During my PBS training,I learnt that following laws and policies means ensuring our support strategies comply with legislation like the Mental Capacity Act, Human Rights Act, and Equality Act. It's about respecting individuals' rights, dignity, and autonomy while promoting positive behaviours. We also need to follow organisational policies on things like restraint, safeguarding, and data protection.

I was educated on various types of restraint, including Physical Restraint. Physical Restraint refers to any direct physical contact, device, or action intended to prevent, restrict, or subdue an individual's freedom of movement. It also encompasses manual methods of holding or limiting movement. Mechanical Restraint involves the use of devices such as belts, cuffs, or restraints designed to inhibit a person's bodily movements, typically for behavioural management or safety purposes in high-risk scenarios.

Some of the things that stood out for me; when addressing behaviors of concern, the least restrictive method should be prioritized and the restrictive intervention should always be the last resort (gradient of control). When we result to restrictive methods, we need to keep the person we support safe and others while we maintain dignity and respect. Restraints should be done with minimum necessary force. The trainer was very clear and good, the delivery of the training was very good and there was good and enough interactions between the trainer and trainees. It was a very interesting and educative three days of PBS training.

Response : Thank you, Abigail. We appreciate your feedback and are pleased to hear the training was clear, interactive, and supported your understanding of least restrictive practice and maintaining dignity and safety when supporting individuals.

This training as helped me to see how important it is to communicate well with the people we support by using various tools. In order to improve their quality of life. As for the practical part . It helped me to see how i can handle difficult behaviour in a calm ,safe and respectful way. It also helped me to see how to safely escape from physical contact without causing harm to the people we support, myself and others. The training gives me the confidence and the skills to handle such situations if it should arise. Overall it was a job well done. Thanks to Bani and Vanessa.
