This guide has been written for support staff, working with people with learning disabilities, who are new to challenging behaviour or facing it for the first time. It is a self-help guide and provides practical and realistic information on how direct care staff can develop strageties to support people whose behaviour is challenging and develop their skills in this area.

Keeping It Together is divided into six sections, each covering an aspect of coping with challenging behaviour.
1. Facing challenging behaviour for the first time
2. Understanding challenging behaviour
3. What to do next
4. Helping yourselves
5. What to do in the long term
6. What people with learning disabilities think

This innovative resource has been written in plain English making it ideal for those without formal psychology training. It also includes a section on how people with learning disabilities view challenging behaviour as well as a useful glossary of terms.

Professionals within the social care sector are required to undertake Continuous Professional Development (CPD) by the General Social Care Council (GSCC). Those who use this resource will be able to gain CPD points.

Vital information for: managers and direct care staff working in supported housing, outreach teams and day services, as well as support staff working in specialist health sector challenging behaviour services. Professionals involved in staff training may also find it a valuable resource to support their training programmes.
