We dive into violence in nursing from simulation labs to courtrooms and then pivot to the federal rollback of nursing home staffing rules. We end with a frank look at ANA membership and why excluding LPNs weakens nursing’s voice.
• UNC simulation tackles verbal abuse, escalation, and bullying
• Eight in ten nurses report workplace violence in the past year
• Classroom actors and debriefs build real de‑escalation skills
• Arkansas felony case underscores accountability for assaults
• CMS staffing rule rollback risks unsafe ratios in long‑term care
• Profit pressures versus patient safety and humane workloads
• Families want 24/7 RN coverage and reliable care hours
• Excluding LPNs from ANA fractures advocacy and unity
If you are an instructor or in nursing school, let us know in the comments: do you want workplace violence simulations in your program
