At CHRISTUS Health Southern NM, the answer has long been rooted in prevention. With the help of CPI training, incidents dropped by 65% in just two years. “We saw a huge culture shift after we got more associates trained with the CPI curriculum,” said Judy Flores, Director of Education. “Staff felt more confident and empowered to step in and de-escalate situations.” See how CPI helped CHRISTUS transform care from the inside out.

💡 Classroom disruptions cost U.S. schools over $2 billion annually due to time lost managing behavior. Each week, teachers spend an average of 2.4 hours on behavior management, adding up to nearly 15 full school days lost per classroom every year. It’s time to rethink how we support educators. Let’s give teachers the tools they need to focus on what matters most: student success. 🔗 Learn more: https://bit.ly/4n5ExmV #CPITraining #SupportTeachers #ClassroomManagement #ClassroomDisruptions #StudentBehavior

For violence prevention strategies to be effective, every team member must understand their role. But many health systems still face a critical gap: roles remain undefined, staff express uncertainty about what to do, and confidence in current policies is low. Establishing clear, actionable roles is the foundation of an effective workplace violence prevention plan—empowering staff to respond confidently and consistently.

1982 was a big year. "E.T." and Michael Jackson's "Thriller" were released, Disney opened EPCOT, and the Weather Channel launched. It's also when Gene Cavaliere became a CPI Certified Instructor. Gene has been dedicated to the Care, Welfare, Safety, and Security of those he serves for more than four decades. That dedication continues as he recently completed his certification renewal (and decided to bring along some old CPI memorabilia to show off as well). Thanks to Gene and all of our other Certified Instructors for the great work they do! Interested in becoming a Certified Instructor like Gene?
