About Support Studio

Support Studio is a different kind of organisation; a place where people, teamwork and fun are prioritised. We provide specialised support services to people living with mental health and disability.

About the role

This position is a Proficient or Advanced Practitioner role, having met Proficient or Advanced Practitioner level capabilities. Ongoing professional development and supervision is provided.

Our Behaviour Support program uses individualised strategies for people with a disability, reducing the potential for behaviour that puts a person and those around them at risk. As a member of our Behaviour Support Team, you will work alongside people with disability and their supports, to develop a Behaviour Support Plan, which includes evidenced-based strategies, skill development, and training for the person and their support network.

Tasks

Develop, implement, monitor, and review, interim and comprehensive behaviour support plans.
Provide formal and informal supervision, secondary consultation, and support, to other practitioners.
Assist in the recruitment, onboarding, induction, and ongoing support of Behaviour Support Practitioners.
Play an active role in promoting and marketing the services provided by Support Studio, to help grow our Behaviour Support teams.
Engage with key stakeholders, through attendance at network meetings and services visits.
Provide debriefing, training, and reflective practice to other members of the team.
Contribute to high quality Behaviour Support services by regularly reviewing and supervising the work of other practitioners, including the development of Behaviour Support Plans.
Support the intake and allocation of new Behaviour Support referrals.
Develop goals, practical strategies, and interventions that are evidenced-based and person-centred.
Complete Functional Behaviour Assessments to understand the underlying causes/functions of behaviours with the potential to cause harm.
Lodge Behaviour Support Plans with the appropriate legislative body (i.e. NDIS Quality and Safeguard Commission and State Based systems).
Improve the quality of life and minimise risk/complexities for individuals who present with behaviours with the potential to cause harm.
Work towards eliminating restrictive practices.
Provide training and support to individuals and their support network, regarding behaviours with the potential to cause harm.
Safeguard the dignity and quality of life of people with disability who require behaviour support.
Work collaboratively within a multi-disciplinary team.
Receive supervision (individual, peer, and group), and individualised professional development planning, in line with the Behaviour Support Capability Framework.

A degree in Behaviour Support, Psychology, Social Work, Allied Health or other relevant Tertiary Qualification.
Current suitability - confirmed by the NDIS Quality and Safeguards Commission – and endorsement at the Proficient or Advanced Practitioner level.
Driver’s license, National Police Check, Working with Children’s Check and NDIS Worker Screening Check.

Extensive knowledge of behaviour support principles, including functional behaviour assessments, behaviour support plans, and restrictive practices.
