We have seen many presentations on working with disruptive persons. This panel presentation illustrates a unique angle of diverse perspectives on management of the growing national problem of consumer misbehavior in the healthcare industry. Through the eyes of a Patient Engagement Coach, a Patient Relations Manager, a Professional Practice Educator and a Chaplain we look at the impact of effectively managing these disruptive behaviors in both the inpatient and outpatient setting. Employees benefit from improved emotional self regulation, recognizing disruptive behaviors and feel more confident using limit setting and seeking assistance.
