Inpatient CareYou have a tricky job – inspectors, regulators and advocates second guess everything you do, budgets and staffing levels are down but regulations and costs are up. Sometimes, you are faced with difficult, challenging or even dangerous people – and they aren’t always your patients! Whether your setting is acute or chronic, short stay or long term, no matter where your patients fall on the DSM, you are responsible for providing humane, effective care, and giving your staff members the tools to safely and efficiently do their jobs. NAPPI can help! Since 1977, NAPPI has worked in organizations like yours to provide safe, humane and effective care – even when faced with behavioral emergencies.NAPPI has helped organizations reduce restraints, minimize injuries, and increase cooperation. NAPPI has been in use at facilities that have successfully been credentialed by JCAHO, COA, CARF, and Medicare. NAPPI complies with the new CMS Regulations. We have worked with the NTAC of the NASMHPD on their restraint and seclusion elimination initiative to provide trauma-informed care in a non-coercive, nonviolent treatment milieu. In fact, NAPPI skills have been specifically listed as part of the six strategies to reduce the use of seclusion and restraint by the NTAC. We strive to create environments where restraints are unnecessary, assaults are unknown, and where everyone feels safe. That requires giving staff members skills to respond to positive behaviors, intervene with unwanted behaviors, and have the confidence and ability to safely stop physical harm when necessary. You can be safer today!
