Long term outcome of Multi-Disciplinary Interventions within a Positive Behaviour Support Pathway in a Community Learning Disability Team

If you have a learning disability, Positive Behaviour Support (PBS) might be used to support you.PBS is intended to teach helpful behaviours in place of unhelpful ones, and increase your quality of life. It should be available for your whole life in everywhere you might be.We followed up on 16 people who had PBS intervention that ended in 2018.As a group, their scores on our main measure (HoNOS-LD) were still better than when we first met them.Two people had died (12 per cent), 10 people still showed challenging behaviours (62 per cent), and 4 (25 per cent) did not. The four that did not weren’t receiving PBS any more.
