Professional & Behaviour Support Services

Empowering care teams and families through understanding, communication, and confidence.

Dementia Behaviour Support Packages (DBSP & Complex BSP)

Duration: 2–20 hours | Fee: $270–$2,700 ($135/hr)

Our Dementia Behaviour Support Packages are designed to help families and care teams understand behavioural changes, reduce distress, and foster calm, connection, and confidence.

We use a relational, non-clinical approach grounded in empathy, observation, and collaboration to create plans that truly work for the individual and their support network.

  • Behavioural and environmental assessment
  • Observation and identification of triggers
  • Tailored strategies for communication and engagement
  • Personalised written behaviour support plan
  • Coaching and education for families and/or staff

Why it matters: Behaviour is a form of communication. When we understand the message behind it, we can respond with compassion rather than control.

Professional Education & Training Services

Rate: $150/hr 3+ participants · 2–4 hour sessions

Tailored education and training for aged care teams, family carers, and community groups. Sessions build empathy, confidence, and dementia-inclusive communication, helping others feel equipped to provide more compassionate, person-led care.

Examples of Training Topics:

  • Understanding dementia and behaviour changes
  • Communication that calms and connects
  • Creating sensory and inclusive environments
  • Supporting carers and families
  • Dignity, autonomy, and personhood in care

Why it matters: When carers and staff feel confident and informed, the quality of care deepens — and people living with dementia experience more calm, connection, and dignity.
