Non Violent Crisis Intervention
1-day Workshop

By using Nonviolent Crisis Intervention® training as part of comprehensive crisis prevention and intervention plan, you can learn how to defuse challenging and disruptive behavior before an incident escalates to a crisis situation. Successful implementation leads to a change in organizational culture, a change in adult professional behavior, and a change in staff relationships with both service users and stakeholders. These changes offer many benefits to your staff, your organization, and the individuals you serve.

This comprehensive certified Instructor-led one-day program (8.5 hours) encourages participants to share workplace experiences in order to develop solutions to reoccurring violent behaviour.

Participants are led through realistic role-playing scenarios to develop "team" responses to crisis situations.

Workshop Objectives:

• Reduce the risk of injury by decreasing the number of physical interventions.
• Improve communication among staff by establishing a common language.
• Boost staff confidence to intervene both verbally and physically.
• Alleviate the stress and anxiety associated with confusion or uncertainty in crisis moments.
• Feel safe at work again.
• Create a caring, safe and respectful environment for staff and those you serve.
