Abstract

Intensive behavioral intervention units are clinical settings typically housed within a larger university-based or medical campus that exclusively admit clients referred for the assessment and treatment of severe problem behavior. The urgent and complex nature of these cases places exceptional demands on behavior analysts and requires a unique therapeutic approach and clinical structure to provide safe and effective service delivery. The purpose of this chapter is to orient those interested in pursuing a training experience on an intensive behavioral intervention unit by (a) outlining the requisite skills for effective clinical application, (b) discussing the unique structure of service delivery, (c) describing the specialized training and supervision that goes into managing behavioral staff, and (d) reviewing some considerations for successfully navigating regulatory and funding frameworks.
