Crisis Prevention Institute Case Study

Dignity Health – California

Introduction

This case study of Dignity Health – California is based on an August 2015 survey of Crisis Prevention Institute customers by TechValidate, a 3rd-party research service.

“By using CPI as our standard, we have the lowest rates of workplace violence in the Dignity Health system.”

“CPI improved staff de-escalation skills, improved overall safety, and has become ingrained in our training.”

“The CPI program itself has been very well received by staff, so much so that we are now offering the training to all employees as opposed to only the areas identified as high risk.”

“The CPI training has enabled me personally to deal more effectively with difficult patients, staff, peers, my children, and my spouse. By managing my own behaviors more effectively I am able to better achieve the results I desire.”

Challenges

Sought Nonviolent Crisis Intervention® training to improve staff skills in managing behaviors.

Environment

Categorizes their healthcare environment as medical/surgical.

Results

  • Reduced challenging/disruptive behaviors by over 50% since implementing CPI de-escalation techniques.
  • Decreased the use of physical restraints and seclusions by 50—74% since implementing CPI training.
