Nonviolent Crisis Intervention® Training Program

[@dr.camaled.7085]

I have been teaching CPI for over ten years. The skills work if you understand the philosophy of Care, Welfare, Safety, & Security. This is not self defense, CPI is design to provide Safety for everyone involved.

what is the different between this and Tactical communications to me they seem the same but use different names

[@shampoovta]

This training is brilliant! I worked with emotionally disturbed children for 12 years and challenged teens with gang affiliations for around 9. This training enabled me to handle situations without violence.

How can one take a class and or get a job?

[@braddenrowley5896]

Most entry level positions in behavioral health facilities or youth homes will offer a cpi course for handling behaviors in the facility. But I believe you can also locate classes on the cpi website.

how long are you taught to restrain a person/child through cpi training? Is there a maximum?

[@crisisprevention]

Hey +john leitch, thanks for your question! There's actually a longer answer to it: CPI teaches that restraint should only be used as an absolute last resort emergency intervention, to be used after all attempts to verbally deescalate the individual have been exhausted and when the risks associated with the person’s behavior outweigh the risks associated with the intervention itself. All forms of physical restraint carry some level of risk to the person and to the staff involved. The intervention should end when the risks of the behavior have decreased to the point where the risk of the person’s behavior no longer outweighs the risk of the intervention. In many cases, this can be within a minute or two. CPI does not teach to a maximum time limit for the intervention, except in cases where a state has put forth legislation doing so. Often a maximum time limit on the intervention can be misconstrued as meaning that the intervention should last that long. This can result in a situation where staff might hold an individual longer (or shorter) than the risks would indicate are necessary for the safety of everyone involved. We’d rather that staff pay attention to the individual in crisis than watch a clock. That said, staff should consult their state regulations and their local policy, as there are a few regions where time limits have been put in place.
