Mercyhealth Hospital and Trauma Center - Janesville
Mercyhealth developed a targeted documentation tool to empower bedside staff to accurately record episodes of patient violence within the medical record. Alongside this, they implemented a violence risk screening tool embedded with meaningful interventions aimed at proactively identifying high-risk patients. This initiative supports staff safety, enhances leadership and security involvement, and fosters a culture where safety is a top priority. By improving reporting practices, we aim to reduce incidents of workplace violence and better protect our healthcare teams.
