RAID^® Evaluation.

RAID^® is a relentlessly positive approach to managing behaviour that challenges. When implemented across wards and teams, the RAID^® philosophy and techniques can impact:

• The levels of challenging behaviour across the ward, reducing the need for restrictive interventions such as seclusion.
• Patient wellbeing, hope and engagement in their care.
• Staff wellbeing and motivation.

We aim for RAID^® to be embedded across services and support staff in doing this. We encourage all teams that complete RAID^® training to monitor the results of the intervention and will recognise and can support staff to do so.

RAID^® projects submitted as part of clinicians' individual research.

The RAID^® Course. The positive approach to working with disturbed and challenging behaviour.

A 3-day course.

A relentlessly positive approach to working with disturbed and challenging behaviour.

The 3-day RAID^® course is the UK’s leading positive psychology approach for tackling disturbed and challenging behaviour at source: over 20,000 professionals have attended it. It is a comprehensive approach which teaches staff a philosophy and practice not only to deal with disturbed and challenging behaviour when it occurs, but also to prevent it by tackling it at source. Staff feel pleased to share a unified system and to know what they are doing and why they are doing it, while clients delight in a relentlessly positive and empowering approach. The essence of the RAID^® approach is to play down disturbed and challenging behaviour as far as safety allows, and to nurture and develop positive behaviour so that it systematically overwhelms and displaces the disturbed and challenging behaviour.
