Targeting the Positive with Behaviours that Challenge

Unravel the complexities of effectively managing behaviours that challenge through the 6-stage Target model. The 6 stages offer an empowering tool kit that builds upon positive skills and abilities when working with individuals under some form of supervision or care. This includes children in home, care or school environments, and adults that need support related to mental health disorders, autism, learning disabilities or dementia. With a focus on: · Identifying behaviours · Understanding and empathising · Pro-active planning · Recognizing escalation · Responding appropriately · Learning from incidents The chapters provide significant information about why difficult situations arise and understanding people. A person-centred approach increases competency, confidence, resilience, and empathy so that caregivers feel more assured and settled about what they do. These effective methods build trusting relationships, teach new skills, and de-escalate situations safely, improving outcomes for both those who give support and those who receive it.

Sulky, Rowdy, Rude?

Children can go through difficult phases - this is a natural part of growing up. Conflicts and arguments are nothing exceptional, but rather a part of everyday family life. The authors of this practical and imaginative book show how parents can create consistent and effective structures, methods and responses, so that children can learn for themselves how to practise self-control and cooperation in a secure environment where they both belong and have autonomy. Based on years of experience working with children, including those with special needs, the authors structure their methods around the low arousal approach. With many creative suggestions and real-life examples, this book has the potential to change family life for the better forever.

Herausforderndes Verhalten bei Demenz

Menschen mit Demenz schlagen aus scheinbar heiterem Himmel um sich, verweigern tagelang die Morgentoilette oder rufen nächtelang "Hallo". Versucht man, eine Pflegehandlung durchzusetzen oder herausforderndes Verhalten zu unterbinden, kann die Situation schnell eskalieren. Dieses Buch beschreibt den Pflegealltag aus personzentrierter Sicht. Wie erkennt man Auslöser für herausforderndes Verhalten? Wie geht man gelassen darauf ein? Wie kann man mit einer ruhigen Atmosphäre vorbeugen? Anhand typischer Pflegesituationen werden Schritt für Schritt Strategien vorgeschlagen, die Menschen mit Demenz mehr Autonomie und Lebensqualität erleben lassen. Dafür benötigen Fachkräfte Offenheit und Flexibilität, gewinnen aber auch Sicherheit und Zufriedenheit bei ihrer verantwortungsvollen Arbeit.

Barn som bråkar : att hantera känslostarka barn i vardagen

Barn som bråkar, skriker och inte gör som de vuxna säger är svåra att hantera. Eftersom upprörda känslor smittar av sig, är risken stor att du själv snart är lika arg som ditt barn. Den här boken tar avstamp i vardagliga familjesituationer och visar på praktiska handlingsalternativ för föräldrar att använda sig av när en konflikt seglar upp. Metoden som används utgår från aktuell forskning och ett nytänkande förhållningssätt som kallas lågaffektivt bemötande. Författarna visar att beteenden som av vuxenvärlden uppfattas som ”problematiska” ofta är barnens logiska lösning på den situation de befinner sig i. Situationer med för högt ställda krav gör de fl...

Supporting Older People Using Attachment-Informed and Strengths-Based Approaches

The significance of attachment theory for working with older people has been overlooked, and yet its importance is clear - evident in the experiences of people who struggle to adapt to new ways of living, to life with limiting health conditions, or to new social networks. This book explains how an understanding of attachment theory can empower health and social care staff, and improve the care of older people. It also serves as an accessible introduction to strengths-based working, covering principles and practice as well as key practice issues such as positive risk-taking, supporting people with dementia, working in end of life settings and working with whole families. With in-depth case studies depicting a broad span of experiences and easy to use tools for practice, this practical guide serves as an essential guide for all staff supporting older adults. This hands-on guide will help frontline workers convert this policy vision into practice.
