaviour increases to the expected level of performance.

4. Paired – all non‐social reinforcers (e.g., activities, tangibles) must be paired with praise that describes the desired behaviour being reinforced so the person knows why they are being reinforced. In addition, these non‐social reinforcers can eventually be faded while being maintained with praise. 5. Frequent – reinforcement needs to be frequent when teaching a new skill and then systematically faded as the skill becomes mastered. 6. Effective – reinforcers are only considered effective if they increase the target behaviour. Reinforcers will maintain their effectiveness longer if they are not provided to the person outside of the training session and if they are varied. 7. Brief – reinforcement provided within the training session should only last 1‐2 seconds so that it does not interfere with the flow of the task being learned.

Learning Direct Support Professionals will be able to: Outcomes:  Identify and understand the functions of behaviour  Give examples of the 4 main functions of behaviour

PROACTIVE NTERVENTIONS

Principles: Before designing interventions or building skills to address problem behaviours, it is imperative to understand why a behaviour is happening, what purpose it serves, or what the function of the behaviour is. Identifying the function of behaviour requires input from Direct Support Professionals and significant others. Qualitative questions with supporters and accurate data collection from direct observation is required to ensure that functions are correctly identified. Once the function of the specific behaviour is understood and confirmed, then interventions can be effective, and skills can be taught which will have the equivalent function. The result is that the challenging behaviour is no longer needed.

Lou starts shouting and storms out of the building.

Lou goes to his worker’s office and is not required to return to the group until activity is over.

New people are picked up on Anne’s van ride home from the day program and are coming to the group home for dinner. The van is noisier than usual.

Anne becomes very agitated, grabs one of the other residents that she knows well and drags her out of the kitchen and the house.

The Direct Support Professional redirects Anne back to the kitchen and offers her a snack, then tries to engage her in cleaning up.

When they get into the house, everyone gets involved in getting a snack in the kitchen and they are very high energy, with a lot of commotion and laughter.

MODULE 6 | Teaching Skills

Learning Outcomes:

Behaviours that challenge may reflect a skill deficit. Building skills (generally to increase positive communication and independence) will lessen challenging behaviours. Learning socially significant skills, as well as skills that will increase independence will increase quality of life, allow participation in meaningful activity and increase self‐esteem. Direct Support Professionals will be able to: 

Articulate the difference between types of skills and priority skills to teach

Use skill assessment and task analysis tools and processes to identify needs

Build a skill teaching plan

Demonstrate skill teaching strategies: delivering instructions, modeling, and prompting

Describe how to support skill use

Knowledge/ Skill Areas

COLLABORATING TO ADDRESS CHALLENGING BEHAVIOURS

Learning Direct Support Professionals will be able to: Outcomes:  State the goals, components, and areas of focus of a Behaviour Support Plan  Articulate the connection between a Person Directed Plan and Behaviour Support Plan  State their contribution to the development of a Behaviour Support Plan  Identify roles of staff and stakeholders in development and monitoring of Behaviour Support Plan  Collect data to determine if the Behaviour Support Plan is working  Identify barriers to data collection and implementation and how to overcome them  Monitor the impact of a Behaviour Support Plan  Understand and use debriefing strategies

GO FORWARD PLANNING

Direct Support Professionals have valued contributions to make to the development and implementation of a Behaviour Support Plan. They need to understand why it is being done, to contribute fully and to implement recommendations. They also need to identify when expectations are unrealistic or beyond their skill set. Developing and implementing a Behaviour Support Plan is a collaborative effort. A Behaviour Support Plan must be followed as written, and if this is not possible, new strategies will need to be developed. Call for help whenever this is the case. Effective implementation of a Behaviour Support Plan will generally require training and coaching, as individualizing means that the Direct Support Professional responses will be different for each person and related to each target behaviour.

A formal debriefing typically occurs 1‐2 days later. It is led by a senior manager, someone who was not directly involved in event, but is trained in formal debriefing processes. This debriefing would include a broader group of people—the team lead (mandatory attendance), other treatment team members, and advocates (family members) for the person. At the meeting, the manager would set the context by explaining the situation and the purpose of meeting. It is also important to set ground rules for the meeting, such as confidentiality, respectful communication, and emotional safety. After the meeting begins, it is then ‘closed’ in order to ensure stability of the group process. The formal debriefing steps would typically include: 1. Facts: What do we know that happened? 2. Feelings: How do you feel about the events that happened? 3. Planning: What can/should we do next? 4. Operational issues 5. Training issues 6. Identification of triggers 7. Identification of antecedent behaviours 8. Exploration of alternatives used and responses

2. Formal debriefing

GO FORWARD PLANNING

Immediately after an event emotions are often so high that blaming, denial, and other defenses may occur. Stay with facts and attempt to address a hierarchy of needs.

RESOURCES

Post‐acute event debriefing is done immediately following the event (with the staff involved and close to or in the area that the incident took place). It is focused on safety, security, Direct Support Professionals (who often do not recognize injury), and the emotions of all involved persons. The debriefing would in some cases include the person. There are several goals:  Return to pre‐crisis milieu  Ensure that documentation is accurate, complete and meets requirements  Gather and communicate event facts to members of the person’s support team, family  Begin to evaluate the need for emotional support up to actual trauma treatment

Source: Adapted from Rubino, C.A. (Ed.) Changing Behaviour: A comprehensive manual of applied behaviour analysis, 2nd Edition, Toronto: Ontario, Ministry of Community and Social Services (2000) ABC Analysis An ABC Analysis is an examination of the antecedents and consequences of a target behaviour. This analysis is essential in determining the environmental factors which influence the behaviour. It also provides a foundation for the development of appropriate behaviour‐change strategies. Aversive Stimulus A stimulus applied contingently that is likely to cause physical pain or extreme and obvious discomfort. Antecedents Antecedents are the multiple factors that form the situation preceding the occurrence of the behaviour. They do not make the behaviour occur; rather, they provide the occasion for the behaviour to occur. Back‐up reinforcer A back up reinforcer is an item or activity for which tokens are exchanged. Back up reinforcers typically include extra privileges, consumables, and other tangible items for individuals willing to work. Baseline A baseline is a measure of the target behaviour taken prior to implementation of change procedures. Behaviour Behaviour is what the individual is observed to be doing. It is neither good nor bad in itself. Any description of behaviour should include what is actually seen and/or heard, and not a reaction to, interpretation of, or explanation for what was observed. Behaviour Contract Behaviour contract is a written agreement between two or more individuals. It specifies the behaviour(s) required of one individual and the consequence(s) that will be implemented by the other individual(s) contingent on performance of those required behaviour(s). Chaining Chaining is a method of linking together the component behaviours identified in your task analysis. Chaining may be used in a forward or backward direction.

Checklist, use of a A checklist can be used as one method of behaviour measurement. A list of target behaviours is prepared and each behaviour is checked off as it occurs during specified observation periods.

Consequences Consequences are the multiple factors which constitute the situation that follows a behaviour. They are not necessarily the result of the behaviour. Contingency Contingency is an event planned to occur in the presence of a predetermined stimulus. Contingent observation Contingent observation is a technique involving the temporary withdrawal of the individual from a rewarding group situation following the occurrence of a specified undesirable behaviour. The individual is withdrawn to a nearby area from which he can observe the appropriate behaviour of those individuals remaining in the group. Differential reinforcement Reinforcement given when a pre‐determined response occurs in the presence of a given stimulus such that that stimulus becomes discriminative for the response. Differential reinforcement of alternative behaviours (DRA) Reinforcement of an alternate behaviour involves reinforcement of another more desirable behaviour that is not necessarily incompatible with the undesirable behaviour Differential reinforcement of incompatible behaviour (DRI) Reinforcement of an incompatible behaviour is reinforcement of a desired behaviour that cannot occur (e.g., incompatible or competing) at the same time as the undesirable behaviour that you are attempting to decrease. Differential reinforcement of a low rate of responding (DRL) Reinforcement of a specified behavioural response that occurs at low rates, after a specified interval. Differential reinforcement of other behaviours (DRO) Reinforcement for engaging in another behaviour other than the target behaviour. Discriminative Stimulus (sD) A Discriminative Stimulus is something that is used as a signal that reinforcement will be coming. Escape behaviour Getting away from an unpleasant situation that is already going on. Extinction Extinction is a decreasing technique that involves withholding reinforcement contingent upon the occurrence of the specified undesirable behaviour. It typically involves withholding attention when attention is maintaining the behaviour of concern. Fading (prompts) The fading of prompts involves gradual removal of physical, gestural and verbal cues that have been used to elicit the target behaviour. Prompts are usually withdrawn in the following order: physical prompts, gestural prompts and finally verbal prompts.


FOUNDATION

Maintenance Maintenance is the continued occurrence of the target behaviour during and following the fading out of planned reinforcers. Mediator A mediator is any person who carries out a behaviour‐change program. A mediator could be a parent, teacher, babysitter, workshop supervisor, etc. Modeling Modeling refers to the process by which an individual learns a behaviour by observing the behaviour being performed. This process occurs naturally and may result in the acquisition of either appropriate or inappropriate behaviour. Modeling may be used systematically in an ABC program to prompt (either) the target behaviour in its entirety or discrete components of the complete behaviour. It is typically used in combination with one or more of the other three forms of prompts. Negotiation Negotiation is a discussion between two or more individuals to determine the specifics of a behaviour contract.

Functional analysis Functional analysis is an analysis of the ecological factors that may impact upon a particular behaviour(s) including a thorough assessment of the following: the events that precede and follow the behaviour; the history of the behaviour; and the physical and environmental factors that may be influencing the behaviour. Generalization Generalization is the occurrence of the target behaviour in environments other than the one in which it was learned. Goal / Objective The achievement of a level of occurrence or extent of the target behaviour predetermined to indicate successful programming. Intermittent schedule of reinforcement An intermittent schedule of reinforcement involves rewarding the individual less than every time the target behaviour occurs. There are two types of intermittent schedules, an interval schedule and a ratio schedule. Intrinsically reinforcing behaviour An intrinsically reinforcing behaviour is a behaviour that is performed because it is innately satisfying to the individual. Performance of this behaviour does not depend on contingent reinforcement from the environment. Least restrictive To employ the least restrictive approach is to plan an intervention that is deemed to be of minimal yet sufficient strength or intrusiveness to effectively influence the behaviour.

Punishment Punishment is a decreasing technique in which a negative consequence follows the occurrence of a behaviour and results in a decrease in that behaviour. It may involve the addition of an unpleasant consequence or the withdrawal of a pleasant consequence. Recording / measurement a) Duration recording Duration recording is a measurement technique in which you measure the length of time that passes between the start of the target behaviour and its termination.

GO FORWARD PLANNING

Non‐contingent Reinforcement Non‐contingent reinforcement refers to delivery of reinforcing stimuli regardless of the individual’s behaviour, so there is no relationship between the reinforce and the behaviour. Operational definition An operational definition of a target behaviour is a clear and complete description of what can be seen and/or heard. Where appropriate, it will also include some reference to when the behaviour starts and/or stops, possible variations of, exceptions to, and special conditions for the behaviour. Overcorrection Overcorrection is a decreasing technique which involves requiring the individual to expend a great deal of time and effort to "correct" the situation created by his performance of the specified undesirable behaviour. Overcorrection frequently involves additional related tasks in order that performance of the undesirable behaviour and the resulting overcorrection procedure is less appealing than the performance of a more appropriate behaviour. Positive practice Positive practice is a decreasing technique which involves having an individual practice or repeatedly perform an appropriate or correct behaviour following the occurrence of a related inappropriate or incorrect behaviour. The procedure should be sufficiently prolonged and effortful, to make the appropriate or correct behaviour more appealing to perform. Premack principle A more preferred activity (a higher frequency behaviour) is followed by (made contingent upon) a less preferred activity (lower frequency behaviour), and is likely to strengthen or increase the occurrence of the less preferred activity. This is also known as the "First" and "Then" principle. Prompt A prompt is a means of cueing a specific behaviour. A prompt may be verbal, gestural, or physical. a) Verbal prompt A verbal prompt is a command, instruction, or single word from the mediator, used to elicit a specific behaviour in the individual. b) Gestural prompt A gestural prompt is a gestural movement made by the mediator which elicits a specific behaviour in the individual. c) Physical prompt A physical prompt is a physical movement by the mediator to cue or totally guide the individual to perform a specific behaviour.


FOUNDATION

Reinforcement a) Positive reinforcement A reinforcer is positive when a response, if followed by a contingent presentation of a stimulus, increases in its frequency of occurrence. b) Negative reinforcement A reinforcer is a negative when a response, if followed by the contingent removal of a stimulus, increases in its frequency of occurrence. Response‐cost Response‐cost is a form of punishment that may be one aspect of a token economy program. It involves the withdrawal of tokens for the failure to carry out previously defined appropriate behaviours or for performance of previously defined inappropriate behaviours. Reward/positive reinforcer A reward/positive reinforcer is a consequence that increases the likelihood that a behaviour will recur. It is something that the individual "likes" and something for which he is willing to work. It can be used to increase or accelerate a target behaviour. a) Tangible rewards Foods, drinks, objects, tokens, stickers, certificates or money. b) Activity rewards Favoured games or activities (i.e. biking, books, music, T.V., toys, free time) c) Social rewards Praise in the form of words (verbal), physical contact (i.e. pat on back) or gestures (i.e. thumb up). Social rewards are very effective and they can easily be given immediately and in any location. Satiation The loss of effectiveness of a reinforcer that has been presented repeatedly (usually in a short time period).

b) Event recording Event recording is a measurement technique in which you record the frequency of the behaviour or how often the behaviour occurs over a specified period of time. Event recording may also be called frequency recording. c) Interval recording Interval recording is a measurement technique in which you divide the designated observation period into equal time intervals and record the occurrence or non‐occurrence of the target behaviour. At any point during the interval, each behaviour is only recorded once per time segment, regardless of the actual frequency of occurrence of that behaviour during the time segment. d) Time sampling Time sampling is a measurement technique in which you collect a representative sample of a frequently occurring behaviour instead of recording every instance of the behaviour and use the sample as an indication or estimate of the overall frequency.

Schedules of reinforcement a) Continuous A continuous schedule of reinforcement involves rewarding the individual each time the target behaviour occurs. b) Intermittent An intermittent schedule of reinforcement involves rewarding the individual less than every time the target behaviour occurs. There are two types of intermittent schedules; an interval schedule and a ratio schedule: i) Interval schedule: An interval schedule is one type of an intermittent schedule of reinforcement in which reinforcement of the target behaviour is related to the passage of time. The behaviour is reinforced only if it occurs within a few seconds after a specified time interval has elapsed. ii) Ratio schedule: A ratio schedule is one type of intermittent schedule of reinforcement in which the reinforcement is administered after a specified number of occurrences of the target behaviour. Shaping Shaping is a procedure in which positive reinforcement is provided for successively closer approximations of the final target behaviour. It is useful for teaching new behaviours and strengthening weak or low‐level behaviours. Target behaviour A target behaviour is a behaviour you want to teach or modify. It should be measurable as well as beneficial and realistic for both the individual and mediator. Task analysis Task analysis is a procedure in which a complex behaviour is analysed or divided into smaller steps that can be learned more easily. Time‐out Time out involves the temporary withdrawal of the individual from a rewarding situation following the occurrence of the undesirable behaviour. It is a punishment technique in that it involves the addition of an unpleasant consequence (see punishment). It also has components of extinction in that attention is withheld. Token A token is a tangible object or symbol that attains reinforcing properties by being exchanged for items or activities for which the individual is willing to work (back‐up reinforcers). Token economy A token economy is a motivational system in which tokens are earned for the performance of previously defined appropriate behaviours and subsequently exchanged for previously defined back‐up reinforcers. Tokens may also be withdrawn for the failure to carry out previously defined appropriate behaviours or for the performance of previously defined inappropriate behaviours (response‐cost).

a) Randy is delivered praise every 20 sec (and sing and drum with him) and has free access to preferred activities (music, drum). No demands are delivered by therapist. ‐ If target behaviour occurs therapist ignores briefly and then resume play/praise. ‐ If any form of inappropriate behaviour occurs, including the target behaviour, do not deliver attention. ‐ If behaviour occurs right as you were about to give attention/praise, wait another 5 seconds before delivering it. Demand: This condition is designed to determine whether the target behaviour is maintained by escape from task demands. The condition involves presenting a series of instructional trials to a person. Compliance produces praise, non‐compliance produces a series of prompts, and occurrence of the target behaviour immediately terminates the trial.

PROACTIVE NTERVENTIONS

a) Randy is informed that the therapist is busy. She sits near him in chair and does paperwork. She ignores him. ‐ If target behaviour occurs, therapist screams, says “stop that” or “why are you doing that” and then ignore him again. ‐ If any behaviours other than the target behaviour occur, ignore these also. b) Randy is informed that therapist is going to chat with a staff member and ignores him. ‐ If target behaviour occurs, therapist screams, says “stop that” or “why are you doing that” and then ignore him again while talking to staff member. ‐ If any behaviours other than the target behaviour occur, ignore these also. Control: This is designed to be a general control condition, in which no demands are placed on the person, continuous access to leisure materials is available, and attention is delivered frequently independent of the person’s behaviour.

Assessment indicates that Randy’s aggression is maintained by adult attention. Increased reinforcement reduces instances of behaviour as shown in in‐situ hypothesis tests.

POSITIVE BEHAVIOUR SUPPORTS

FOUNDATION

SUMMARY:

TEACHING SKILLS

An in‐situ hypothesis test uses a design similar to that of a functional analysis. It is a quick switching of conditions. This test is conducted in the setting of interest and uses a functional treatment (based on the results of the Questions About Behaviour Function and most likely result from the functional analysis). The functional treatment is alternated with the baseline condition (no treatment implemented). For Randy, the hypothesized function is attention. Six days were used to complete the in‐situ hypothesis test. For three of the days, Randy was provided continuous attention from 9:00AM‐ 3:00PM and for three days; no treatment was implemented, though data was collected on behaviour. This assessment will be re‐run as Randy was sick during the last three days of the assessment.

GOALS: 1. To have Randy learn an appropriate way to ask people to sit with him or do an activity with him 100% of the time. 2. To have Randy be able to spend time alone doing a preferred, leisure or functional activity for up to 10 minutes. 3. To have Randy return to day program at least 2 days a week. 4. To have Randy participate in more sports activities at least 2‐3 times a week. 5. To have consistency in terms of amount and quality of attention in all environments (parent’s home, residence and day program).

Function of Behaviour: Data on target behaviours were collected by staff at the TORONTO residence in the form of incident recording (e.g., ABC); incident reports, scatter plot and questionnaire and interviews (Questions about Behaviour Function, and FAST). Data were reviewed to identify frequency, intensity, duration and discrimination of target behaviour and to determine likely function(s). A Functional Analysis was conducted on two days during March 2012. Four different conditions were run all based on a hypothesized function of Attention, and Tangible (from Questions about Behaviour Function). Each condition was run for 10 minutes. Questions About Behaviour Function The Questions About Behavior Function is an indirect measure designed for the functional assessment of behaviour problems in persons with developmental disabilities. Caretakers rate on a four point likert‐type scale for each item on a 25 item questionnaire. The instrument yields five categories reflecting the behavior functions of Attention, Escape, Physical, Tangible, and Non‐social.

In the form of grabbing and pinching others. This behaviour may result in bruises due to Randy digging fingers into flesh. He typically targets the upper arms and exposed skin. He may also bring the person grabbed down to floor or bring in the direction he wants. Females are targeted more than males. Before an aggressive attempt, Randy may watch someone and track their movements with his eyes or may begin to spit at the person.

Frequency:

Grabbing 4x/month

Intensity:

Result in bruises due to Randy digging fingers into flesh.

Duration:

Grabbing 1‐3 minutes

Discrimination:

Females are targeted more than males. Occurs more often when at the residence

OBJECTIVES: 1. To have Randy learn an appropriate way to ask people to sit with him or do an activity with him 100% of the time. 2. To have Randy be able to spend time alone doing a preferred, leisure or functional activity for up to 10 minutes. 3. To have Randy return to day program at least 2 days a week. 4. To have Randy participate in more sports activities at least 2‐3 times a week. 5. To have consistency in terms of amount and quality of attention in all environments (parent’s home, residence and day program). PREVENTION (ANTECEDENT STRATEGIES): 1. Increase staffing ratio for Randy 2. Staff are to wear protective sleeves when working one‐on‐one with Randy, all other staff are to wear long sleeves and layers when working in the residence. Peers are encouraged to do the same. 3. Staff are to provide as much attention as possible – Randy does not like TV, this is not a good activity to set Randy up with. Actively try to find activities that Randy likes and that he can do by himself. If staff need to go to another area of the house, bring Randy with you and find something for him to do nearby. Chat with him every 2‐3 minutes. 4. Have Randy help staff with chores around house. He does not mind being given instructions ‐ “can you help me?”, “sweep the floor”, “carry this for me”. Randy also enjoys cooking (enjoys stirring food in pots). 5. Keep Randy active during the day to use up his energy – running/walking on trails or indoor track, swimming at rec centre. 6. Tell Randy when you cannot provide 1:1 attention. e.g., “I need to answer the phone; I’ll be back in 5 minutes.” Praise him when you return to room. e.g., “You did a great job waiting!” Be as quick as possible when you do need to leave him. 7. When staff need to divide their attention to other residents or household duties, set Randy up with a preferred activity. Praise him when you return to room. e.g., “You did a great job waiting!” NCR PROCEDURE: (A separate program, more detailed, has been written for this program) 1. Set the Timer to initial delivery schedule – currently at a 22 minute NCR interval 2. When the Timer goes off, deliver the reinforcer –attention such as drumming with him, providing music/games for him to engage in, bringing him preferred foods/drinks, going for walks (for at least 2 minutes) 3. If Randy engages in aggression during the interval, continue to provide the reinforcement on schedule.  However, if aggression occurs right at the point the Timer goes off, wait 1 minute to provide reinforcement, to avoid reinforcing the aggressive behaviour.

MY DEVELOPMENT

POSITIVE BEHAVIOUR SUPPORT STRATEGIES:

Upon success, the schedule of reinforcement will be thinned meaning that the DRO interval will be progressively increased by 5‐10%. Apparatus required for intervention:  Timer – to prompt mediator to provide the reinforcer when DRO interval elapses.  Datasheets – Simple Frequency Data  Kevlar – Sleeves and Gloves

SKILL BUILDING (REPLACEMENT BEHAVIOUR):  Teach appropriate functionally equivalent replacement skill for undesired behaviour (e.g., asking for staff to sit with him or do an activity with him).  Teach tolerance to being away from others – up to 10 minutes  Use Assessment of Functional Living Skills to determine skills that staff can teach him – functional one‐on‐one time  Teach leisure skills – increase the amount of time he spends on known activities and find new activities that interest Randy. INTERVENTION STRATEGIES (TO USE ONCE PROBLEM BEHAVIOUR HAS OCCURRED):  Avoid giving the problem behaviour high quality attention. Try to act as neutral as possible.  Redirect Randy to his room or an area away from others with minimal attention (keep language at a minimum. Use gestures and avoid eye contact)  See Crisis plan Reminder: When Randy is using appropriate behaviours provide him with high quality, 1:1 attention PRN PROTOCOL With psychiatrist signature (attached)

FADING AND ELIMINATION OF INTRUSIVE BEHAVIOUR INTERVENTION STRATEGIES The purpose of the individual’s Behaviour Support Plan and the Person Directed Plan is to focus on preventative and proactive interventions and incorporates a positive behaviour approach to guide staff to safely and effectively manage challenging behaviour with the outcome of successfully eliminating all intrusive behaviour interventions such as mechanical restraints, PRN dispensation and social isolation. Recommendations for fading or eliminating intrusive behaviour interventions are:  Positive Behaviours Strategies listed should be tried and exhausted before any intrusive measure is used. The administering of a PRN is considered intrusive behavior strategies, and should be deemed as a last resort. If through successful redirection to preferred activities and ensuring that choices are provided and support is given towards goals we can eliminate his PRN. If a PRN has not been administered for 6 months we will refer to his consulting psychiatrist to have his PRN discontinued.  Continue to have Randy and his family involved with development with his Person Directed Plan.  Support Randy with all goals while providing choices and education on subjects of interest.  Comply with all aspects of Randy’s NCR Protocol  Communication between staff and new hirers, also include family. DOCUMENTATION:  Document all occurrences of problem behaviour as it happens or by the end of each shift. Behaviour data are reviewed on an on‐going basis for program evaluation and revisions to this Support Plan will be made as required.  The following is a list of all documents that must be completed for Randy. o ABC Charts o Incident Reports if applicable o Hygiene Charts o Interval Tracking/data collection NCR Data Collection; which includes Bristol stool chart, food log, and access to tangibles

IMPLEMENTATION AND MONITORING: All designated TORONTO HOUSE support staff are required to review contents of this Behaviour Support Plan as it becomes available during initial implementation, if revised, or during annual review on SOP. Managers will ensure that all support staff have reviewed by means of monitoring staff activities via SOP (Read/Unread document feature). Supervisors or designate will provide training, and feedback (7 step feedback protocol) to support staff to facilitate the consistent implementation of any strategies outlined within this document. Ongoing behaviour data will be collected by support staff in the form of ABC data collection and or Incident reports. Treatment adherence conducted and data collected by Supervisors to ensure that Behaviour Support Plan is being followed as written and to evaluate its effectiveness with dealing target behaviours, skills acquisitions and Consequence strategies with the goal of fading intrusive measures. The following individuals have agreed to the information, intervention and recommendations contained within this document with the exception of intrusive measures, which can only be approved by the consulting Psychiatrist, Psychologist, Psychological Associate, Physician or a Behaviour Analyst certified by the Behaviour Analyst Certification Board (Regulation 299/10, 18(3)(e)).

Directive: Take control of an escalating situation by setting limits.  Staff offers clear expectations.  Offer available activities.  Avoid power struggles.  Verbally redirect to quieter area in a calm yet firm manner. Clear audience from area, if not possible, direct Randy to a secluded area (bedroom, outside

Defensive: The beginning stage of loss of rationality.  Intensity increasing to faster more forceful pacing and running placing hands on wall once he has reached one end of hallway and projecting himself off wall and running to other wall.  Restlessness (cannot sit / lie down or focus on a task).In and out of bedroom, will not engage in any preferred activity Refuses to follow verbal direction will not comply with any request (covering his ears with loud vocalization)

COLLABORATING TO ADDRESS CHALLENGING BEHAVIOURS

Supportive: An empathic, non-judgemental approach.  Ask what he wants? Ask RW to show you.  Offer available activities such as music, drums, sports. Please ensure staff engage Randy during redirection to activity and quiet area.  Verbally redirect Randy to a calming area to divert attention (e.g., downstairs, outside for a walk at the back of house, rocking chair in back or alternative when on family visit etc.) in a calm yet firm manner.  Give clear answers to his questions, answer him.  Comply with reasonable requests Be prepared to evacuate peers.

Anxiety: A noticeable change or increase in behaviour.  Excessive pacing/running back and forth in hallway  Crying loudly, loud vocalizations, this will increase in intensity. And duration. Repeated requests for items or wants after he has received the answer or item such as Van rides, hamburger etc.
