A toolkit of strategies
Team Teach training helps every individual in your organisation respond in a way that is reasonable, proportionate, and necessary.
Our techniques promote a respectful, supportive approach. You will learn strategies that maintain positive relationships and encourage de-escalation together with a thorough needs analysis. For lower-risk settings, this may include low-level physical intervention techniques, including personal safety, guiding and prompts appropriate for the environment.
For higher-risk settings, our behaviour support training teaches strategies that ensure personal safety and the reduction of risk and reduction of physical intervention. Participants learn a framework of authorised physical intervention techniques specifically designed to support and respond to distressed behaviour safely. This training includes relevant legal standards and expectations related to the use of force, and reporting, recording, monitoring, and evaluating requirements.
