I think some of you should calm down. I work with adults that have developmental disabilities and these techniques DO work if you use them correctly. People need to remember, that working with people like this, you are NOT ALLOWED to grab their arms, wrists, or any other part of body. We all know that the aggressive person isn't going to be as calm as the woman in this video, but that is why they train you...so you can do these techniques faster and more precise. These techniques are not for a mugging or being attacked in an alleyway or field(that's why she says "good luck in your career"), but some of them might help you survive. Bravo on the video!!! Well done!
True, the kicking by developmental disabled is easier to handle by remembering they are mostly unstable on feet so simply moving out of kick range is appropriate. They may fall or in case of one I'm a carer for throw themselves down.
I think the important thing to remember is that these techniques are designed to keep the hospital safe from lawsuits. That's why they exist. That's what they are meant to do.
This is a VERY helpful video. I have worked in healthcare for over 20 years and I wish I had seen this video many years ago. Do NOT listen to incomprehensible comments from mis-informed negative individuals who can barely express their ideas! I strongly recommend this video.

Golden rule is safe distance, aware of exits, don’t give patients your back. Good luck as patients are humans with robust strength before their illness and will hurt you if they so wish.
These do work. If you do them properly. Also these techniques are primarily used with children and adolescents. So yes. With kids and teens these work 99 percent of the time. I base this on my many years in a child/teen child psychiatric center. I unfortunately utilize these skills quite often.
Information has been updated. There are 3 levels that you use to determine how to get out of grabs. You must hold and stabilize first because client might get hurt.
this is the biggest piece of bull shit I've ever seen none of those techniques would work effectively . Not only that they put the staff in a worst position , which make escape now impossible. This now force staff to use their right to self defense(basically choosing their life or their job- their going to pick there life) and now the in a.struggle , now both patient and staff are in danger in this wrestling match . This system is a complete failure
Hmmm, these techniques will not work. The theory is sound for a non aggressive attacker ;-) but not for a proper attacker. Also this is NOT self defence it is Physical Intervention.
Paul Lane well industrious patients would be a lot tougher to deal with cause They have more strength pay attention with more expensive experience you all pay a price no matter what! what seems right about this is that you read it!

For those of you saying that this won't work: IF this were a social situation done wrong, or if someone is attacking you in a quiet area, you are probably correct. HOWEVER, this is for a health care environment where there are plenty of people nearby. If you have a demented patient, or a psychiatric patient, these techniques will be very useful because you can call for and get help fairly quickly. Also, it would likely be that the attacker has a general frustration rather than them specifically wanting hurt you. So if you can surprise them, then it gives you more time to get nearby help or give them more time to reason, or realize that they can't easily take over.
Sheila Villamil, The help wouldn't arrive in time to prevent someone from getting knocked these moves are very out dated and are 99% useless unless play with a 2 year old
Please - I am begging you, I am a martial artist, go talk to a martial artist who deels with self-defense for assistance. Safety needs to be #1 for worker and client.
Unfortunately Martial Art techniques are a no go in these industries. You try those and you no longer have a job. I facilitate and teach a similar system. It's about minimal force used to release oneself. Even some of these in this video are not permissible in my industry of child protection. These work but much practice is needed, as many have commented its about controlling your emotional state first to respond effectively and not instinctually. I have a Martial Arts background and it's harder performing these techniques successfully then doing those as you use a different mindset and set of skills. Systems like these are used in Child Protection, Disability sectors, Mental Health where the focus is safe de-escalation with minimal force/harm. In the street I use MA, but at work I gotta use these
How to get hurt in one lesson, if one care worker gets injured after watching this you will be directly responsible. I should add i have 6 years experience working in secure units.
Programs such as these are well intended, but almost never work in reality. I’m speaking as a certified trainer in several of these types of curricula.
If I make of video on proving how bad all these techniques are would somebody watch it? I'll actually get my friend to attack full force and we will see how these moves work. I will be wearing protective equipment though

The neck grip ... most people who intend to do a neck grip try to imitate MMA fighters, with good levels of success. The technique shown cannot get you out of it, especially as the person will try to use their weight to bring you to the ground. It is essentially useless, except in a training video.
Reading the comments, some people think that you can't put your hands on a patient. Wrong, if the patient meets certain criteria, you can put your hands on that patient. That criteria is, danger to self, danger to others, medical reasons, awol, and finally destroying property. I know this because I had SCM training.
I understand that this is not for use in everyday situations, and that's for defence against a very specific section of society, but there is still a lot wrong with this that I would want addressing before I taught this to any staff.
A better way to do that would be to simply open your hand wide so it is open palm and rotate the hand in a circle. Fast, painless, harmless ad requires hardly any energy,
A few of these are outdated and anyone looking to refresh their SCIP-R should just ask their employer or a local agency. Videos won't really help without an instructor to correct you as you go.
The technique to defend yourself against kick is .... let them kick you! Obviously someone who has never been kicked in the shin.... I don't know who developed these ideas but they are lunatic.
spookespook it's scary to be in a situation like that. I hope you have a communication system that allows you to call or send for help. I've been in some hairy situations. With poorly funded and understaffed centers you do what you have to do - even if it's just you keeping a whistle on a break-away lanyard. Stay safe!
If your hair is grabbed from behind you want to stabilized their hand(s) and bend yourself forward so they're off balance. If it's one handed you can put pressure on their knuckles with the palm of your hand, using your other hand to go to their wrist and push opposite while stepping back and away from them. If you work in the field with people with disabilities you should be taught this properly. If you're not, then there are other techniques you can probably learn for the general public.
Snowflake University has room for this course in their next semester. Unrealistic in dynamics but good for PR with Human Resources. I guess if that's what you're going for, this "technique" is good but if you want to go home safe, this ain't it.
I trained martial arts for 5 years like people have said they only work in training but in real life doing security on the door ive seen alot and ive removed real violent people so i know this doesn't work
i work with people who are in these situations... they still get hurt the kids hit the teachers and the tearchers do nothing... something wrong with this...self defense is good yes... but youre not learning how to stop anything.
There is a huge gap between training and reality. Judging by the movements in this video, which are impractical and useless, 90% of this will not work in an adrenalized state. I'm tired of seeing highly educated people develop self defense courses from their kid's karate class. They are not experts in self defense anymore than the people who show them these outdated and impractical moves. Why turn into a choke and put pressure on both carotid arteries? Why does someone who is pulling your hair leave you in an upright controlled position? Why are you ripping your hand away from people who are obviously trying to talk to you? How did you catch and deflect the only punch or kick they threw at you? You must be Neo off of The Matrix! Very little of this works in the real world and will get people hurt.

I'm reading the comments and I don't disagree with them. However, I don't see too much of a problem with the general content of the video.

These techniques are not a magic panacea, and performing them does not mean your safe, the person has legs, they can still charge you and continue the fight. Which means you may have to, and not everyone is comfortable with hitting another person. Systems like this are incomplete unfortunately.
A major importance is knowing your guys. You should always read up on their history. Unless you or they are new, you should know their diagnosis and history of aggression and physical intervention. While every situation varies, even knowing and practicing these techniques (or updated ones) will still put you at an advantage than not knowing. The first time I got bit I luckily didn't panic and the individual let go without needing to implement any techniques. Not always the case but had I not been trained I might have pulled away and made it worse.
this is a joke in the first scene she blocked the kick with her leg and turned her body away exposing her back to the aggressors left hand who can then grab her ponytail and take her to the ground.
Alice Hart then you don't know shit, I work in a busy emergency department and have people go "all out like that" on me and had to block kicks, punches, and grabs (mind you without returning any blows or causing injury) and literally throw them onto a bed and restrain them
Clearly not evidenced based. Less than 45 seconds into the video the instructor informs us that staying a legs length away will keep us safe from harm! This is an irresponsible statement as a truly safe distance can only be determined by dynamic and historical risk factors, the environment, knowledge about the individual, communication competency, along with with a myriad of many other issues. There are so many complexities associated with human behaviour that need to be considered and understood before even starting to think about what we should do in the worst case scenario. Dennis Tueller's 21ft rule study is worth looking as it highlights how quickly motivated human beings can move !
I work in a hospital and a mental ward. We get psychos and druggieseveryday. We have a teacher who recertifies us once a year and he uses most of these techniques. Although shown here they look effective..
Anyone using terminology like "psychos" and "druggie" should not be working in a psychiatric hospital...in any capacity! Seems you're lacking in more than just self defense!
As a US Marine, MMA student of over 15 years, I cringed at almost every single move taught here. This training is a joke and can get you hurt. NEVER turn your back to your attacker. There are so many points of vulnerability that I stopped watching. I can't believe there using this as any kind of training video. It needs to be redone with a credentialed marital arts instructor.

My retort is, that this training, regardless if it's leaning more towards defense is going to get your staff hurt. Lose this video.
Using martial arts in residential child care/social care is a fast track to unemployment and a pending court case! Legislation classes many of your martial arts moves as illegal. You're comparing apples to oranges, which demonstrates a failure to understand the nature of safe crisis management within a social care setting. Like it or not, there are techniques we simply cannot use. We ain't fighting the Taliban here!
@EddieLandsberg Sounds like you have major problems. 360 pounds? What are you doing married to THAT? Get your life back, man. Divorce her, and go on a trip.
Then learn to recognize the person's triggers leading up to the attack, and understand the antecedents of his behaviour. Incidentally, the size of the person is irrelevant.
I think some of you should calm down. I work with adults that have developmental disabilities and these techniques DO work if you use them correctly.

You really should look into PCM strategies and techniques to respond to these types of behaviors.
the wrist breakaway only works if the person does not get a tight grip on your wrist. You have to act super fast to make this work at all.
A better way to do that would be to simply open your hand wide so it is open palm and rotate the hand in a circle. Fast, painless, harmless ad requires hardly any energy,
