BEHAVIOURAL RISK ASSESSMENT

Behavioural Risk Assessment Package

The ACRRE Behavioural risk assessment package is a unique offering, providing practitioners who are developing behaviour support plans across a variety of settings (e.g. disability schools, child safety) with a tool to undertake evidence-based risk assessment.

The training provides an overview of risk assessment approaches, explores ethical and evidence-based behaviour risk assessment, considers vulnerability of risk and develops skills in behaviour risk assessment. All attendees receive a copy of the tool to use in their own practice and certificate of attendance.

Sharon Paley is the author of Risk in Challenging Behaviour, a good practice guide for professionals, published in 2005.
