A major cause of violence is the provider-patient ratio. There are no quotas for how many patients a #healthcare worker can see in a day.
This contributes to a stressful atmosphere in which reactive #violence can occur.

A cause for violence against #community health workers (such as #polio teams) was misconceptions - such as about polio #vaccinations and #familyplanning.
We must have education, not ignorance.

The #healthcare worker cadres that face the most violence?
- Security guards
- Nurses
- Ambulance workers
These are the people that keep us safe and respond to emergencies.
If they are unsafe, how will their patients receive the care they need?
#BharosaKarein #HCiD
On all indicators, #healthcare workers who received interventions such as communication skills and de-escalation training fared better than those left without the tools & training to protect themselves.
#HCiD #BharosaKarein #violence
