The PBS Gap: why plans fail and what to do about it

A live session for CEOs and Operational Directors on keeping PBS delivery consistent, sustained, and inspection-ready

 

 

Webinar on Thursday 1st October
11:00 - 12:00

A good Positive Behaviour Support (PBS) plan only works if staff understand it, follow it and keep it up to date. This webinar looks at why plans slip once staff turnover and daily pressure kick-in, and what CEOs and Operational Directors need in place to catch it before it shows up in an inspection.

Join Giuseppe Di Martino, Haringey Council Contracts and Quality Assurance Manager, Psychologist, and PBS Coach, and Kerry Goddard, a PBS Practitioner Lead at Specialist Homecare Group, whose PBS evidencing helped save NHS commissioners over £1.2 million. Together they will unpack what it takes to keep PBS working long after it’s written.

What you'll take away:

  • Staff consistency: how to keep a plan in place when staff leave
  • Training and culture: how to keep PBS training front of mind across the team
  • Warning signs: how to read incident patterns before they escalate
  • Evidencing good practice: how to build an audit trail that CQC and commissioners trust

If you're managing high staff turnover, preparing for inspection, or want your PBS plans to hold up under real scrutiny, this session is for you.
