Handle With Care is specialized training that teaches the safest and most powerful verbal and physical intervention methods. The training consists of practical easy-to-learn techniques and methods that have been tested and proven to work with the most challenging children and adults, including those with cognitive, emotional and/or physical needs, including autism, congenital deformities, brain injury, cardiac and respiratory issues. Handle With Care creates a Calm Mind Faster. Tentative touch overstimulates, excites and further agitates. HWC's holding methods are engineered to be definitive, comfortable and secure. When staff is confident and well trained in HWC's verbal de-escalation and physical holding methods, there should be a significant reduction in the overall number of restraints, a reduction in physical holding times and a reduction in injuries to all concerned. The holding methods for children and adults communicate calmness, and produce a more rapid return to a calm mind state, emotional homostatis and equilibrium.
