About this event

bower(note)™ is a transformational protocol for the conduct of all meetings. It provides structure and process for meetings that maximises the quality of information produced in a meeting, the documentation of that information, and the prevention of that information from being lost, protecting all parties in the process.

  • Provides powerful contractual management and is best embedded in policy and procedure.
  • Cost effective and administratively efficient, removing duplication.
  • Remediates the fundamental inequalities that constrain problem resolution.
  • Aligns responsibility for problems with the authority to produce solutions.
  • Outcome driven with an eye to change
  • Ameliorates the misunderstandings and differences central to complaints.
  • Aligns the boundary between health, education and human services providers and promotes broad collaboration.
  • Manages student, parent, and school disputes and staff / leadership issues.
  • Deals directly with dysregulation, violence, abuse, and self-harm.
  • Transparent, inclusive, contemporaneous and legally protective.
  • A communication, recording and intervention process.

Learn the practice and theory of bower(note)™ in a full-day, face-to-face workshop. Participants will have the opportunity to analyse a case study that directly relates to their school context through the bower(method)™ framework for thinking through complexity.

Includes:

Professional Development: 6-hours (face-to-face OR live online available)

Group Coaching: Free 60min monthly (online Q&A)

About this event

Multi-symptom, multi-problem, multi-system presentations across all forms of service delivery has increased dramatically in recent years. Practitioners at all levels of training and practice working in this complex space often feel they are either sinking amidst the diverse needs and demands or struggling to make a difference in the lives of their clients. Why is service delivery becoming more complex?

In 2000, in Australia (and the Western world) the walls of the old mental health, disability, and correctional institutions came down with an exodus of children, adolescents and adults into consulting rooms, classrooms, families, boarding houses, and the streets; a changed world of high and complex (support) needs clients who require extraordinary clinical, socio-emotional, and practical support.

High and complex (support) needs are individual and systemic – located in a complex web of human services, health, education, justice, and disability systems – and present agencies and practitioners with significant clinical, and ethical dilemma. This is the focus of service delivery and therapeutic practice – where inequality, diversity, difference, technology and sexuality converge. Service delivery systems are now stretched and therapeutic models not fit for purpose.

This workshop will present a comprehensive methodology for clinical practice and service delivery with high and complex (support) needs children, adolescents, adults, and families. The focus will be on the practices and protocols agencies, schools, and practitioners can use to produce genuine inclusion and participation and make a real difference to intractable problems and symptoms – by dealing with the fundamental inequalities that constrain responsibility, inclusion, participation, and collaboration in clinical practice and service delivery.

Participants will have the opportunity to address clinical problems and symptoms in real world circumstances.

This workshop is suitable for anyone working in therapeutic practice or service delivery in health, human services, education, justice, and mental health.

The workshop is part of a major commitment Bower Place has made to developing therapeutic practice, service delivery, and training in Riverland SA, Victoria and NSW.
