Using Simulation Training to Promote Nurses' Effective Handling of Workplace Violence: A Quasi-Experimental Study.


ABSTRACT: Background: Workplace violence in the health care sector has become a growing global problem. Research has shown that although caregivers comprise a high-risk group exposed to workplace violence, most of them lacked the skills and countermeasures against workplace violence. Therefore, through a quasi-experimental design, this study aimed to investigate the effectiveness of situational simulation training on the nursing staffs' concept and self-confidence in coping with workplace violence. Methods: Workplace violence simulation trainings were applied based on the systematic literature review and the conclusions from focus group interviews with nursing staff. Data were obtained from structured questionnaires including: (1) baseline characteristics; (2) perception of aggression scale (POAS); and (3) confidence in coping with patient aggression. Results: The results revealed that training course intervention significantly improved the nursing staffs' self-perception and confidence against workplace violence (p < 0.001). Conclusions: The "simulation education on workplace violence training" as the intervention significantly improved the workplace violence perception and confidence among nursing staffs in coping with aggression events.
