Senior living employees face unique safety risks, from resident aggression to interactions with visitors and third parties. As OSHA increases its focus on workplace violence in healthcare and long-term care settings, senior living leaders must proactively address prevention, preparedness, and response.

This session highlights compliance expectations, best practices for training and prevention, and practical strategies for balancing resident rights with employee protections. Attendees will gain insight into how organizations can strengthen safety culture, reduce risk exposure, and support frontline teams through clear policies, training, and leadership alignment.
