Prevention & Support

In the Prevention and Support class, students at Good Neighbor will learn proactive support and emergency intervention techniques:

  • The importance of knowing how to build positive relationships with the individuals that caregivers will support.
  • Positive Behavior Support and other proactive strategies to prevent and or reduce the occurrence of challenging behaviors by individuals.
  • How to identify a true behavioral emergency in the instance where prevention did not go as planned.
  • Students will learn how to calmly respond and offer support to individuals with challenging behaviors. The majority of the training is focused on positive support and proactive strategies.
  • Students will learn which of the emergency physical intervention techniques are used when a behavioral and or physical emergency is in progress.
