Abstract
The Safety for All Campaign hosted a webinar to present findings from a survey on violence and aggression sustained by nursing and midwifery students in a UK university.
The webinar took place on Thursday 23rd May with over 50 attendees.
The survey was conducted by the University of Plymouth and asked 37 questions to a sample of nursing students. The results of the survey highlight some worrying trends and in this webinar attendees will have the opportunity to find out what the concerning statistics were and how they should be addressed.
The webinar was presented by Dr Kevin Hambridge, Lecturer in Adult Nursing (Education), Francis Thompson, Associate Professor in Mental Health Nursing (Education) and Dr Matt Carey, Associate Professor in Child Health Nursing – Acute Care, all from the University of Plymouth.
The data presented highlighted worrying trends of verbal violence or aggression, physical violence and sexual violence towards students. The responses also highlighted a culture of acceptance among students who have been programmed to see violence at work as part of the job.
There was a detailed Q&A session following the presentation in which attendees asked questions about prevention, protection and collaboration.
