Workplace Violence and Incivility in Nursing.docx

Description

Nurses continuously strive to bring holistic, competent, as well as secure care to their respective patients. Nevertheless, in case the safety and well-being of the nurses are either threatened or compromised, it becomes cumbersome for the nurses to work effectively and efficiently. Thus, the American Nurses Association (ANA) advocates that each nursing professional ought to work within a healthy work environment that is free of abusive behavior such as incivility and violence. Workplace violence and incivility within health care have emerged as significant safety issues over the previous decade. Workplace violence, whether from people outside or in an organization, has been depicted to have adverse effects, including escalated job stress, decreased productive work time, reduced morale, escalated staff turnover, as well the loss of trust within the organization and its existing management (Hill, 2014).

Conversely, Workplace incivility is considered to be a significant problem within the healthcare centers that are disturbing not solely underlying clinicians enduring the negative behaviors but also the care that is typically delivered under the shadow of incivility. Incivility is defined as the discourteous and ill-mannered that is conspicuously revealing the non-existence of respect for other people. People who encounter incivility may suffer many adverse behavioral, psychological, and somatic effects. Moreover, threatening as well as disruptive actions can lead to medical mistakes, a decrease in patient satisfaction, as well an escalation of the cost of care. Nurses working within different hospitals and other healthcare facilities usually are disproportionally high risk for physical violence due to the very nature of their job. In a bid to maintain personal safety as well as an environment free from the potential of physical abuse, nurses ought to be alert to the signs of trouble (Griffin & Clark, 2014).
