AVIP Format
The goal of the training program is to help you develop skills that will enable you to tell when a person in your care is
escalating to the point of violent behavior, and to react appropriately. If you can do that, then you can avoid
confrontation, stay safe, and keep others around you safe. You’ll be able to recognize the warning signs, and stop them
or divert them.

The standards require specified types of hospitals, including general acute care hospitals and acute psychiatric
hospitals (but excluding hospitals operated by the State Department of State Hospitals, the State Department of
Developmental Services, or the Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation), to adopt a workplace violence
prevention plan as a part of the hospital’s injury and illness prevention plan to protect health care workers and other
facility personnel from aggressive and violent behavior. The bill requires the standards to include the following
requirements for the plan:
 Policies that require all health care workers who provide direct care to patients to, at least annually, receive
education, training, and the opportunity to discuss questions and answers with a person knowledgeable about the
workplace violence prevention plan.
 Staff training in how to recognize potential for violence and when and how to seek assistance to prevent or respond
to violence.
 Employee resources for coping with incidents of violence, including, but not limited to critical incident stress
debriefing and an employee assistance program (debriefing).
 Information on how to report violent incidents to law enforcement (documentation).
 A system for responding to and investigating violent incidents and situations involving violence or the risk of
violence.
The bill also requires the division, by January 1, 2017, and annually thereafter, to post a report on its website
containing specified information regarding violent incidents in California hospitals.
California SB 1299 was signed into law on September 29, 2014. It requires the
Occupational Safety and Health Standards Board, no later than July 1, 2016, to adopt
standards developed by the Division of Occupational Safety and Health.

Mental Health Law
• Conservatorship
• DPOA
• 5150 / Involuntary
Commitment
• Voluntary Admission
Introduction Restraints & Seclusion
• Restraints and seclusion are difficult concepts in
today’s healthcare environment. On one hand,
restraints and seclusion can prevent a patient from
calling possible injury to themselves or others.
• On the other hand, the interventions have the potential
to cause great physical and psychological harm,
impede patient recovery, and damage therapeutic
relationships.
Workplace Violence in Health Care
• Violence is a long standing issue in
Health Care
– Assaults in the Healthcare setting represent
a significant number of injuries to
employees.
Extent of the problem :
• Violence against healthcare workers is a recognized,
but difficult to quantify, problem in the United States.
Many studies have concluded that underreporting,
different methodologies, and varied source data.
• Ongoing studies put the number of fatal and non-fatal
assaults over the last decade at approximately 5.1 per
1,000 healthcare workers and 69 per 1,000 in mental
health professionals.
Psychiatric Emergencies
• Life threatening behavior, including threatened or
attempted suicide, assault, homicide, or other violent acts.
• Life disrupting behavior, resulting from severe anxiety,
loss of contact with reality, mood disorders such as
depression or mania, or conversion reactions, among
others.
• Life impairing behavior that may result from intoxication
or withdrawal from alcohol or drugs, toxic or
idiosyncratic reactions to medication, or cerebral
dysfunction
Managing Psychiatric Crisis
• Healthcare professionals are involved in these
situations in the
 Emergency room
 General hospital
 Psychiatric unit
 Community Health
Elements - Violence Prevention
• The Five main components of any effective safety and
health program also apply to the prevention of
workplace violence:
– Leadership commitment and employee
involvement
– Worksite analysis; track and trend
– Hazard prevention and control
– Safety and health training
– Recordkeeping and program evaluation
Advanced Violence Prevention Program Elements
• Prevention
• De-Escalation
• Techniques
• Staff Training
Employee Resources
Common Tools include:
Staff De-briefing
Employee Assistance Program
Stress Management Education
and/or Resources
Advanced Violence Intervention and Prevention (AVIP) courses are designed for individuals working
within healthcare field. Attendees will receive their certification at the end of the course. In the health
care field, managing aggressive behavior is often an issue. AVIP’s course will help you to de-escalate
violent behavior and prevent assaults.
When crises are approached in a calm, rational manner, often difficult situations can be defused. Before
an assault or a physical confrontation occurs, and before a situation becomes unmanageable, the
potential for danger can be reduced and the people involved can be defended and protected.
We offer a full (8) eight-hour initial certification course and a (4) four-hour certification renewal course
that uses trusted methods of crisis de-escalation and non-violence intervention. When used in any stages
of confrontation, up to and including actual physical aggression, our techniques can prevent the need for
physical action.
AVIP Course Content
This class is designed for people who want to work individually or within a group. If you want to feel
more confident in difficult situations, though, you will benefit from this class. You’ll feel safer, act more
quickly and defensively, and generally feel more capable of handling yourself in situations that demand
strength over logic. You’ll become more confident when you learn techniques that don’t rely on strength,
and you’ll come to understand that no matter how small you are, you can protect yourself and those
around you from injuries.

  5. California SB 1299 and Title 8 California OSHA was signed into law on September 29, 2014. It requires the Occupational Safety and Health Standards Board, no later than July 1, 2016, to adopt standards developed by the Division of Occupational Safety and Health. The standards require specified types of hospital, including general acute hospitals and acute psychiatric hospitals to adopt a workplace violence prevention plan as a part of the hospital’s injury and illness prevention plan to protect health care workers and other facility personnel from aggressive and violent behavior. AVIP Professional Training and Development Programs meets or exceeds the SB 1299’s requirements using the bills specific guidelines for addressing workplace violence prevention from aggressive and violent behavior.
  6. AVIP Professional Training and Development Programs includes Mental Health Law training that meets or exceeds the State’s AB 508 requirements using the bills specific guidelines for addressing Mental Health Law and Behavioral Crisis Intervention and Prevention.
  7. AVIP Professional Training and Development Programs includes Restraint and Seclusion Training and Competencies that meets or exceeds the State’s AB 508 requirements using the bills specific guidelines for addressing Restraints and Seclusion.
  8. For many years, health care workers have faced a significant risk of job-related violence. Assaults represent a serious safety and health hazard within the healthcare setting. Violence prevention is a priority for your Healthcare Services this training program is designed for developing staff’s competency in managing assaultive behaviors within the clinical setting; reducing workplace violence as it relates to verbal and physical assaults and increase safety throughout the facility. The program is designed to provide a foundation that creates a collaborative effort throughout hospital organizations to improve safety in the work environment and a platform for which we can maintain ongoing development, as laws or regulations change. Approaching training in this way establishes a foundation which is flexible enough to adjust quickly to changes and healthcare treatment trends. Although not every incident can be prevented, many can, and the severity of injuries sustained by employees can potentially be minimized. Adopting practical measures such as those outlined here can significantly reduce the serious threat to employee safety.
  9. Extent of the problem Violence against healthcare workers is a recognized, but difficult to quantify, problem in the United States. Many studies have concluded that underreporting, different methodologies, and varied source data (eg, occupation classification and injury severity level) are responsible for the wide range of national estimates of violence against healthcare workers. Ongoing studies put the number of fatal and non-fatal assaults over the last decade at approximately 5.1 per 1,000 healthcare workers and 69 per 1,000 in mental health professionals. Underreporting may reflect a lack of institutional reporting policies, employee beliefs that reporting will not benefit them or employee fears that employers may deem assaults the result of employee negligence or poor job performance.
  10. Regulatory standards across the country are moving in the direction of providing mandated training intervention and prevention from Psychiatric Emergencies for all front line healthcare providers and healthcare staff. AVIP Professional Training and Development Programs meets or exceeds State AB 508 & SB 1299’s requirements using the bills specific guidelines for addressing Psychiatric Emergencies, Behavioral Crisis and Workplace Violence Prevention from aggressive and violent behavior.

In the health care field, managing aggressive behavior is often an issue. AVIP’s course will help you to de-escalate violent behavior and prevent assaults. When crises are approached in a calm, rational manner, often difficult situations can be defused. Before an assault or a physical confrontation occurs, and before a situation becomes unmanageable, the potential for danger can be reduced and the people involved can be defended and protected. We offer a full (8) eight-hour initial certification course and a (4) four-hour certification renewal course that uses trusted methods of crisis de-escalation and non-violence intervention. When used in any stages of confrontation, up to and including actual physical aggression, our techniques can prevent the need for physical action.
