Research Abstract |
This study investigated the incidence of patients' violence toward healthcare workers and its psychological influences. We collected complete answers from 953 doctors, 6987 nurses, 1663 nursing-support workers, and 2254 clerks for analysis. Prevalence of violence in their career was about 60%, and that in previous 12 months was about 20% among doctors and nurses. Some of healthcare workers with an experience of violence (9.4% of doctors, 7.4% of nurses, 8.6% of nursing-support workers) exceeded the cut off score of IES-R-J (25 point) set for screening PTSD.
