The Northwest MHTTC is excited to partner with Martin Reinsel to offer a live learning community on trauma informed de-escalation. 6 hours of CE contact hours available* (see below.)
This highly interactive learning community will focus on providing participants with a framework for developing their personal awareness during instances of de-escalation, while utilizing principals of trauma informed care to increase competencies during and after a crisis. Participants will learn the “Spectrum of Escalation" and elements of personal preparedness, while focusing on prevention and early intervention and post-intervention practices. Through these methods, participants will enhance confidence in managing complex behavioral situations.
