CHCOIS002 Follow established person-centred behaviour supports - Assessments Read the case study, then answer the questions that follow. Case study (questions 9-13) Maahir works as a disability support worker. One of the people he supports is Naomi, who uses a wheelchair, and has autism. Naomi is 16. In recent months, Naomi's behaviour has changed significantly. She's been biting and hitting staff, raising her voice at staff and other people in support and refusing to comply with requests. Maahir and his team look at Naomi's individualised behaviour support plan. At this stage, there is no current information about Naomi's behaviours of concern, as the behaviours are quite recent. The individualised support plan says that Naomi's agitation increases in the evening, and meditation techniques or a bath are recommended Maahir's supervisor, Karen, organises for an integrated assessment to take place. As part of the assessment, she asks Maahir and other team members to observe Naomi's behaviour and record the type, frequency and triggers of the behaviours of concern to try and identify context. Maahir observes that Naomi tends to become stressed at the end of the day around meal time. When she is asked to eat, she refuses, and then her behaviour escalates. Most of the biting and hitting behaviour happens around this time. Her behaviour tends to escalate most evenings, and results in hitting and biting at least twice a week. These days usually correspond with family visits Naomi's mother and sister visit twice a week. Sometimes they take Naomi on an outing

Enviormental factors are any factors biotic or abiotic that influences the living person. Here Naomi behavioral changes may be due to these enviornment factors. The possible enviormental factors are.. 1.Stress :Stress is an enviornmental factor that influence a person mentally, Here naomi is an autism gitl. Her family members are visiting her weakly twice. May be during their visit she may feels stress because of the over exicitment and or may be she feels like her family members are far away from her and they are avoiding her and they placed her in disability center.. that frustration may cause behavior changes in naomi during evening time. 2. Social phobia: Naomi is family members are vising her weakly twice and they take her for outing. Naomi is in wheel chair and she is an autism girl. During her outing she can see the society people and they are not like her.They can do what ever they want. But naomi cant and she may feel some fear or phobia when seeing others beacuse in society always seeing this kind of girl in a different way. That 's why is feels fear to face the people. This outing also leads anxiety in Naomi and cause her behavior change.
