Intensive and Complex Behaviour Supports - Sunday

Line Item Description

Line item 01_453_0138_1_1 provides NDIS funding for Intensive and Complex Behaviour Supports Sunday, delivering therapeutic behaviour support tailored for weekends. The primary aim of this behaviour support is to understand the reasons for a participant's behaviour, find alternative ways to meet their needs, and reduce and manage behaviours of concern over time.

Core Support Activities
Funding under this item is utilized to implement positive behaviour support strategies using evidence-based practice. Key activities include:
* Developing the participant's skills, such as learning how to show they are hungry or upset without relying on behaviours of concern.
* Making necessary changes to the participant's environment, like introducing regular routines or soft lighting.
* Providing the support team with specific guidance about the best ways to support the participant.
* Delivering positive behaviour support training for a family member, friend, or carer to ensure strategies are applied consistently.

Provider and Compliance Requirements
To ensure participant safety and adherence to NDIS standards, the delivery of this support is strictly regulated:
* Behaviour support must be provided by professionals with specialist skills in behaviour support.
* Providers who deliver intensive and complex behaviour supports must be registered NDIS providers.
* All interventions must be in line with the legislation and policy frameworks for behaviour support set by the NDIS Quality and Safeguards Commission.
