Staff Safety Solutions to Fight Workplace Violence

Workplace violence against caregivers is not a matter of if, but when.

This dark shadow puts the entire healthcare ecosystem at risk. Nurses are afraid to go to work, jeopardizing their ability to provide quality patient care. Healthcare systems feel the repercussions in turnover costs and limited care abilities, with the ultimate consequence of lower patient satisfaction.

Enough is enough.
