Abstract
Key messages
• Behaviour that challenges (BtC) can be a consequence of a person’s unmet health or psychosocial need(s).
• ‘Non-pharmacological’ approaches are the first-line treatments, rather than psychotropic medications.
• Service pathways for people living at home require different workforce skills and resources compared with those living in 24-hour care settings.
