Resources

There is a lot of information packed into the "Difficult, Disturbing & Dangerous Behaviour" and this has to focus on clarifying the skills needed by frontline staff to respond skilfully, effectively and with confidence to that behaviour. This means that there isn't always sufficient time to expand on some of the more contextual issues concerned with dangerousness. These videos are being recorded to address those concerns. They are called the Lockdown Videos because recording started during the second wave of the Coronavirus in November 2021.
