Yanira Eguileor stepped in to protect her coworker. The patient turned on her.
Now she’s suing the hospital for $5 million for failing to protect her.
Security responded within moments. Life-altering injuries happen within seconds.
If you’re a healthcare worker and a patient attacks you, your training is the only thing protecting you until security arrives. Gracie Medical Defense was built for that gap: de-escalation, standing and ground defenses, bedside defenses, and SafeWrap. No joint locks, no strikes, no chokeholds…every skill we teach is designed to protect staff while also prioritizing patient safety.
Nurses: share this with your leadership. For any healthcare system in the world, we’ll give the CNO, security director, WPV lead, or any executive a free seat at the GMD Instructor Certification Course. Why? Because once the leaders see it, it’s just a matter of time before the frontline staff at their hospitals finally get the training they deserve.
