Priory Adult Care staff team members have received national recognition for excellence in behaviour management training
Nina Holyer and Mark Humphreys are winners of two of the three Loddon Training and Consultancy Annual PROACT-SCIPr-UK® Awards for 2020.
PROACT-SCIPr-UK® consists of positive approaches to behaviour management, which encourage the use of proactive responses. Priory Adult Care is a training centre for PROACT-SCIPr-UK®, affiliated with Loddon Training and Consultancy, who are the licensing body. Nominations for the awards came from affiliated organisations across the UK.
Nina Holyer who is PROACT-SCIPr-UK® Lead at Priory Adult Care, won the Marion Cornick Award for Innovative Practice for her development of new learning resources. These included a training workbook that has enabled colleague learning to continue during the Covid-19 pandemic, when face-to-face training has not always been possible.
