TY - JOUR PY - 2023// TI - Workplace violence in health care: utilization of protection, prevention, and planning strategies JO - Journal of Radiology Nursing A1 - Tilley, Lesley A1 - Mistretta, Jill A1 - Barrett, Coletta A1 - Billingsley, Luanne SP - 186 EP - 190 VL - 42 IS - 2 N2 - Workplace violence is a concern. This article reviews workplace violence definitions, regulatory body guidance, and healthcare policy. Key findings of the literature indicate that nurses are underreporting incidents, there are gender differences associated with violent acts, and all areas of nursing and healthcare are impacted. Best practice tools, including workplace violence assessments, toolkits, and team member education, are provided to develop strategic workplace violence prevention plans to reduce violent acts.
