As dental professionals and practice owners we have a lot to think about and manage in order to keep everything running smoothly at the office. But there is one thing that is probably not top of mind... and that's workplace violence. The odds of a violent incident unfolding in our practice is relatively low. But if it happens, the question is, are you prepared? So we invited Mary Govoni, RDH, CDA, MBA, to talk to us about workplace violence in the dental setting and what we can do as dental professionals to best protect our team members and patients. How do we identify the risks, de-escalate a potential violent interaction and ultimately decide, in the case of a deadly threat, whether to run, hide or fight.
