EP 28: Armed Conflicts in the Practice, Violent Threats, and Suicide Prevention - Former FBI Agent and Police Sergeant Teach Doctors How to Prevent the Worst. (Part 2 of 2)

We continue our two-part discussion with Kathy Leodler (former FBI) and Paul Leodler (former police sergeant) of the Rampart Group.

Concealed weapons in the medical practice - where to begin? Is it possible to balance the protection firearms provide with the risks they create? And how should doctors react when a patient (or employee) with a history of extreme behavior (and a sizeable gun collection) threatens violence - or suicide? Most patient interactions are conflict free. But not all of them. Some can be deadly. And if it is predictable, it's often preventable.
