Workplace Violence Prevention

Are you interested in stopping the toxic effects of healthcare workplace violence?

Did you know…

• • Anesthesiology faculty had the LARGEST proportions of reported harassment experiences in the past 12 months (both men: 21.3% and women: 52.6%)
    – AAMC Report 2022

• • 71.6 % of perioperative survey respondents (anesthesiologists, surgeons, CRNAs, CAAs, PACU RNs, OR RNs) report experiencing non-physical violence
    – APSF Stoelting Conference 2021, The Joint Commission Journal for Patient Safety and Quality, Aug 2024

APSF is responding to the call to action to eliminate workplace violence.
We have created video-triggered workshop materials and tools designed to increase awareness, take perspective and stimulate conversation on responses within your workplace. The tools are ideal for integration into staff meetings, grand rounds, in-service training, and existing workplace violence curricula.

Please continue to return to this website as we add resources and use-case examples. Together we can eliminate workplace violence.
