Patrick Fudally, owner and primary instructor, presented at the 2024 Law Enforcement Training Officers Association’s yearly conference in Wisconsin. This is a state wide conference for the trainers of various law enforcement agencies to gather to explore new skills and trainings to bring back to their respective departments.
NW Crisis Training bases its teachings on the foundation of awareness and then focusing on the three steps to a safe outcome.
-
- Calming oneself, thereby becoming a powerful still-point in chaotic situations
- Effective Listening and Communication with the subject in crisis
- De-Escalating the chaotic situation before trying to problem solve
The goal at NW Crisis Training is to give people the tools to feel comfortable and be safe while interacting with individuals in crisis. This training goes beyond verbal techniques and provides real world experience in how to recognize rising levels of aggression and then use the most effective means to intervene in those situations.
