    The organisation must be aware of all of the recent changes in order for the health care provisions to provide the best quality of care. The organisations employ managers who have the duty to ensure that all of the policies are adhered too, staffs are trained on a regular basis and that the improvement of care should be monitored after the training is provided.

However, the health and social care establishment should still be able to effectively deal with cases like these.

  • Vertical Violence In Nursing

    615 Words  | 3 Pages

    There are different types of violence that an individual may encounter at some point in their lives due to conflicting values, experiences and knowledge. In a clinical health care setting, newly registered nurses may encounter horizontal violence, while nursing students may experience vertical violence. The term horizontal is used to illustrate violence between two individuals who are either of the same or unequal status, while the term vertical is used specifically to nursing students (Thomas & Burk, 2009). In my opinion, many nursing students, such as myself, we are unaware of these terms because they are not frequently addressed. However, it is certain that it happened, and it will continue to occur if there is no appropriate action is taken to prevent this violence.

    (Huston, 2017, pg151) Horizontal violence are behaviors that hinder nursing job satisfaction, impact job performance and put a lot of pressure on the nurse. According to the Joint Commission “intimidating and disruptive behaviors” can facilitate medication errors, lower patient satisfaction and lead to adverse patient outcomes. (Lachman, 2014) There is no singular solution to this problem and people have the right to work in a safe and healthy environment – regardless of setting.

  • The Importance Of Incivility In The Workplace

    1703 Words  | 7 Pages

    Cultivating Healthful Environments Incivility in the workplace was once a remote issue; however, it has increasingly shown concern in the workplace and how it affects nursing staff as well as patient care. Workplace incivility is identified as a behavior with a vague intent to harm someone while having no concern for workplace standards or respect for others (Laschinger, Wong, Cummings, & Grau, 2014). Incivility negatively impacts interpersonal and professional relationships, diminishes nurses’s care provided to patients, and provides more room for medication errors and patient dissatisfaction (Abdollahzadeh, Asghari, Ebrahimi, Rahmani, & Vahidi, 2017). Prevention methods need to be warranted to limit workplace incivility to provide nursing staff with increased self-esteem, and to provide quality of care that is safe to all patients. Organizational outcomes are also negatively impacted when it comes to incivility.

  • Workplace Violence In Health Care Essay

    A study conducted in Turkey in 2013 portrayed the reasons of violence against healthcare workers. Causative factors are intricately intertwined and complex in the way they contribute to emerging violence, but can be broadly attributed to the gap between healthcare providers and patients. Attention should be brought to healthcare providers that there is a lack of communication between them and the patients, and so they should provide accurate, clear, and concise information about the patient's condition, and the approximate waiting period. It is also necessary to corroborate the high stress level that patients are in, which may be overlooked by healthcare providers at times, hence provoking the patient and their family. We must also endorse the judicial system gaps and lack of security measures that are lacking in several hospitals all around the world.

    This type of disclosure is an organizational violation, but could also lead to legal ramifications as well. Incidental disclosure of protected health information is not considered to be a “violation of the HIPAA medical privacy regulation provided the covered entity has applied reasonable safeguards” (Hatton, 2003) to help prevent them. This error also has the potential to cause distrust in the patient that the nurse is transporting, causing them to lose faith in the company. The nurse stopped Sue in the hallway (a public space), while transporting another patient, to tell Sue that there was an issue. The nurse made no attempt to keep the issue private and rattled of the details in front of the escorted patient, even though the situation was not an emergency or life threatening.

  • Theoretical Framework Of Violence In The Workplace

    1804 Words  | 8 Pages

    When looking at the function of professional nursing, the attitude, experiences, as well as factors such as demographics, social class, education, and values, can determine how the nurse will view violence in the workplace. These factors that have contributed to the development of the professional nurse can also determine how the nurse views and even reacts to workplace violence and aggression towards them. The qualities of the professional nurse and their background can determine how the human behavior from the patient is viewed and can lead to de-escalation or escalation of violent situations. The behavior of the patient can include cooperation, calmness, anxiety, aggression, or anger. Behaviors of aggression, anger, frustration, and acts of intimidation when patients are experiencing an illness can exacerbate stressful situations which can turn violent.
