The nursing organisation workplace has been identified as one in which workplace bullying occurs quite frequently.[1][2] It is thought that relational aggression (psychological aspects of bullying such as gossipping and intimidation) are relevant. Relational aggression has been studied amongst girls but not so much amongst adult women.[3][4]
Various bullying permutations are possible, such as:
- doctor or management bullying a nurse
- nurse bullying another nurse
- nurse bullying a patient
- patient bullying a nurse.
Bullying acts
Lewis identifies the following bullying acts in UK nursing:[5]
Such acts are frequently insidious, continuing over periods of time that may be years. Bullies are often serial bullies. The bully is invariably aware of the damage they are doing. They undertake such actions basically to gain control and power.
Incivility
Laschinger, Leiter, Day, and Gilin found that among 612 staff nurses, 67.5% had experienced incivility from their supervisors and 77.6% had experienced incivility from their coworkers.[6]
Bullying of nurses by managers
In 2003 the Community Practitioners' and Health Visitors' Association in the UK carried out a survey showing that half of health visitors, school nurses and community nurses working in the National Health Service (NHS) have been bullied by their managers. One in three of the 563 people questioned said the bullying was so bad they had to take time off work. Constant criticism and humiliation were the most common complaints. Others said they were shouted at or marginalised.[7]
Nurse bullying inventory
In order to further investigate and understand the impact of workplace bullying on the nursing work environment, an inventory was developed to address specific workplace bullying constructs within the nursing context.[1]
Bullying
Horizontal Violence [8] is often than same term used when referring to bullying in Nursing. This term describes the appalling behavior shown by colleagues in the nursing field. Such demeaning behavior makes the work place stressful and unpleasant. AlexisBPorter (talk)
Remedial action
Some health organisations are seeking to educate staff and health care team members on how to improve social interactions, proper business etiquette, and foster positive people skills in the work environment.[9][10][11]
