- Cultivating a Healthy Workforce by Addressing Bullying and Incivility: Strategies for Healthcare Leaders
Your Role in Reducing Incivility in Your Team to Increase Retention and Improve Patient Outcomes
Bullying leaves nasty fingerprints on individuals, healthcare organizations, the nursing profession, and patients. Its mark is damaging and long lasting. Leaders, therefore, have a responsibility to do their part to stop the cycle of bullying and incivility.

- 80% lost work time worrying about the incident
- 66% said their performance declined
