  | Emergency room violence growing concern for nurses Emergency room violence growing concern for nurses:"Charlene Richardson has been bitten, kicked and punched by patients during 13 years as an emergency room nurse. She knew the job could get rough. But one night in March 2003, Richardson said, the abuse went too far. A drunken, 50-year-old Salem man was brought to Beverly Hospital for treatment. As Richardson helped him get ready to leave, he lunged at her, grabbed her crotch and tore through her hospital scrubs. He refused to let go." http://www.ecnnews.com/cgi-bin/04/s/sstory.pl?fn-ervio2 Yet another reason why nurses are leaving the bedside? Andrew Lopez, RN http://www.4nursing.com |
