• From Workplace Violence Victims ... to Activists
• Three career nurses form grass-roots organization to stop assaults on healthcare workers. Meet the founders of Stop Healthcare Violence Sheila Wilson, RN, MPH; Sheryl Williams, RN, BSN; and Elizabeth McTomney, RN site link
  • "Imagine going to work like it is any other day," says ER nurse and Stop Healthcare Violence co-founder and advocate Sheila Wilson, RN, MPH. "You never think or suspect you will be unsafe in any way, let alone assaulted."
  • Wilson and her coworkers have discovered they are not so lucky. "In the workplace we have been slapped, violently jumped on from behind, spit on and insulted with the most contemptible words imaginable. We have seen colleagues knocked unconscious and severely injured." Wilson asks, "Is this part of our job as healthcare workers? Can we go anywhere else and spit on or hit someone and get away with it? Is this acceptable treatment of a caregiver who is also a wife, mother, daughter, sister, husband, father, son, brother or friend?" Wilson and her organization's colleagues fervently reply with a resounding, "No."
  • According to the FBI, workplace violence has gained recognition as a distinct category of violent crime that requires specific responses from employers, law enforcement and the community. In response to this epidemic, Sheila Wilson, along with colleagues Sheryl Williams, RN, BSN, and Elizabeth McTomney, RN, founded Stop Healthcare Violence to become change agents against workplace violence. Affectionately nicknamed "The Nurses," the three work tirelessly to educate employees and employers on the reality of this rampant pandemic, sending the clear message that being unsafe in the workplace is not and should never be acceptable. They spend countless hours educating healthcare professionals, administrators and Congress that ensuring job safety and security should be paramount.
  • Please tune in and find out how Sheila and her two colleagues have taken it upon themselves to ensure safety in the workplace, and why it is something that concerns everyone.
