Recognizing emotional and
behavioral escalation
This presentation is based on material
from the Crisis Prevention Institute
CPI provides training on topics of crisis
prevention and crisis management,
including physical intervention
The priorities of CPI are to ensure
safety, and to prevent escalation,
including physical restraint
Think about a situation you have been in where
things were getting tense and out-of-control
What clued you in that things were
escalating?
What were your thoughts?
What were your feelings?
How did you respond?
How did things turn out?
Did the experience have any aftereffects?
