I have been there and my place of business reacted the same way - I found the best way to heal after this is give it time and then learn how to never get into that situation again - I became a nonviolent crisis prevention instructor and I practice all I preech - I do understand that the clients are getting more violent and more criminalistic than psychiatric - My unit has repeatedly taken persons who assaulted staff back time and time again and the Judge said once to me that I should accept being physically battered as part of my job. Remeber, he has court officers to protect him.
