Positive Behaviour Support (PBS)
We deliver Positive Behaviour Support that puts People First
At Kennix Care Behavioural Services, we deliver Positive Behaviour Support (PBS) that is respectful, practical, and centred on the individual. PBS is a proven, evidence-based approach that looks beyond behaviours of concern to understand their underlying causes.
Instead of simply trying to control behaviour, we focus on reducing distress, building positive skills, and improving overall quality of life for NDIS participants and their support networks.
