Nurses' perceptions of the factors which cause violence and aggression in the emergency department: A qualitative study
2014, International Emergency NursingCitation Excerpt :Nurses are more likely than other health care professionals to be involved in aggressive incidents with patients and relatives in the ED. Much of the research undertaken on this topic is quantitative in nature and examines prevalence and prediction of violence (Rose, 1997;Alameddine et al., 2011; Esmaeilpour et al., 2011; Talas et al., 2011; Magnavita and Heponiemi, 2012). However, qualitative exploration of this phenomenon is increasing (Pich et al., 2011; Lau et al., 2012).

2013, International Emergency NursingCitation Excerpt :The International Council of Nurses has reported that the majority of nurses (72%) globally do not feel safe at work, while a survey of American nurses put this figure at upwards of 80% (ANA, 2001). An Irish study found that 91% of nurses were worried about being physically assaulted while at work (Rose, 1997). This is especially significant when considering that Occupational Health and Safety legislation and guidelines exist in most countries to protect the health, safety and welfare of workers.
