Testimonials | ||
"I have been providing behavioral services to a diverse array of disability groups for the past 25 years. I have been certified since 1989 and board certified since 2003. As a Behavior Analyst, I have a deep appreciation for the principles incorporated throughout PCM that have a teaching versus punitive basis. The focus is on building and maximizing relationships, preserving human dignity, and keeping individuals free from pain using the least restrictive procedures... The pro-active approaches are what sets it apart. There have been numerous times during application in various facilities when I have directly observed the behavior of individuals being shaped into more appropriate repertoires through the use of PCM procedures...Thank you PCMA. You have made a difficult job a whole lot easier." Camille Pedone Senior Behavior Analyst, MA, BCBA | ||
"Staff injuries are WAY down since we adopted PCM. Our staff turnover is WAY down as well. I believe the practical testing strategies used in the PCM classes work well." Brent Smith |
