Houston, we have a problem. 1 in 4 nurses are assaulted on the job (that's more than even police officers and prison guards). As a nurse leader, the responsibility of mitigating that violence falls to you. It may feel like you’re alone, but The Nurses Legacy Institute is here for you. FIRST STEP: Join us TOMORROW for one of two back-to-back roundtables for aspiring and chief nursing officers focused on solutions to violence (RSVP link below). Meet nurse leaders who understand exactly what you do, are applying best practices in the field, and can share what is (and isn’t) working for them. The sessions won’t be recorded (you have to actually show up), but we promise that if you set aside one hour of one workday, you won’t regret it. SECOND STEP: Follow our page and “subscribe” to all updates. Post-roundtable, we’ll publish a guide that complements the discussion to help you act on what you'll learn. See you tomorrow (11 am EST or 2 pm EST)! RSVP here: https://bit.ly/4lKjw0r 📹: New York Times
I wasn't aware of the extremity of the situation. It's devastating. I'm so glad TNLI is creating a safe space to share and discuss.
Great topic. The laws to protect patients need to be modified to make sure that caregivers are also protected. We can’t care for others if we are vulnerable.
