If you’re an EMT, Firefighter or Paramedic, in addition to saving lives, you face the unique challenge of existing in close proximity with physically aggressive patients in a moving metal box. Thankfully, everything is about to change. Today, we pressure tested the 100% of the @GracieMedicalDefense curriculum in the back of an ambulance. 90% of the system worked perfectly and 10% required adaptations due to confined space and position of the equipment. We can’t wait to share this with you. Thanks you @sisterelephant_ and @ambuserve.ambulance making this possible. Together, we will save lives.

Like other healthcare providers, firefighters, paramedics, and EMTs frequently encounter physically aggressive patients. However, they face the added challenge of managing these situations in unpredictable environments—on the street, in patients’ homes, or within the confined space of an ambulance. Without security personnel on hand, responders must rely on de-escalation and self-defense techniques to ensure their safety while delivering care. @GracieMedicalDefense is specifically adapted for tight spaces, emphasizing seated defensive positioning and confined-space limb control. These non-violent techniques enable EMTs to defuse aggression without harming the patient or disrupting treatment. Chemical restraints can be a reliable resource but only if it can be administered safely, and that’s where the SafeWrap system and other GMD restraint techniques can make all the difference. By integrating GMD into ambulance protocols, emergency responders gain critical skills to navigate high-risk situations, enhancing both their safety and patient outcomes.

Healthcare accounts for 73% of all workplace violence incidents, and workers in this field are five times more likely to be attacked than those in any other profession. Unfortunately, the violence continues to rise each year. Current workplace violence prevention programs are outdated and ineffective, leading to serious injuries for both patients and staff, and contributing to a growing number of healthcare professionals leaving the field. @GracieMedicalDefense (GMD) aims to transform healthcare by offering comprehensive safety solutions that ACTUALLY work. GMD focuses on threat assessment, verbal de-escalation, and distance management as top priorities, while also teaching physical de-escalation techniques for worst-case scenarios in standing, bedside, and grounded encounters. Using a train-the-trainer model, GMD empowers healthcare institutions to spread these life-saving skills to all their staff members. Once certified, all employees gain 24/7 online access to the full GMD curriculum, enabling individualized training even when in-person sessions are not possible. With over 100 years of experience in overcoming violence through physical de-escalation and control, the Gracie family is finally bringing its knowledge and expertise to where it’s needed most. Don’t miss the first 5-Day GMD Instructor Certification Course: • Who: Licensed Healthcare Professionals (Clinical, Security, Fire, EMS, Home Health, Care Clinics, etc.) • What: GMD SafeWrap Instructor Certification • When: May 19-23, 2025 • Where: Gracie University HQ (Torrance, CA) • Why: GMD is the Future of Workplace Violence Prevention If you work in healthcare, learn more and save your spot at GracieMedicalDefense.com.
