Perhaps a receptionist is helping a belligerent customer. The orthodontist office worker could raise a low alert, making their colleagues aware of the unfolding situation.<\/p>\n<p>Another scenario where a panic button for orthodontist offices would be useful is in imminent danger to workers and clients. An orthodontist office worker could raise a high alert, which would dispatch police immediately. CRS Notify panic buttons connect to 911 via E911 integration. This bypasses the alarm company altogether and sends the alert straight to the police.<\/p>\n<p>Because medications and other drugs are available at some orthodontist offices, a panic button from CRS Notify would be essential to keep all employees in the loop of what is going on at all times.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>How to Avoid Workplace Violence in an <\/strong><strong>Orthodontist Office<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Orthodontist offices are vulnerable to workplace violence for a few reasons. First off, orthodontist offices sometimes see people in desperate situations. Secondly, some orthodontist offices dispense medications to some of the animals within the shelter.<\/p>\n<p>Surveillance cameras are an absolute must when trying to reduce workplace violence in orthodontist offices. The orthodontist offices that have surveillance cameras can identify those who may commit violence against the orthodontist office workers as well.<\/p>\n<p>Some orthodontist offices dispense controlled medications. Certain controlled substances are required by the DEA to be recorded at all times. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.deadiversion.usdoj.gov\/pubs\/brochures\/pharmtheft.pdf\">The DEA advises<\/a> orthodontist offices and other places that dispense controlled substances to keep this information stored properly at all times.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Incident Response Plan<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-6647 size-medium aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/www.communityresponsesystems.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/TeamAlert_v2.00_00_26_18.Still006-600x338.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"338\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.communityresponsesystems.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/TeamAlert_v2.00_00_26_18.Still006-600x338.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.communityresponsesystems.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/TeamAlert_v2.00_00_26_18.Still006-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.communityresponsesystems.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/TeamAlert_v2.00_00_26_18.Still006-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.communityresponsesystems.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/TeamAlert_v2.00_00_26_18.Still006.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>An incident response plan is just as important as a panic button for orthodontist offices. How does the staff need to react in case of emergency? Depending on the type of emergency, it may not be advisable to hit the panic button right away. In fact, many safety and security personnel will advise against hitting the panic button during an active emergency if it is not safe to do so.<\/p>\n<p>In the case of an active shooter, many places will recommend\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/phe.gov\/Preparedness\/planning\/Documents\/active-shooter-planning-eop2014.pdf\">run-hide-fight<\/a>. Running from the situation is the first thing that people should do. If it is unsafe to run, then people need to hide in a safe place. If all else fails, fighting the assailant should be a last resort.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Conclusion<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>A panic button should be included in every incident response plan. CRS Notify panic buttons include the option to raise two alert levels. Our panic buttons also send\u00a0alerts to everyone within a network if an alert is raised. CRS Notify panic buttons are directly connected to 911. This saves valuable dispatch time when seconds matter the most.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: center;\">Still Unsure About a Panic Button?<\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Contact us for more information to make the best decision for your panic button.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"mailto:info@communityresponsesystems.com\"><strong>info@communityresponsesystems.com<\/strong><\/a><strong>\u00a0or 800-533-7201 M-F 8-5 pm CST<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-6657 size-medium aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/www.communityresponsesystems.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/TeamAlert_logo_approved-600x181.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"181\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.communityresponsesystems.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/TeamAlert_logo_approved-600x181.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.communityresponsesystems.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/TeamAlert_logo_approved.jpg 751w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Orthodontist offices are not immune from workplace violence.
