Slinging Scalpels and Packing Heat: When Violence Happens at Dental Offices
Source Officer.com News
From active shooter situations to road rage incidents, civilians are more concerned about what to do when violence erupts in their day-to-day lives. And that includes the workplace.
Retired Lt. Frank Borelli, OFFICER Magazine's editorial director, was a guest on the Dentistry Unmasked podcast to talk about what dental professionals can do—and what they're legally allowed to do—to reprogram their thinking in case an assault happens on the job. The discussion was sparked by recent attacks at dental offices that resulted in the death of a dentist.
What should a dental professional—or anyone in the workplace—do if someone walked through the door waving a gun and threatening violence? This episode breaks it down.
