What is NAPPI?
NAPPI is a course in staff safety. It is not about therapy. Some providers aim their course at the people who write treatment plans – NAPPI is aimed at people who live and work daily with challenging people. Uniquely, we meet the needs of treatment planning staff also, helping them focus on the positive elements of a person’s life and the practical concerns of the people who are responsible for implementing such plans. It is about staff effectiveness. NAPPI-trained organizations routinely report improved outcomes because of improved employee responses to behavior – both wanted and unwanted. It is about safety for those you serve. NAPPI is unique in its focus on actively keeping the assaultive person safe while at the same time keeping everyone else safe. Frequently, injuries to everyone decline precipitously after NAPPI has been introduced.
