Course Description
Overview
The term Managing Behaviours that Challenge reflects the fact that some behaviours challenge workers, carers and parents. There is always a reason for behaviours that challenge, and in many cases, it's a way for a person to control what is happening around them. Health and social care workers must have the right knowledge and skills to help support these individuals.
This course takes 30-45 minutes to complete. It comprises engaging activities with fellow learners (maximum of fifteen delegates). After taking the course, you'll be asked to complete a simple multiple-choice assessment. You will receive a certificate once you have passed the assessment.
