One of the primary dangers of nursing in the context of violence against patients is the risk of physical harm to the healthcare providers themselves. #nurses who are caring for patients who exhibit violent behavior are at risk of being physically assaulted, injured or even killed. I have worked with so many nurses with horrible stories just like Chelsea Mora who was punched by a patient while trying to check his patient’s vital signs. My friend Rose who was violently beat up by a patient who was mentally ill. But despite these scary moments in our lives we deeply love being a nurse. The only thing we hope is someday there will be more protections for all healthcare providers against violent patients. #healthcareagaintsviolence

A patient punched me in my eye. Thanks to my good reflexes, he could only knocked my glasses off. Then all the nurses on the floor rushed to his room and yelled at this guy! We, nurses, take care of each other!

As a nurse myself, physical, verbal and emotional abuse is a norm in this career. Very sad but true. Only nurses would understand what we endure especially bedside RN’s.

They should make assaulting medical professionals a federal offense! I work in jails and the medical staff constantly get assaulted, threatened, sued at! These are patients who are in jail for charged crimes..but don't let fool you...almost all of them were no law abiding citizens! They sure acted like criminals while in jail, just imagine when they were outside...inmate advocates of course painted them in a very different light! Again, don't be fooled!

Negligent is not violence! I am sure if you wanted you and your lawyer could sue the hospital and everyone there! Your lawyer is already the attention!
