Workplace violence against nurses is a pervasive issue with significant implications for both individual nurses and healthcare organizations. This abstract explores strategies for preventing and managing workplace violence against nurses. It examines the various forms of violence experienced by nurses, including physical, verbal, and psychological abuse, and identifies key factors contributing to the prevalence of violence in healthcare settings. Additionally, the abstract discusses proactive measures that healthcare organizations can implement to address workplace violence, such as establishing clear policies and protocols, providing comprehensive training programs, and fostering a supportive work environment. Furthermore, it emphasizes the importance of robust reporting mechanisms and effective incident management procedures in responding to and mitigating the impacts of workplace violence. By prioritizing prevention and management efforts, healthcare organizations can create safer work environments for nurses and ensure the delivery of high-quality care to patients.
