WEBINAR DETAILS
The first thing that comes to mind for most people at
the mention of workplace violence is an active shooter situation. However, the
issue of workplace violence is much broader than this one type of extreme
incident.
Most cases
are verbal or physical attacks that rarely involve a weapon. A National
Institute for Occupational Safety and Health study in 2007 indicated that 20%
of home health aides reported verbal abuse in the past year and 5% reported
threats of violence. It is also believed that many threats or violent acts go
unreported.
This webinar will define workplace violence and delve into the
impact of aggression and violent threats on employees. It will also address the
agency’s role in reducing workplace violence, and why employees need to report it.
THIS WEBINAR WILL BENEFIT THE FOLLOWING AGENCIES:
- Hospice
- Home Health
- Home Care

WHO SHOULD ATTEND?
This informative session
is designed for senior leadership, QAPI personnel, clinical managers, and clinicians.
