Despite decades of attention to the issue of violence in the workplace by individuals and organizations across the health care spectrum, it is still a widespread problem that nurses face every day in their work environment. It’s time we take a stand. Let’s put an end to workplace violence. Designed to spark a conversation and provide actionable tactics to reduce workplace violence, “Not Part of the Job: How to Take a Stand Against Violence in the Work Setting” offers guidance to practicing nurses on how they can better protect themselves against a wide range of unacceptable behaviors.

And much more. Not Part of the Job: How to Take a Stand Against Violence in the Work Setting also focuses on the critical importance of collective action and building partnerships among workers, patient advocates, administrators, security personnel and others in order to effect change at the organizational level.
