Around half of all people with learning disabilities and challenging
behaviour are subject to physical interventions. High quality training, to
increase staff skills and confidence and reduce injuries among staff and people
who use services, is therefore critical.
The BILD Code of Practice provides guidance for trainers and commissioners of
training who support adults and children with:
· a learning disability
· an autistic spectrum condition
· special educational needs
· behavioural, emotional and social difficulties
An important reference document since its first publication in 2001, the Code is
based on consultation with the Department of Health, the Department for
Education and Employment, the Health and Safety Executive and trainers. It has
been revised and updated to take account of developments in the field of
behaviour management and includes guidance on:
· policies
· best interest criteria
· techniques for physical intervention
· health and safety
· course organisation
· monitoring performance
· evaluation and record keeping
· professional conduct

Knowing how and when to use physical interventions in an ethical, safe and legal way is a key issue for many parents and carers of children and adults with learning disabilities and challenging behaviour.

The Carers’ Guide to Physical Interventions and the Law includes up-to-date information and advice for parents, other informal carers and care workers on:
· physical interventions
· employers’ responsibilities
· criminal law
· civil law
· human rights law
The guide also includes a wide range of case studies and definitions of key terms.
Supporting parents and carers
A trainer’s guide to positive behaviour strategies

Parents and carers are often the most important influence on a child’s life and yet they very rarely receive training in strategies to help them deal with challenging behaviour. Training delivered by people who are in, or have been in, the same situation as themselves is likely to be more meaningful and produce a more positive response.
This trainer’s guide is intended to provide parents and carers, as well as professional trainers, with materials to deliver training in positive behaviour strategies.
The guide includes a CD-ROM with PowerPoint presentation and handouts and, with
the clearly set out session plans, provides a comprehensive course that is
designed to be easily understood by those who may have limited
formal training.

revised edition

Price £20.00

This book gives clear guidance for services developing policies on restrictive physical interventions. It includes examples of good and poor practice, checklists to assist implementation, an agenda for action at the end of each chapter and a summary of key policy principles. Chapter topics include the legal framework, risk assessment and employers’ responsibilities.
The first edition became the key reference for anyone involved in working
with
adults and children who, because of their challenging behaviour, may need some
kind of restrictive physical intervention. It has been revised to show how the
four
core principles identified in Valuing People (rights, independence, choice and
inclusion) apply to the use of restrictive physical interventions. It also takes
account of the widespread acceptance of person-centred approaches to service
development, the introduction of the Mental Capacity Act 2005 and changes in
terminology.
The book will be of particular interest to:
● providers and commissioners of adult and children’s services
● schools and teachers of children with a learning disability or autism
● care staff, family carers and parents of children who present challenging
behaviour
● OFSTED and CSCI inspectors
● local education authorities
● clinical and educational psychologists
● psychiatrists working with adults and children with autism and learning
disabilities
● learning disability and RNMH nurses
