Supporting NDIS participants in rural and remote Queensland through telePBS

A number of our NDIS participants engage in Positive Behaviour Support through audio and video communication — this is known as telePBS.

TelePBS is commonly used to complement in-person support, for example, when a PBS practitioner meets via video call with an NDIS participant and their support team.

When in-person support isn’t readily available, for example in remote QLD, we can offer telePBS.

Much like telehealth, telePBS supports individuals in rural and remote communities to improve quality of life, making services accessible. Click here to learn more about telePBS.
