De-escalation techniques are a set of strategies used to calm down an individual who is upset, potentially aggressive, or in crisis. These techniques are designed to reduce the level of conflict and to prevent a situation from escalating further. Medical assistants must be equipped with de-escalation skills to handle patients who may become anxious or upset, ensuring a safe environment for both patients and healthcare providers.
