Satori Alternatives to Managing Aggression (SAMA)![]() This program teaches verbal de-escalation and physical protection skills. These crisis intervention principles are used to assist someone in the work or home environment who is in distress and may become aggressive. The program is used by many service organizations to support their risk management efforts. It is typically used by healthcare, residential care, childcare, and social services workers, and by foster/adoptive parents who may need to protect themselves and others in volatile situations.
Mild to moderate physical abilities are required. Testimonials"Olaiya is calm and reassuring. She ensures you have both the knowledge and skills."
