Violence Inoculation for Healthcare Professionals
Violence Inoculation for Healthcare Professionals
Healthcare workers experience extreme levels of violence. In fact, non-lethal assaults on nurses, technicians and physicians lead virtually every other career, including law enforcement and other widely presumed "dangerous" occupations.
Not unique to the U.S. the United Kingdom or Canada, it is truly a global problem.
Violence Inoculation for Healthcare Professionals provides awareness of the problem, its causes, and how healthcare staff can maintain a safe environment for themselves and their patients.
The course is video based and takes approximately 2.5 hours to complete
Each video lecture duration is approximately 2-15 minutes in duration.
In addition to the lectures, resources include an occasional .PDF reading assignment or a visit to an external internet link.
