The certificate program examines contemporary trends and issues related to the wide range of interpersonal violence, crime and sudden violent death that may be encountered in a variety of healthcare settings. Theoretical tenets, methods for assessment and related implications for intervention and/or referral will be examined from a multifaceted perspective—including that of the offender, crime victim, families, and the healthcare community-at-large.

This post-baccalaureate certificate is intended for providers and educators in the healthcare sciences, as well as professionals who have direct contact with victims and/or offenders across disciplines and areas of practice.

This program is intended for post-baccalaureate practitioners, graduate students and healthcare educators across the continuum of specialties and agencies. These broad inclusion criteria are recommended given that all healthcare agencies/providers are at some level of risk potential for violence by patients, families, visitors, students or other employees.
