Fifty-six percent of nurses report experiencing burnout, 64% attribute feelings of stress to their job, and 39% are considering an exit from their role within the next six months — that's according to the American Nurses Foundation’s fourth annual survey of #nurse wellness published Nov. 7. Of particular interest is the fact that approximately 43% of the responses touched on some form of #workplaceviolence. This is an issue we really must focus on, as our caregivers are experiencing burnout and leaving the healthcare sector. If not addressed, this will have a lasting affect on the quality of healthcare our communities receive. #EndNurseAbuse #patientgeneratedviolence International Association for Healthcare Security and Safety (IAHSS) ASIS International
