What’s happening: CHA’s Hospital Quality Institute (HQI) will hold a virtual forum on Hospital Workplace Violence: Security Personnel and the Continuum of Force on April 18 from noon to 1 p.m. (PT).
What else to know: The forum will discuss the pros and cons of various methods used by hospital security officers when responding to escalating levels of threats within a hospital facility, including the use of stun guns. Registration is open.
Monthly virtual forums are a part of HQI’s Community of Practice on Eliminating Hospital Workplace Violence. The purpose is to connect individuals focused on reducing workplace violence in hospitals through peer-to-peer learning opportunities. Participation is free and open to all CHA and HQI member hospitals.
The slides and recordings of previous forums are available on the program website.
For questions, contact Boris Kalanj, HQI’s director of programs, at bkalanj@hqinstitute.org.
