#Emergency Department #Nurse #Verbally #Abused, #Physician History Well Documented #nurseup #abuse #nursefriendly:” Official tolerance for verbal abuse and sexual harassment is approaching zero. It is clear that both are still prevalent in healthcare settings today. Enforcing and reporting instances of abuse are critical to an end being put to the situation. In this case, a physician had a history of verbal abuse in the facility involved. It was the documentation of previous events that made formal action and administration of a suspension feasible. The physician berated the nurse for the way in which one of his patients was being handled. He accused the nurse of ”not doing her job” and giving the patient substandard care.
