This is a call to action for everyone. Workplace violence is impacting everyone in healthcare and higher education.

Hear from leaders in all sectors about the evolving definitions, emerging threats, and potential for solutions.

Learn how to build the case for support to protect all in your ecosystem.

This is a call to action for caregivers and community leaders. Caregivers, teachers, risk managers, safety leaders, educators, scout leaders, lifeguards, and coaches must step up to address Preventable Death and Severe Injury to our youth and families. See our recent December and November Webinars.

Our Public Safety Net has never been more stressed, and our Public Health Education programs can’t keep up with the threats.

In this webinar, you will be provided with the latest concepts, tools, and resources to address emergencies:

• Opioid Overdose Poisoning: These are claiming almost 300 Americans a day. Counterfeit medications laced with fentanyl, vaping, and THC overdoses are threatening our youth and workforce.

• Major Trauma: Everyone needs to learn to control severe bleeding and trauma, such as provided by the Stop-the-Bleed®. Concussion best practices are evolving. All need to know what to do.

• CPR and AED Use: The latest guidelines need to be explained, and deliberative practice will pay off. The case for CPR/AED certification has never been stronger.

• Choking and Drowning: A major cause of death in our young, with many deaths and harm preventable.

• Anaphylaxis: Still a major problem requiring educators and families to prioritize best practices and availability of epinephrine injectors.

• Infections: The current tri-demic of flu, RSV, and Covid demand that we underscore the basics.

• Transportation Accidents: Drive-over accidents of children and bystander care at motor vehicle accidents claim way too many lives.

Learn how to teach bystander care practices to those in your community. Families you serve can dramatically reduce risk, harm, and liability.

Preventable Death and Severe Injury to students educators, caregivers, and staff is on the rise. See our November 2022 Webinar.

They are occurring on and off campus. Students and all families can act over the holidays to have a much safer 2023.

In this webinar we will provide concepts, tools, and resources students, families, educators, and caregivers can apply:

• Prevention: Both primary prevention of events at all and secondary prevention of harm from unavoidable events.

• Preparedness: Readiness for incidents that can impact our youth, young adults, and their friends including detailed checklists and plans.

• Protection: Reduction of harm from unavoidable events with emphasis on Bystander Rescue Skills.

• Performance Improvement: What we can learn from prior incidents of opioid, alcohol, and THC poisoning all of which may be related to falls and motor-vehicle accidents. And less common choking, drowning, and lethal force incidents.

Learn how to reduce risk, harm, and liability for severe trauma, motor vehicle accidents, opioid overdose, vaping, drowning, choking, and the other common causes of harm to our youth and young adults. Be ready for less common lethal force incidents of active shooters and stabbings.

Both invisible and visible threats cause unintentional and preventable Death and Severe Injury to educators, caregivers, staff, and students. The risks of these are growing and extends far beyond active shooter events. Not only are they occurring onsite, but in the community.

Many leaders feel responsible for the public safety of their staff and students families in the community.

Leaders from healthcare organizations and institutions of higher learning are working to deal with an accelerating threat stream. Over the months to come we will be addressing the 30 threats keeping leaders up at night. In this webinar we will cover unintentional death and harm due to:

• Accidents: That occur on campus as well as off campus to staff and students.

• Failure to Rescue: Deaths and harm that may be preventable with non-medical bystanders rescue care.

• Opioid OD & Poisoning: Opioid related deaths due to overdoses and from counterfeit drugs laced with fentanyl cause 293 deaths per day in the U.S.

Learn from leaders of our finest large and small institutions and how they are dealing with both visible and invisible threats.

There are at least 30 emerging threats keeping leaders up at night. They range from active shooter and lethal force incidents to employee fraud, medical harm, and cybersecurity issues. Many policies and the unwritten rules governing our healthcare providers are destroying their brands.

Leaders from large and small academic and regional centers are working to deal with an accelerating threat stream. We will cover 30 topics that will drive our agenda for the next year.

• Inside Threats: Insider threats are just the tip of the iceberg. There are clinical, operational, and financial policies and actors who are responsible for enormous harm to caregivers, administrative staff, and the patients they serve.

• Outside Threats: The COVID crisis has truly tested our public safety system and our healthcare institutions. There are outside threats that may be low frequency, yet so high impact that we need to be prepared.

Learn from leaders of our finest large and small institutions and how they are dealing with both visible and invisible threats.

The recent dramatic rise in active shooter and lethal force incidents demands that our organizations, caregivers, the public, our youth, and our families be prepared.

Critical factors include:

• Fixed Structures and Systems

• Population Kinetics

• Special Events

• Unanticipated Surge Events

• Competency Currency of Rescue Care

• Regular Simulation Events

The sweet spot for High Performance Care is at the intersections of leadership, practices, and technologies. Magical thinking will not save lives – planning and regular training will.
