Topics/Call fo Papers

Overview: Bullying is an epidemic in healthcare and appears to be increasing. Bullying, belittling and backstabbing are so common in healthcare that Joint Commission on Accreditation on healthcare issued new regulations on reporting, disciplining and preventing bullying situations. Research has shown that a healthcare workplace with intimidating and disruptive behavior can foster medical errors, contribute to poor patient satisfaction, increase the cost of care and cause qualified professionals to seek new positions in a more positive environment. Bullying costs millions with high turnover, low productivity and poor morale.
Why should you attend: There is legislation pending in most states for new guidelines on bullying in the workplace. Employers and managers in healthcare will need to have clear policies, guidelines and training programs in place to deal with workplace incivility or face possible legal consequences. Bullying will now be treated as a form of discrimination with severe penalties for employers. According to a study of U.S. workers, 41% reported experiencing psychological aggression at work in the last year. Workplace incivility in healthcare is a major factor in nurse retention and patient satisfaction.
