Bruce Chapman is the President and Founder of Handle With Care. Bruce is an expert in the fields of behavior management, unarmed use-of-force and the use of both physical and therapeutic mechanical restraints. Throughout his 34 year career, he has developed five separate proprietary training programs to help specialized agencies that care for children as young as three years old to geriatric facilities caring for the elderly to maximum security forensic and correctional facilities dealing with the highest risk levels. Bruce has been described as a true innovator in the field. Handle With Care’s proprietary PRT® holding method was given the distinction of being the first and only physical technique in the history of the U.S. Patent Office for its integrated safeguards to prevent positional asphyxiation during a prone hold (“Apparatus and Method for Safely Maintaining a Restraining Hold on a Person”).
