TIDES trains clinical staff in team-based and physical skills. These are based on trauma-informed and evidence-based literature, and they are designed to maintain safety and security for everyone involved.
Team-based interventions
- Emergencies: Plan how to respond to emergencies in way that are efficient, logical and structured.
- Non-emergencies: Plan how to respond to non-emergency situations (but that have the potential to escalate).
Physical intervention skills
- Self-protection skills: On an individual level, reduce physical risks for people providing and receiving care.
- Environmental applications: Apply physical interventions in specific workplaces (e.g., by determining the potential risks in advance).
- Team-based skills: Learn how, when and why a team would limit a person’s movements, and how to do it safely and in trauma-informed ways.
