RCT

Response Control Techniques (RCT) provides security officers with the knowledge and physical skills to re-direct difficult or dangerous encounters back to a “Safe State”. This is a fully adaptable program, customized to your staff, facility, and corporate compliance standards. A crisis can be de-escalated and safely re-directed verbally or using RCT safe and effective redirection skills assisting the client with bed or chair placement. When they are returned back to a “Safe State”, clinical staff can continue treatment safely and effectively.
