NDIS Behaviour Support Plan
Template current as of July 2026. Provided by Lion Med Supplies as general information, not advice.
Important: a behaviour support plan must be developed by a registered NDIS behaviour support practitioner. Specialist behaviour support services must be delivered by a registered provider, and any provider using regulated restrictive practices must also be registered with the NDIS Quality and Safeguards Commission. This structure is here to help a practitioner and support team organise the plan - it does not replace that professional work.
