Description

PRICE (Protecting Rights in a Caring Environment) is the model of
behaviour management training that the Children's Homes Service would
like to re-introduce.
The programme places a significant focus upon preventative strategies as
well as the de-escalation and defusing elements of supporting behaviour
whilst recognising it is sometimes necessary to use physical intervention to
hold a service user to protect their wellbeing and the welfare of others. The
model offers staff a 'toolbox' of skills and strategies to better deal with the
everyday occurring situations that can escalate and develop into conflict,
without compromising the ultimate welfare and safety of the service user or
staff member.
A "train the trainer" model is used by PRICE. Trainers within Durham County
Council who are competent and capable users of PRICE techniques are
trained and provided with annual refresher training by PRICE so they can
train others.
This contract should allow for both initial and refresher
