I spoke to abc730 about violence against nurses in Australia. Tune in tonight at 7:30 to hear what I (and other experts) have to say about this important issue.

The strike by HSU staff showed how desperate the situation of violence against healthcare staff in NSW is. Increased security is definitely part of the solution - here are my thoughts on what else can help. UTS Health NSW Nurses & Midwives HSU NSW theconversation.com/beefing-up-sec…

as a student leader I have been approached by students bullied, downtrodden, traumatised on placements where no support is available or fear of being failed prevents them reaching out. glad Dr Samantha Jakimowicz at UTS Health are working to promote student resilience! #NNF2019 @acn_tweet

We need to support our nursing students develop resilience and become the best RNs they can be @acn_tweet #NNF2019 UTS Health Dr Samantha Jakimowicz Tracy Levett-Jones

Falls happen for our paediatric patients too. Including the children in the research is a powerful thing #NNF2019 @acn_tweet UTS Health

Something wrong when the attacker is spared jail because of the catastrophic effects this might have on him - despite him attacking and causing catastrophic effects to 2 paramedics just doing their job UTS Health smh.com.au/national/victo…

We're here to care for you in your time of need. Aggression is never okay. Please be considerate and respectful to hospital and ambulance staff so they can continue to do an amazing job.

What unsafe registered nurse staffing looks like (from tweets this week) Un-coordinated care Deterioration not seen/acted upon Deconditioned patients Poor communication Symptoms not eased Worries not addressed Call bells unanswered Wounds not dressed Drug errors #ValueNursing

Have a say to support nurses. ACN views domestic & family violence as unacceptable under any circumstances. Access and equity to support and care for those affected should be provided as a basic human right. Dr Jacqui Pich Leesa Hooker

This week is your last chance to complete the ACN Nurses and Violence Taskforce survey. The 15 minute survey allows nurses to share their experiences with domestic and family violence to provide resources to support nurses and colleagues. acn.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_0V…
