Life skills
Supporting you to develop everyday life skills that increase independence and control. Rosmed supports you to build everyday life skills. By focusing on your own specific goals, we can support you to master the skills you need to achieve greater independence, confidence and control.
Our training focuses on practical skills that you can use immediately and in the future, from handling money to travel training, meal preparation, personal presentation, independent living skills or literacy and numeracy. Building everyday skills not only allows you to be more independent, it also builds a greater sense of self-esteem.
Positive behaviour support
Supporting high and complex needs with positive and proactive engagement.
Rosmed specialises in providing support to people with disability who present with behaviour of concern.
By taking human rights focus and building on an evidence-based approach, positive behaviour support (pbs) focuses on increasing a person’s quality of life and decreasing the frequency and severity of their behaviour of concern.
Our specialist team of qualified and experienced practitioners takes a positive and proactive approach. Positive means increasing and strengthening helpful behaviour through learning and reinforcement, rather than using punishment or negative consequences to respond to someone. Proactive means anticipating where things may go wrong and preventing those things from happening, rather than just reacting when things go wrong.
