    Where I work, our effort is to get the residents
to talk about their problems first, instead of
exploding in chaos and then talking about what is
bothering them.  Sometimes we have to put hands on
them for the safety of ourselves including the
resident involved.  We all desire, hope, pray, call it
what you will that a resident will choose calmness
over agression in handling their problems/tension.  As
you say Krimel, it's hard, at times, to say which way
it will be.  For instance, a resident now is peeking
in her aggressive behavior.  No hands on yet, but it
is very, very close.  She has punched a hole in the
wall, and when I stand near her, especially when she
is angry, I really have no idea what's going on in her
head, and I doubt she does either.  She is losing
control, and I am constantly alert as I stand near
here, thinking, she might try to punch me, I'm really
not sure, so I watch for any sudden movements and
stand in a way that will provide me with hopefully a
head start in protecting myself.
