Responding to Challenging Behaviours
About this training
Escalated and challenging behaviours often seem to come from nowhere, and it can be difficult to know what is happening and how to respond in the moment.
Provide your team with the information and resources they need to engage with clients who are displaying challenging behaviours as a result of alcohol or other drug use.

Creating safety in your workplace
Whether your organisation provides face-to-face services in a treatment setting or through broader community support, there may be times when people accessing your service are struggling to manage their behaviours in a safe way due to the effects of alcohol and other drugs.
This training increases awareness of the relationship between mental ill-health, substance use, and behaviour, and explores the ways to respond to people who are distressed or agitated.
By undertaking this training, your team will increase their confidence in responding to challenging behaviours and their knowledge of how to keep themselves and others safe.
