Massachusetts hospital nurses have developed violence-prevention protocols
Massachusetts hospital nurses have developed violence-prevention protocols that can help reduce violence, according to an article on the Fierce Network website.
The nurses collaborated with the Massachusetts Nurses Association (MNA) in the 1990s to develop a prevention plan.
MNA eventually introduced stronger contract wording that protected against workplace violence specifically.
Provisions included ID badges that only identify nurses by their title and first names.
