Create a safer workplace for healthcare professionals with CPI’s Prevention First^TM Online Training

Prevention First^™ Online Training

Crisis Prevention Institute’s Prevention First™ Online Training is a new, 30-minute, cost effective, on-demand training created to provide healthcare professionals with the skills required to create a safer workplace. These skills include being able to prevent escalating situations of harassment, aggression and violence safely and proactively. The 30-minute course is designed as a solution to fit the demanding schedules of overwhelmed healthcare workers. It leads participants through a single healthcare scenario, including common behaviours that impact all staff from the front desk to physicians, technicians and nurses.

Prevention First™ can be completed when and where it works best, including on mobile devices for each individual. This limits time off the floor, making flexible, systemwide implementation easier for everyone, including administrators and workplace violence prevention committees struggling to find and implement the right tools. The course also encourages teamwork, as it helps healthcare organisations build a common language that improves collaboration and aligns staff across all departments during a crisis.
