NAPPI Training Options

NAPPI has been in use at facilities that have successfully been credentialed by JCAHO, COA, Medicare, and CARF. We have worked with both the CWLA and NTAC of the NASMHPD on their restraint and seclusion reduction and elimination initiatives to provide trauma-informed care in a non-coercive, non-violent treatment milieu. We strive to create environments where restraints are unnecessary, assaults are unknown, and where everyone feels safe. To achieve these goals, staff members need numerous skills; skills that help them respond to positive behaviors, intervene with unwanted behaviors, and have the confidence and ability to safely stop physical harm when necessary. NAPPI offers several program types to suit a variety of your organization’s needs:
