The ARC (Assess, Respond, Care) model is fundamentally underpinned by Valuing People 2009 and the Department of Health’s Positive and Proactive Care (2014). The ARC Model aims to support staff working in Health & Social Care and Educational settings in the United Kingdom, to develop skills and knowledge in relation to supporting children and adults who have complex support needs and behaviours of concern, associated with Learning Disabilities, Autistic Spectrum Condition, Dementia, Mental Health issues and Acquired Brain Injury.

ARC training places a strong emphasis on Positive Behaviour Support and the principles of ‘proactive support’ ‘least restrictive and last resort’ strategies. Embedded within the model are BILD’s Positive Behaviour Support Principles (PBSP) and Core Competency Framework and the Restraint Reduction Network (RRN) Training Standards 2020.

ARC is a model which promotes Positive Behaviour Support Principles and has been designed for use with adults and children. It encompasses PBS theory content that focuses on Primary, Secondary and Tertiary Interventions (aligned to the Public Health Model), offering a range of de-escalation strategies, personal protection and safe holding techniques, designed and RRN Approved Certification. This ensures that our ARC model is consistent with supporting adults and children across Health, Social Care and Education with dignity, respect and compassion.

ARC offers 3 levels of complimentary training depending upon the support needs of individuals the needs of your staff members and the Organisation. Please follow the ARC links below for further course information.
