Behavioral Services
At Duet, our licensed clinicians conduct Functional Behavioral Assessments. Functional Behavioral Assessment (FBA) is used to determine the function of challenging behavior in order to identify the most effective strategies to reduce the frequency and intensity of challenging behaviors. Functional Behavioral Assessment includes a diagnostic interview, records review, interviews with family and direct support staff, and direct observation of the behavior in the home, day program site, and/or community setting in which the challenging behavior occurs. Throughout the FBA, data is recorded and interpreted with specific treatment recommendations that can be used to develop a formal Behavior Support Plan (BSP) and Safety Plan. Recommendations for additional services that may be beneficial, such as Physical Therapy, Mental Health Counseling, Speech Therapy, and/or Occupational Therapy are also made during the FBA.
