Introduction Workplace violence can be interpreted as brutal acts aimed toward persons at work or on duty. Workplace violence is any corporeal assault, intimidating behaviour, or verbalized abuse occurring in the work setting. A work setting is any place, either permanent or temporary, where employees perform work-related duties. Workplace violence spans widely from offensive to threatening language homicide. Before anything else, however, we must consider why these events occur in the first place and how the nurse manager plays a part in dealing with such violence.
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.
