What’s Improving
Violence prevention training program for health authority staff, offered primarily virtually, during pandemic.
One provincewide program available to everyone working in healthcare with different delivery methods (online and in person) and tailored to specific jobs and workplaces.
Some people working in healthcare do not have easy access to health authority or SafeCare BC’s violence prevention training.
Equal access to violence prevention training for everyone working in healthcare where required.
Content last updated in 2016.
SWITCH BC will develop and maintain current best practices, including trauma-informed practice and cultural humility, throughout the training. And build a sustainable process for ongoing curriculum updates.
