HASC is pleased to introduce the Crisis Prevention Institute (CPI), a new Education Partner. CPI is a global leader in offering proven de-escalation and crisis prevention training to healthcare providers and other organizations.
As a HASC Education Partner, CPI brings nationally recognized expertise in violence prevention and crisis intervention training for professional organizations. The institute’s decades of experience include a record of working with hospitals and health systems to promote safety for patients, visitors and staff.
Workplace violence, which can involve threats or acts that cause physical harm, disproportionately affects healthcare providers. CPI programs help healthcare teams prepare for potential risks by empowering them with skills to identify and de-escalate crises.
Benefits
Through this partnership, HASC members can access:
Prevention First™ Online Training: A 30-minute virtual course that gives healthcare staff an overview of verbal interventions and the four stages of a crisis.
Verbal Intervention™ Training: This session builds confidence and skills to verbally de-escalate disruptive behavior before it worsens. Ideal for organizations and staff that rarely face higher-risk situations,.
Nonviolent Crisis Intervention® Training: Equips healthcare employees with verbal de-escalation and early intervention skills to safely respond to everyday crisis situations with the least use of force.
NCI™ With Advanced Physical Skills: Building on Nonviolent Crisis Intervention, this course offers advanced intervention and problem-solving skills to staff who support people more likely to display dangerous or complex behavior.
Whether you’re looking to strengthen your workplace violence prevention program, improve staff confidence in managing challenging situations, or meet training goals, CPI offers practical, evidence-based solutions for healthcare teams.
