Before. During. After.

Clear decisions when conditions change.

01
Before the visit

Recognize risk. Plan the check-in. Know the exit.

02
During the encounter

Notice escalation. Create space. Know when to leave.

03
After a concern

Report what changed. Support the employee. Adjust the plan.

Built around the work your people do

A policy matters most when staff know how to use it.

A home visit, a tense family conversation, or a changing environment can force a decision in seconds. PTA helps employees and supervisors rehearse the decisions that matter.

Recognize

See the change earlier.

Use pre-visit information, observable behavior, surroundings, and exit access to identify concerns before moving closer.

Respond

Have words and options.

Practice calm communication, boundaries, positioning, disengagement, and calling for help when a conversation changes.

Reinforce

Make follow-through routine.

Connect training to check-ins, reporting, supervisor decisions, and refreshers so the next visit benefits from what was learned.

Technology + human decisions

Connect the device to a practiced response.

POM provides safety technology. Prepare To Act focuses on the human side: recognizing risk, responding earlier, and making safer decisions in the field.

Training can complement your device procedures and organizational policies. Staff need to know how to seek help, when to disengage, and what their supervisor expects next.

  • Pre-visit preparation
    Known concerns, changes since the last visit, and who knows the schedule.
  • Scenario-based practice
    Difficult conversations, unexpected people, blocked exits, and changing behavior.
  • A clear response plan
    Check-ins, emergency communication, reporting, and supervisor follow-through.

Led by Chris Marciano

Experience that translates into practical training.

Chris founded Prepare To Act in 2011 and retired as a Watertown Police Department sergeant after approximately 25 years of service, including work in narcotics, investigations, and supervision.

PTA brings that experience into healthcare and community settings through de-escalation, situational awareness, staff training, and safety-program support.
