Navigating NDIS Plan Reviews

Tips and strategies for preparing for your NDIS plan review to ensure your behaviour support needs are met.

Overview

This article explores the key principles and practical applications relevant to Positive Behaviour Support. Our practitioners draw on evidence-based frameworks to support NDIS participants across Melbourne.

Core principles

• Understanding behaviour as communication
• Person-centred planning
• Proactive strategies over reactive responses
• Teaching new skills
• Environmental modifications

How it works in practice

The process begins with a comprehensive Functional Behaviour Assessment (FBA), which helps identify the triggers and functions of behaviours of concern. From there, a tailored Behaviour Support Plan is developed with input from the individual, their family, and support team.

Key takeaways

Implementing effective support requires commitment from the entire team. When everyone understands the ‘why’ behind behaviour, they can respond consistently and compassionately—leading to lasting positive change.
