Overview

Workplace violence against nurses is a major challenge for healthcare leaders. Common types of violence such as physical harm, sexual abuse, aggression, mobbing and bullying can occur from patients, family and co-workers. 

For this discussion, you will use information from your assigned readings, the self-paced tutorial and the literature to discuss the following in a discussion board post.

· What impact does workplace violence have on nurses, other clinical staff and the organization as a whole? Be specific and provide rationale.

· How is workplace violence addressed in your organization, i.e. policies, protocols, training. Be specific.  Is it sufficient?  What else could be done?

· What are the legal and ethical implications for the nurse leader if workplace violence occurs on their unit(s)?
