Most abuse emerges from a clash such as the one above.
A consumer tests an employee who is tired or upset. He or she reacts, is not reported and abuses again and again until it becomes habituated and a consumer or consumers are injured. The majority of employees care and are reasonably well trained. We believe there can be Freedom from Abuse for persons with disabilities if we have the will and courage to confront the real problems. Our Purpose is to share what we have learned about abuse and its prevention.
