  • First, ask your boss for your employer’s policies on handling these situations.

    Second, ask your boss for de-escalation training. If you’ve already gone through this training, a refresher will still be good.

    Third, you mentioned a union. Ask them for recommendations and resources.

    Fourth, if your concerns feel unaddressed, contact whomever would be your HR department. Know that HR is not there to help or protect employees, but there to keep the organization from being sued.

    Fifth, do right by yourself. You’re obligated to your own safety. Healthcare is an emotionally charged environment with clients who are almost never there for good reasons. These high level emotions will cause intense feelings and scenarios. People can react irrationally during such situations.


  • This would be correct. We have at least 7 amazon alexa/fireTV devices and a bunch of other IoT devices with Alexa capability and each of them get used regularly.

    The IoT devices are on their own subnet which doesn’t have access to the other subnets. I live with my mom and Alexa devices just make her life way easier. I put in the work to make sure the alexa and IoT devices are as restricted as possible without losing functionality so she can live a bit easier.
