Welcome to positive Response Training

Positive Response Training provides behaviour based training to carers and staff who deliver services for people with intellectual impairments. Our courses are relevant to many areas of the health and social care sector, both statutory and voluntary.

The principal aim of all our training is the increased well-being and improved quality of life for services users. This is achieved through improving staff confidence in their ability to cope with whatever situations might arise through challenging and/or aggressive behaviour, and through proactive techniques that give service users better control of their own behaviours.

Our training can be delivered at a venue convenient to your location. If you have only a few members of staff who need training, they may be required to attend a course being held further away. The minimum number of people required to make a viable course is ten, but as indicated the numbers can be made up of people from different organisations. However, we will always do our best to accommodate any special requirements you might have, such as exclusive training for individuals or very small numbers of staff.

The costs of all courses are available on application, and depend on a numbers attending and the numbers of trainers required to deliver the training.

Positive Response Training delivers Direct Care Staff training, and also trains new trainers within organisations to deliver the training in-house (Train the Trainers).

Refresher training is necessary to keep staff up-to-date with developments and changes in practice and legislation. Refresher training is nearly always delivered in one-day sessions.
