abstract="AIM: To explore the prevalence of workplace violence among nurses who care for older people and its association with working stress, job satisfaction and quality of care in Jordan. <br><br>DESIGN: A cross-sectional design was used. <br><br>METHODS: A cluster random sampling was used to select three public hospitals, three private hospitals and 17 healthcare centres in Amman, Jordan. The researcher used a convenience sampling method to select 485 nurses. Data were collected between 2015-2016. <br><br>RESULTS: Almost 60% of the participants have been victims of violence at the workplace during the past year. Nurses who consider violence a problem at work have high levels of working stress (<i>p </i>< .01) as well as lower levels of quality of care (<i>p </i>< .01) and job satisfaction (<i>p </i>< .001).<br><br>© 2019 The Authors.
