Helping Hands behaviour support
Positive behaviour
support
Positive Behaviour Support (PBS) aims to create individualised strategies for people living with a disability that are responsive to the person’s needs, in a way that reduces/eliminates the need for the use of regulated restrictive practices. Helping National Positive Behaviour Support (NPBS) focuses on evidence-based strategies and person-centred supports that address the needs of the person with a disability and the underlying causes of Behaviours of Concern (BOC), while safeguarding the dignity and quality of life of people with a disability who require specialist behaviour support. “Both specialist behaviour support providers (who engage NDIS behaviour support practitioners), and providers who use regulated restrictive practices (implementing providers), must meet the requirements outlined in the National Disability Insurance Scheme (Restrictive Practices and Behaviour Support) Rules 2018.”
Applied behaviour therapy (ABA)
We provide Aba therapy to children ages 2 through 16 based on the principles of Applied Behaviour Analysis. We offer a hybrid model of therapy that takes place across a variety of environments including our centres, in the child’s home, out in the community, and within the child’s educational environment. Our therapy occurs across a variety of environments because it is meant to have impact where your child needs it most.
ABA is an effective teaching method – teaching procedures derived from ABA principles have consistently been shown to teach a range of important skills, including communication, language, play, social skills, and self-care.
In this intensive ABA package, we design and oversee comprehensive therapy programs to address skill deficits and behavioural concerns in all developmental areas.
Early Childhood interventions
Our NDIS early childhood intervention (ECI) services support families to reveal their child’s true abilities based in the principle of ABA.
We have a team of highly skilled therapists and professionals who work closely with you to develop and implement a plan that provides you with the information, skills and resources you need to support your child to develop their skills and participate in home, school and community life.
We deliver early childhood intervention services to children under seven years with developmental delay or a disability under a Key Worker model. Under this approach, your family will have one point of contact, a Key Worker who coordinates your child’s therapy services and arranges support from other team members. Your Key Worker works by your side, supporting you and other important people in your child’s life to build their confidence and skills.
