Leveraging internal experts to prevent staff assaults

Although healthcare worker violence ranks high among today's top patient safety concerns, healthcare workers continue to be harmed, and healthcare has been identified as the profession with the highest percentage of nonfatal workplace violence injuries. Over the last few years, a Pennsylvania facility found that assaults on nursing in their acute care organisation were more than double the national rate. 

In the webinar, Loni Francis, MSN, RN, director of Behavioral Health Services, and Erin Marinchak, MSN, RN, senior director of clinical practice, Reading Hospital, Tower Health, will explain how proactive rounding by internal experts an prevent assaults and how behaviour management plans can reduce physical assaults.
