I spent 15 years as a firefighter and paramedic, and I’ve used MAB skills when patients are assaultive…

There’s nothing more important than keeping our patients, our crew, and ourselves safe. When the situation with a patient becomes dangerous, you need to know how to de-escalate it for everyone’s sake. I’ve been attacked by patients in the past, and I relied on my MAB training to know what to do. The tools you learn in MAB can help you recognize patient triggers, prevent escalation, and — most importantly — protect yourself and those around you.

MAB Certification FAQ’s

When you’re MAB certified, you’ve learned the tools necessary to deal with patients that may become assaultive and are better equipped to protect yourself and your crew.

A Management of Assaultive Behavior completion certificate is valid for 1 year. 

The MAB certification is recommended for all healthcare personnel. It is especially important for those who work in emergency rooms or psychiatric departments.

Our 100% online Management of Assaultive Behavior course meets the requirements for AB508 and SB1299. CE units are approved by the CA Board of Registered Nursing and EMS.

Yes—however, there is no Initial Provider or Renewal course. Our MAB certification course is designed to fulfill the legal requirements set forth by California state bills AB508 and SB1299. Those requirements can only be fulfilled (and renewed) by completing the course in full.

California state bills AB508 and SB1299 are nearly identical. The main difference is that SB1299 covers several hospital-specific requirements not included in AB508. This content is covered in our Management of Assaultive Behavior course here at SureFire CPR.

Broadly speaking, any course that meets the requirements listed on the AB508 California State Bill is an MAB course. However, not all courses go by this name. Some institutions have changed their course names for branding purposes. To be sure that you are enrolling in the right course, be sure to read the course description and check that it does meet the requirements listed on the AB508 California State Bill.

The cost of Management of Assaultive Behavior certification can vary from provider to provider. Here at SureFire CPR, our MAB certification course is currently available at a special rate of $120.

You will receive your certification upon completion of your Management of Assaultive Behavior course. In a matter of seconds, you will receive online confirmation of your completion and have access to your certificate and continuing education units (BRN and EMS).

Yes, our learning portal allows you to complete the course at your own pace so you can fit it into your busy schedule. While you can pause the course, we recommend taking it all in one sitting, or two close sittings. Too much time away from the course material may affect your performance on course tests. You will have access to all of the content for 12 months so you can review it as many times as you’d like to refresh your skills.
