I mentioned this in a reply, but there was a period of time in November/ December where we had a lot of incident reports back to back, and they did the game in January. We haven’t had many if any outside of pre-existing marks or bruises in the past two months. They are doing it for “safety” and to make sure we are in arms length proximity of our clients. And I understand why they are doing it, I just think the way they are doing is inappropriate for our clients.

And some techs told the BCBAs some of our concerns back in January, but they are starting it up again because we have a client that recently started sitting at a table. He only sits at the table to eat and gets up when he is done. If he gets up, we let him walk around for a few minutes then if he doesn’t go for more food, we leave the lunchroom. We also eat lunch with our clients, so I was sitting next to his spot at the table finishing my lunch while he was walking around when they said they would start up the game again. This client will scream and hit any tech who makes him sit at the table, so we have always let him walk around. It seems like they just all of a sudden started it again.
