Resident to Staff Aggression Grant Training Opportunity

In Person | Salina, KS | June 213, 2023 | 8:30-11:45 am

Resident to staff aggression occurs, but it shouldn’t be thought of as just part of a caregivers’ job. Tools for prevention and response to resident aggression are critical for promoting worker safety and satisfaction as well as the resident experience. This interactive, application-based training will explore some of the reasons for resident aggression, provide strategies for violence prevention, de-escalation, and during incident response as well as post-incident response strategies that promote the prevention of future incidents. The role of policy, consistent and effective communication, and a workplace violence prevention culture will be explored. Interactive learning experiences and discussions will help trainees practice and apply learning.

This OSHA grant-supported training is available at NO COST and there is no limit on the number from an organization that can attend.  However, space in each session is limited and will be filled on a first-come, first-served basis.  Please note:  The grant is intended to train employees from small organizations (under 500 employees nation-wide) and organizations that are not local, state or federal government owned.  If you have questions about eligibility, please contact [email protected].

Make plans to stay for the Hands-On Caregiver workshop.  This half day training is available to anyone but designed for direct caregivers.  Separate registration is required.  To learn more or register click here for more information.
