Benefits of Safety Intervention Training

Recognise & Respond to Crisis Behaviour

The programme includes all of the elements included in the Verbal Intervention program. Starting with these previous skills you learn simple behaviour assessment and decision-making skills to ensure escalation is avoided.

When faced with a behavioural crisis that places staff or others at risk of injury, you learn how to focus on the least-restrictive physical intervention to ensure the Care, Welfare, Safety, and Security℠ of those in your care.

Safe Physical Intervention

We are the only training provider that includes physical interventions that have been independently risk assessed, following published research which demonstrates that they maximise safety and minimise harm and follows international standards of best practice.

Essentially, we have taken the term MAPA® which was used to describe the full curriculum and divided it into two distinct programmes:

Verbal Intervention is the programme that enables you to teach all the CPI preventative approaches.

Safety Intervention is the programme that enables you to teach all the CPI preventative interventions plus the disengagements and/or holding skills.

Evidence-Based & Internationally Accredited

Our evidence-based approach has been successfully used for over 40 years and is nationally and internationally accredited by IACET, RRN Training Standards, RQF and CPD.

Safety Intervention training emphasises physical intervention as a last resort and only when appropriate to the level of risk.
