ObjectivesTo give participants opportunity to examine the events that create challenging situations
To understand how the actions of others may impact on a persons behaviour
To examine possible reasons for challenging behaviours to occur
To identify appropriate responses to challenging incidents
To understand how or why a person may need to challenge their support/environment
To introduce the Agency procedure regarding supporting people who challenge
To examine the role that communication plays in supporting people who challenge and factors that affect behaviour
To ensure participants are aware of the need for accurate recording of behaviour and incidents

Definitions Of Physical Intervention
By definition, a physical intervention involves direct contact between member of staff and a service-user BILD 2002
![Page 15: Introduction to Understanding Challenging Behaviour, Personal Safety & De-escalation Strategies CITRUS team.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062304/56649cf85503460f949c8139/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
15
Definitions Of Physical Intervention
“Physical intervention implies the restriction of a person’s movement which is maintained against resistanceIt is, therefore, qualitatively different from other forms of physical contact such as:
manual promptingphysical guidancesupport which might be used in teaching or therapy”
Harris et al, 1996, p6
![Page 16: Introduction to Understanding Challenging Behaviour, Personal Safety & De-escalation Strategies CITRUS team.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062304/56649cf85503460f949c8139/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
16
Definitions Of Physical Intervention
“In it’s broadest sense: restraint is taking place when the planned or unplanned, conscious or unconscious actions of care staff prevent a resident or patient from doing what he or she wishes to do and as a result is placing limits on his or her freedom”
Lyon and Pimor 2004
![Page 17: Introduction to Understanding Challenging Behaviour, Personal Safety & De-escalation Strategies CITRUS team.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062304/56649cf85503460f949c8139/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
17
DEFINITION OF PHYSICAL INTERVENTION
There are two broad categories of Physical Intervention (PI):
Direct physical contact between a member of staff and a service user, eg, holding a person’s arms and legs to stop them attacking someone
The use of barriers, such as locked doors, to limit freedom of movementeg, placing door catches or bolts beyond the reach of service users.
By definition, a physical intervention involves direct contact between member of staff and a service BILD 2002
“Physical intervention implies the restriction of a person’s movement which is maintained against resistance. It is, therefore, qualitatively different from other forms of physical contact such as manual prompting, physical guidance or simply support which might be used in teaching or therapy” Harris et al, 1996

What is proactive
Describes what you are doing on a day to day basis to help minimise the likelihood of someone displaying challenging behaviour
![Page 19: Introduction to Understanding Challenging Behaviour, Personal Safety & De-escalation Strategies CITRUS team.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062304/56649cf85503460f949c8139/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)

What is reactive
How we respond to a person displaying challenging behaviour
A plan should be in place for this

Reactive Interventions
De escalation – redirection, distraction stance
Not responding to identified behaviours
Withdrawal
Breakaway techniques
Physical intervention techniques

DEFENCES
There are a number of defences which may be put forward to justify the actions of carers implementing physical interventions which could otherwise be viewed as unlawful under the civil or criminal law

Group discussion
From time to time we all present behaviours that ‘challenge’ people around us.
List something that irritates you?
How does it make you feel?
What do you do to help you deal with it?
What else can effect how you feel and re - act

Blunden and Allen (1987) have said:
“The term challenging behaviour is used to emphasise the fact that the issue is a challenge to those who provide services, and to the rest of society, not just a problem carried around by the individual. The challenge is ours to provide effective ways of helping people to behave and express themselves in ways which are acceptable to Society”.
![Page 41: Introduction to Understanding Challenging Behaviour, Personal Safety & De-escalation Strategies CITRUS team.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062304/56649cf85503460f949c8139/html5/thumbnails/41.jpg)

Emerson et al (1987/1995) suggests the following as a definition of severely challenging behaviour:
“Severely challenging behaviour refers to behaviour of such an intensity, frequency or duration that the physical safety of a person or others is likely to be placed in serious jeopardy or behaviour which is likely to seriously damage or delay access to and use of ordinary community facilities”.
![Page 42: Introduction to Understanding Challenging Behaviour, Personal Safety & De-escalation Strategies CITRUS team.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062304/56649cf85503460f949c8139/html5/thumbnails/42.jpg)

Recap
Ordinary behaviours / inappropriate setting.
Serious adverse consequences
Personal judgement
You need to be clear about why you think a behaviour is challenging.
![Page 47: Introduction to Understanding Challenging Behaviour, Personal Safety & De-escalation Strategies CITRUS team.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062304/56649cf85503460f949c8139/html5/thumbnails/47.jpg)
47
Recap
Challenging behaviours are often extreme versions of quite ordinary behaviour. They challenge because they happen more often, last longer, or have greater intensity than other behaviours.
![Page 48: Introduction to Understanding Challenging Behaviour, Personal Safety & De-escalation Strategies CITRUS team.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062304/56649cf85503460f949c8139/html5/thumbnails/48.jpg)

Recap
Services have a responsibility to respond positively and professionally to challenging behaviours.

Fight or Flight
In relation to conflict situations we have an in built safety mechanism commonly called ‘fight or flight’ response. It enables us to
quickly evaluate a potentially threatening situation and then take whatever action is necessary to stay safe.
![Page 50: Introduction to Understanding Challenging Behaviour, Personal Safety & De-escalation Strategies CITRUS team.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062304/56649cf85503460f949c8139/html5/thumbnails/50.jpg)
50
Fight or Flight
Our behaviour in any pressure situation is linked to how we feel at the time, tired, fatigued etc, our attitudes beliefs and prejudices, genetic background, past experiences, family, up bringing and cultural background as well as present circumstances, all influence the way a situation is evaluated and thus responded to.

Over generalisation.
Jumping to conclusions.
Disqualifying all positive aspects of the situation.

What is Anger?
In your groups take 10 minutes to come up with a definition for Anger.

What is Anger?
It is an emotion triggered by feelings such as:
Frustration
Injustice
Humiliation
Threat
![Page 57: Introduction to Understanding Challenging Behaviour, Personal Safety & De-escalation Strategies CITRUS team.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062304/56649cf85503460f949c8139/html5/thumbnails/57.jpg)
57
What is Anger?
Although we believe anger to be an immediate response it is in fact a secondary response
Therefore we choose anger as a response to a perceived threat
This in time makes it the preferred choice of response which is then stored away in our subconscious
In fact, the more we use anger the more we will continue to use it as a response to a perceived threat.

Baseline:
The Assault Cycle is based on the premise that everyone has a baseline or ‘everyday’ set of behaviours, which are normally non aggressive.

74
Crisis:
The service user becomes increasingly physically, emotionally and psychologically aroused. Control over aggressive impulses decreases and direct aggression is a possibility.

76
Recovery:
The service user slowly returns to their own baseline behaviour. The service user’s heightened state of physical and psychological arousal can remain a threat for up to ninety minutes due to the level of adrenaline in the bloodstream.
