When was the last time you reviewed your active violence safety and preparedness plans? Senior living and long-term care owners and operators need to have an updated active violence emergency response plan to prepare associates, residents, and others on how to respond when someone poses a threat to the community.

In our recent webinar, "Safety and Active Violence Preparedness in Senior Living & LTC," our panelists provided recommendations to help owners and operators better prepare for potential threats. Discussion highlights included:

Learning what active violence is and the risk in senior living and long-term care.
Understanding other types of violence that can occur in this industry.
Knowing the elements of an active violence preparedness response and training for associates and residents.
Having an awareness of the potential insurance implications.
