Recent research by HCPro, Inc., revealed some alarming statistics about the presence of hostility in healthcare environments:

  • 97% of nurses said they have witnessed horizontal violence in their careers
  • 76% of nurses said they have been a target of horizontal violence in their careers
  • 80% of nurses said poor nurse-physician collaboration brought stress to the workplace

As a nursing leader, the opportunity to change these statistics lies in your hands. Isn't it time to start healing the wounds of the industry?
