# Do Not Demonstrate Unsafe Contact Rule

## Rule

Huddle simulations must not physically demonstrate grabbing, pushing, pulling, holding, restraining, blocking, dragging, or steering a child. The program practices judgment, language, positioning, team role clarity, and repair. It does not rehearse unsafe contact in a huddle.

## Approved Alternatives

- Freeze-frame: pause before contact and ask what staff should notice.
- Verbal walk-through: describe the missed step without acting it out.
- Non-contact staging: demonstrate spacing, angle, voice, and team position.
- Clinical lab referral: if a physical skill must be practiced, it belongs in approved training under approved instructors, not in huddle sims.

## Violation Response

1. Stop the sim.
2. Remove the scenario from rotation.
3. Notify clinical owner and risk partner.
4. Re-onboard the facilitator before they facilitate again.
