Why Co-Production Matters in Positive Behaviour Support
Positive Behaviour Support only works if it’s truly collaborative. That means co-producing support strategies with the person themselves — and with the people who know them best. Not just professionals, but families, friends, and advocates.
🧩 What Co-Production Looks Like in PBS
Co-production in PBS goes beyond “consulting” the individual. It means:
- Working with the person to understand their needs, goals, and preferences
- Recognising family members as experts in their loved one’s behaviour and history
- Jointly reviewing support plans and behaviour data to shape future approaches
- Giving people real choice and control — not just token involvement
🎯 Why It Matters
When people are involved in shaping their own support, the outcomes are better — fewer incidents, more meaningful engagement, and greater trust. Families feel reassured, and staff work with clearer, more personalised guidance.
It also strengthens your tender responses. Commissioners want to see that you don’t just “do to” — you “do with.”
