6 Violence Prevention Efforts Contact Security for consults and security stand-bys for disruptive patients, family, and other visitors. Review the patient s care plan with clinical team when a threat or concern arises Security will communicate behavioral expectations for disruptive patients, family, and/or visitors. Behavioral contracts are a tool available to staff: Security will explain the expectations and get a signed acknowledgment of understanding.
7 Violence Prevention Efforts Code Green (Behavioral Emergency Response Team) Call a Code Green for any immediate behavioral emergency that you see (dial and communicate where you are and what the situation is). Call Security to respond to situations that are developing or may have the potential to escalate, no matter how small it may seem at the time.
8 Violence Prevention Strategies Individualized security plans for staff experience domestic violence issues, harassment, and stalking to include: Referral to employee s local (their personal residence) police department, The policy department for the HealthEast site, and county attorney s office as appropriate Order for Protection, Restraining Order Escorts to and from vehicle Personalized education and training Unit security assessment Home security assessment Connect the staff member with personal/emotional support resources
9 Prevention Strategy for Domestic Violence Protection Seek and apply strategies that make you unavailable to your pursuer. (Gavin de Becker) Hierarchy of Personal Safety Avoidance (Not being there, or, access denied to pursuer) Evasion/Escape (awareness, recognition, and getting away) De-escalation and verbal distraction Fast, efficient physical defensive tactics
10 Reporting As appropriate to the situation: Call Security via HealthEast Switchboard at 21111, or, your site Security contact number Talk to your leader(s) Talk to your Human Resources contact Prioritize your personal safety; you cannot care of anyone else or complete your job if you are not safe
