520 _a1Executive summary Research purpose and questions The Royal Commission into Violence, Abuse, Neglect and Exploitation of People with Disability commissioned the Social Policy Research Centre, UNSW Sydney, to review academic literature about ways to reduce the use of restrictive practices on people with disability. The review was guided by two research questions: 1. What alternatives to restrictive practices have an evidence base that demonstrates reduced use and/or elimination of restricted practices on people with disability? 2. Is there an evidence base that demonstrates positive behaviour support plans, when used in response to ‘behaviours of concern’, have resulted in a reduced use of restrictive practices on people with disability? Comprehensive, multi-level approaches are considered important for reducing and eliminating the use of restrictive practices. Policies that strengthen community-based strategies to improve home-based support and advocacy for individuals can help keep people with disability out of clinical settings, such as hospitals or other institutions where restrictive practices are most likely to be used. Changes are also needed in disability service provider organisations; data and monitoring systems; in the workforce and frontline practice, and in the ways people with disability are consulted and involved in making decisions about their lives.
