Restraint-Free Alternative for Healthcare

Restraint-free de-escalation for patient-facing teams.

Hospital and behavioral health teams are under pressure to reduce restraint and seclusion use while workplace violence against clinicians keeps rising. GentleWay does not teach restraints. We build verbal de-escalation, situational awareness, safe distance and get-away skills — plus the self-care practices that keep staff in the profession.

  • Alternative to restraint-based nonviolent crisis intervention programs
  • Workplace violence prevention for nurses, techs and front-desk staff
  • Behavioral escalation, agitated patients and distressed families
  • Debrief, refresh and rejuvenate after difficult shifts

Restraint-Free Alternative for Schools

Student de-escalation without restraint and seclusion.

Districts moving away from restraint and seclusion still need staff who know what to do when a student escalates. GentleWay builds restraint-free de-escalation, relationship-first communication and safe get-away skills for teachers, aides, bus drivers and administrators — tailored to district policy.

  • Alternative to restraint-based crisis intervention certification
  • Escalating students, upset families and staff conflict
  • Aligned to district restraint and seclusion policy
  • Coaching and refreshers across the school year
