π How to Evidence PBS in Tenders and CQC Inspections
Positive Behaviour Support (PBS) is increasingly recognised as best practice for supporting people with complex needs β but how well you evidence it matters.
In tenders, inspections, and audits, vague statements wonβt convince commissioners or regulators. They want clear, practical examples of how PBS is embedded in your organisation and improving outcomes.
π Key Areas Where PBS Evidence Strengthens Your Bid
Most tenders and CQC inspections expect to see PBS reflected in:
- Service model descriptions
- Staff training and competencies
- Risk management and incident reduction strategies
- Governance, oversight, and quality assurance frameworks
- Outcome measurement β quality of life, reduced incidents, increased independence
The clearer your evidence, the stronger your position.
β What Commissioners and Inspectors Look For
- Alignment to Restraint Reduction Network (RRN) Standards
- Integration of PBS principles into staff training and daily practice
- Use of Functional Behaviour Assessment (FBA)
- Trauma-informed, least-restrictive approaches
- Evidence of outcomes β fewer restrictions, improved wellbeing, reduced costs
π οΈ How to Strengthen Your Evidence
Make PBS visible and credible in your documents:
- Reference PBS explicitly in method statements and quality answers
- Include examples of positive outcomes achieved through PBS
- Link PBS to your wider governance, training, and quality frameworks
- Show how PBS informs decision-making, not just frontline practice
Strong, structured documents make it easier for assessors to trust your claims.
