About The Event

This 4-hour live hybrid event will provide nurses and other healthcare professionals with not only knowledge about what they and their healthcare organizations can do to combat workplace violence, but it will equip them with self-defense skills they can use when faced with violent persons in the workplace. Nurses and other healthcare professionals will hear from a nationally known clinical psychologist on how to assess and implement violence prevention strategies beyond de-escalation techniques. As participants, they will also have a chance to practice self-defense skills demonstrated by a self-defense expert with experience in workplace violence prevention and personal safety.
