Tailored Behavior Support Professional Services: Addressing Daily Living and Maladaptive Behaviors

Behavior Support Professional

Behavior Support Professional Services are provided to members with identified deficits in areas of daily living or members who may have maladaptive behaviors. Behavior Support Professionals may develop training plans that include member-specific methods of instruction to address areas of living a member may want to focus on (such as learning how to cook a simple meal or complete hygiene tasks on their own). Additionally, Behavior Support Professionals are trained to identify the root causes of maladaptive behaviors and work with the member and their team to identify methods of teaching replacement behaviors.

Behavior Support Professionals provide member-specific training to all direct care workers for a member. This training includes the likes and dislikes of the member, behavior interventions and strategies, and goals and methods that will help a member work towards independence.
