How PBS Reduces Restrictive Practices and Builds Confidence with Commissioners
🔍 How PBS Reduces Restrictive Practices and Builds Confidence with Commissioners
Positive Behaviour Support (PBS) helps providers reduce restrictive practices — and that’s something commissioners and regulators increasingly want to see.
From CQC Key Lines of Enquiry (KLOEs) to the Restraint Reduction Network (RRN) Standards, expectations are clear: services should focus on least-restrictive, rights-based support that promotes choice, dignity, and wellbeing.
🚫 Reducing Restrictive Practices in Practice
When PBS is embedded into care models, providers typically see:
- Fewer physical interventions
- Less reliance on restrictive environments
- Improved communication and engagement
- Greater independence and reduced behaviours of concern
This isn’t just good for people — it’s safer, more sustainable, and more aligned to sector expectations.
📊 Why Commissioners Value PBS
Commissioners want services that:
- Deliver safe, person-centred care aligned to best practice
- Proactively reduce the need for high-cost, restrictive packages
- Support people towards more independent, less intensive care models over time
When you can evidence this through PBS frameworks, it builds confidence, strengthens partnerships, and opens doors to future opportunities.
