We had our senior leadership meeting this week. I asked for feedback on how the first cohort found the PBS Coaching in Practice programme. It was overwhelmingly positive; with a number agreeing that it was the best training that they have EVER undertaken. Thank you so much!
Really well delivered, it was so good to see my team’s enthusiasm and for them to have light bulb moments relating to the things I know that are issues within their teams. The trainer was really knowledgeable and has lots of real life examples from her experiences which is very powerful. All of the workshop days were excellent!
For our two new PBS Leads, the PBS Coaching in Practice Programme has been a great way to provide them with additional up to date training, giving them ideas and tools to use with the teams they support. Both staff have fed back how excellent the course is and how good the trainer was. This has worked well for us alongside the regular mentoring sessions provided by Redstone PBS.
I have been so pleased with the PBS Coaching in Practice Programme provided by Redstone PBS. Its provided staff within our organisation a really good understanding of PBS and also a tool kit to support them in their role. I think the folders are brilliant well laid out that enable the learning to continue. The check lists ensure that the different areas are being filled out correctly keeping everyone focused. No other company offers this which can be used as continuous learning without having to have a tutor.
The coaching sessions will be invaluable in ensuring staff have someone external to our organisation to talk to about implementing PBS. I have been especially pleased with the many tools provided within the training and we have now started using these within our own electronic paper free system.
Regarding the School wide Tier 1 system Redstone supported the school to implement.
Our children and young people want to develop and mature. The school wide expectations have given them a framework to do that. Alongside dedicated and caring staff they are now better equipped to self regulate and therefore make more academic progress. We have really valued the time and expertise from Redstone professionals.
Thank you so much, the PBS strategy review and development plan has been really helpful to us. We have realised how many elements of our support approach are already in line with PBS; it has helped us to identify where any gaps are, so that we can further develop our high quality specialist service.
Using organisational behaviour management (OBM) to embed a management culture focused on positive reinforcement, introducing us to a functional living skills assessment, supporting the development of the Periodic Service Review, pushing for practice leads, tracking the engagement of the people we support and ultimately collecting and using data that support decision making, I believe have contributed to the improvement in the quality of life of the people supported and better working conditions for the staff teams.
I just wanted to say thank you so much for the support Redstone has given the service as the remarkable achievement of the ‘outstanding’ CQC ratings attainable.
We like the way Redstone works as the staff teams are always happy to put agreed plans into place, which get results. We don’t have the usual issues of teams not following plans with Redstone involved.
Redstone’s introductory PBS session for our parent forum group in Trafford was so useful; it really led me new ideas and solutions that I hadn’t thought of before. Understanding how all behaviour works really opened my eyes to the cycles we can get stuck in.”
Redstone have been providing PBS services for individuals and organisations supporting people for a number of years. During this time, through my regular contact with the team, I can say that they have worked with some complex issues and have made significant positive changes for the people and the organisations they have worked with.
