De-Escalation Skills Training 2.0 (Self-Study)
Self-Study Webinar
SELF-STUDY WEBINAR
This webinar is clinically-based for anyone invested in improving their skills.
For New York State Licensed LMSWs, LCSWs, LMHCs, and CASACs
2 CEUs are available once the post-test and evaluation are completed.
If you worked in community or office-based settings, it is likely that you have witnessed a situation with a patient and client that escalated. Maybe someone was hurt, property damaged, the police called, the person taken to the hospital, or discharged from the program. The results do not have to be like this.
There is a framework of principles, techniques, and steps that can be learned in order to prevent and de-escalate conflict situations, and when we understand the WHY, the HOW, and the WHAT of escalating conflict, we can then create different, and more positive, outcomes.
Please join us, arm yourself with tools, enhance your practice, and the lives of your patients, clients, and their families.
By the end of this webinar, you will:
- Learned the framework of the Socratic Motivational Practice to increase the effectiveness of your work when preventing a situation from escalating and de-escalating a situation.
- Learned the Principles, Techniques, Steps, and Do's and Don'ts of the Socratic Motivational Practice to help our patients and clients when there is a situation that is escalating and how to help them de-escalate a situation.
- Increased your tools to helping our patients and clients using de-escalation, by identifying at least one thing you will start doing differently, at the end of the webinar, as a result of the Socratic Motivational Practice framework.
- Everything you want in one place, including an illustration of how to implement the newly learned skills during our role plays.
- Received your certificate by email immediately after your post-test and evaluation are completed.
