Embedding Proactive PBS Support into Everyday Practice
Proactive support isn’t something that lives in a file. It should be visible in how your team talks, plans, and acts — every day, with every person. That’s the difference between a PBS plan and a PBS culture.
🔁 Daily Practice, Not Just Paperwork
Commissioners want to see that proactive strategies are embedded in your routines — not just tick-box exercises. That includes:
- 📋 Reviewing known triggers during handovers and shift planning
- 🗣️ Talking about routines, structure, and preferences as part of team language
- 🧠 Reflecting on what worked (or didn’t) and making small adjustments daily
Proactive PBS isn’t an intervention — it’s a mindset. Staff should be looking ahead, not just reacting.
💬 How to Show This in Supervision
Use supervision to discuss proactive support. That could include:
- What early signs staff have noticed recently
- Which strategies have helped avoid escalation
- Where routines have been adjusted based on individual needs
This shows commissioners that your staff don’t just follow plans — they reflect, adapt, and co-own them.
📈 Evidencing Impact in Tenders
In learning disability tenders, describe how your team uses proactive PBS every day:
- Examples of reducing incidents through changes in routine
- How staff spot and act on early indicators of distress
- Improvements in quality of life, engagement, or communication
It’s this visible culture that builds commissioner confidence — not just a training certificate or a plan in a folder.
