Specialist Group New webinar

Learning Disabilities Sub-Group - Positive Behaviour Support and Dietetics

Hosted by Learning Disabilities Sub-Group

This webinar will provide an introduction to Positive Behaviour Support (PBS), a person-centred approach used to improve quality of life and reduce behaviours that challenge.

Attendees will learn about the core principles of PBS, including the four functions of behaviour, capable environments, discriminative stimuli, and much more. This session will explore the intersection of PBS and dietetic practice, considering how PBS strategies and principles can be effectively integrated into dietetic interventions to support individuals to make sustainable dietary changes. 

The webinar will be hosted on MS Teams.
