Webinar Recording: Non-Verbal Communication: I’m Communicating…Are You Listening?

Gary Nicholls, Principal Team Teach trainer, discusses the importance of non-verbal communication in this recording of an open Team Teach webinar.

These often subtle non-verbal signs can help us with dynamic risk assessment, enabling us to reduce the likelihood of an individual ending up in crisis.

In this webinar, we discuss:

• • How individuals can communicate their emotions through body language, helping us to recognise how they may be feeling.

• • Ways we can spot the early non-verbal communication signs of distress before an individual is in crisis, allowing us to decide how best to support them.

• • Why early de-escalation can reduce risk and the use of restrictive practices for everyone.
