Handling Aggressive Patient video

I was browsing through youtube.com and I found this interesting video of how to handle aggressive patient. I think this video was made by a group of psychatric nurses from USA. Its a three part video.

The main topics discuss in this presentation are

• Aggressive behaviours
• Stages of escalation
• Nurses' reaction in managing client exhibiting aggressive behaviour
• Different types of self defense in a case if an aggressive client attack

Hope this presentation is useful for all of us.
