Training: dealing with confused behaviour

Increasingly, social shelters for homeless people have to deal with confused behaviour of a complex target group. Drugs and/or alcohol are regularly a factor here. And there are often underlying problems such as psychiatric disorders, traumatic experiences or limited cognitive abilities. As a care provider, it is important to understand how to deal with this. How can you prevent escalation and how can you properly assess someone’s needs?  

In this training, we unravel what “confused” behaviour actually is. We zoom in on the factors that play a role, so that you start to understand how this behaviour can occur. And is “confused” really a fair term for this behaviour? You will also be given practical tools and advice on how to deal with this behaviour in an effective and empathetic way to prevent escalation.   

Each participant of the training will receive the publication ‘Understanding misunderstood behaviour’. This booklet has been specially developed for staff in social care institutions. It serves as a handy reference book and gives many practical tips that you can immediately apply in your work.  

This is an interactive training course in which we focus primarily on practical solutions to the issues you encounter in your daily work. My goal is to make sure you can apply what you learn in the training the very next day.
