- Supporting young people who may display behaviours that challenge.
- Recognising individual triggers, warning signs and patterns of behaviour and responding appropriately.
- Supporting young people during periods of emotional distress or crisis.
- Following individual care plans, risk assessments and behaviour support plans.
- Supporting individuals who may present a risk of self-harm or suicidal behaviour, in line with safeguarding and organisational procedures.
- Responding safely and professionally to incidents involving aggression or violence.
- Using agreed de-escalation and positive behavioural support techniques.
- Maintaining professional boundaries while building trusting and positive relationships.
- Supporting with personal care and complex care needs where required.
- Encouraging independence and supporting young people to develop practical and social skills.
- Supporting education, appointments, activities and community engagement.
- Maintaining accurate daily records, incident reports and relevant documentation.
- Working closely with families, social workers, healthcare professionals, schools and other agencies.
