A potentially violent situation is an unsettling situation for everyone involved. The person who has “acted out” may run the gamut of emotions from fear to embarrassment. The person who attempts to intervene is subject to tremendous stress and fear for his/her own personal safety.
Nonviolent Crisis Intervention Training: This refresher training is for staff that has previously received the training, and needs recertification. Nonviolent Crisis Intervention Training will teach you skills, which allow you to do the following: identify the potential for violent or disruptive behavior; reduce tensions; prevent violent episodes; intervene safely in violent situations and develop safe humanistic approaches to crisis intervention.
As a refresher, training you will also develop the following skills:
• Gain a deeper understanding about why behaviors occur and how to prevent behaviors from occurring.
• Explore appropriate adaptations and interventions that specifically address the needs of and learning styles of people.
• Develop skills to see crisis through the eyes of individuals with Autism Spectrum Disorder.
• Problem solves a variety of scenarios that staff my encounter during a crisis when supporting individuals with Autism Spectrum Disorder.
