Who Should Take This Course

Healthcare workers are four times more likely to be victims of workplace violence than employees in any other industry. This course is designed for all clinical and non-clinical staff who may encounter patients, visitors, or colleagues in distress — including nurses, physicians, medical assistants, home health aides, social workers, emergency department staff, and long-term care workers.

The Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) recognizes workplace violence as a serious occupational hazard and requires employers to provide a workplace free from recognized hazards under the General Duty Clause. This training fulfills employer-mandated annual training requirements and helps organizations build a culture of safety.
