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.
CS Question 9 What behaviours of concern would Maahir recognise in Naomi’s individualised
behaviour support plan?
Answer Biting and hitting staff which may have been a result of bitterness. The behaviour
makes it hard to deal with Naomi as evident in the case study.
Marking q Satisfactory q Unsatisfactory
CS Question 10 Why should Maahir consider what happened before, during and after Naomi’s
behaviour of concern?
Answer The record assist in recording the best way to deal with Naomi considering her
situation. Apart from that, a supervisor may need the record during assessment to
help ailing Naomi.

Read the case study, then answer the questions that follow.
Case study (questions 14–21)
Naomi uses a wheelchair and has autism. Her behaviours of concern are that she hits and bites staff
when she becomes agitated in the evenings.
At this stage, one of the interventions used has been to try and ask Naomi to count her breaths. This
only makes Naomi more agitated. One intervention that has been successful has been to run Naomi a
warm bath.
When Naomi’s behaviour has significantly escalated, however, some support workers have wheeled
Naomi to her room and locked the door. This usually worsens her behaviour. Eventually she calms
down and falls asleep. Maahir, one of Naomi’s support workers, is concerned about this practice as it
does not seem right and is not detailed in Naomi’s support plan. He talks to his supervisor about the
practice, and his supervisor agrees that this is against regulations.
The next day, Naomi is wheeled to her room, and her door is locked. While in her room, Naomi bangs
her head badly. She becomes quiet. When Maahir checks on her, he sees she is unconscious.
CS Question 14 Describe two appropriate intervention strategies Maahir could initiate to address
Naomi’s behaviours of concern.
Answer Avoid activities that annoy Naomi further for example asking her to count her
breathe as this strategy may worsen the situation.
Consulting a specialist in autism to assist on how to address the issue. It will
involve narrative the situation to the specialist.
