Maine school Administrative District 6 has had a very positive experience with the Safety-Care program offered by QBS. QBS trained all of our Special Education staff in Safety-Care, replacing the previous program that had some good points but did not overall meet our needs. We were so pleased with Safety-Care that we took the additional step of having QBS train several of our staff as trainers. Thanks for developing such a great safety training course!
Safety-Care is one of the most useful training programs in which my facilities have ever participated… a necessity working with today’s long-term care residents.
Our facility houses over 200 adults with intellectual and other disabilities; many of these individuals are also diagnosed with mental illness, seizure disorders, and serious medical issues. We have used a variety of crisis management systems over the years until June of 2008 when Safety-Care was implemented with our entire staff of over 1000. Since that time we have seen a sharp decrease in the number of restraints from an average above 30 per month to an average of 6 per month. An essential contributing factor to this decrease was embracing Safety-Care as our crisis management system.
I am so excited to share that we just completed our first Safety-Care Behavioral training class in our district. I knew that QBS’s program was high-quality when I was in the process of earning my certification to become a district trainer, but now after conducting this first training, I feel confident to say that even more!
At Guidewire, it is our mission to support individuals by helping them realize full and meaningful lives. Since our transition to Safety-Care, we have seen a significant decline in emergency restraints across the Agency. This translates to a higher quality of life for the individuals and a more thorough, evidence-based, and effective education for our staff members. Safety-Care is a welcome partner in supporting individuals with dignity and respect.
