The Weight of Scrubs: Nurses and the Trauma of Violence

By SHIREEN

Moman et al. (2020) revealed that in a study conducted by the United States Veterans Health Administration, through distributing surveys at a pain management conference, providers reported that 41% of assaults on healthcare workers occur in inpatient psychiatric units, yet 59% of assaults occur elsewhere within healthcare institutions. Kiymaz and Ko (2023) used a mixed-methods study to research WPV among emergency department (ED) nurses and how WPV correlated to occupational commitment and intention to resign. Kiymaz and Ko determined that emotional commitment to the nursing profession might decrease, and nurses' intention to resign may rise as exposure to aggression and violence increases.
