Title Risk assessment of violence to others: Time for action Type Journal Article
Year 2002 Publication (down) Nursing Praxis in New Zealand Abbreviated Journal
Volume 18 Issue 1 Pages 36-43
Keywords Mental health; Workplace violence; Risk management; Nursing; Nurse-patient relations; Psychiatric nursing
Abstract The author performs a literature search on the topics of risk assessment, dangerousness, aggression, and violence in order to determine an evidence-based approach to risk assessment of patient violence towards others. This is set in the context of possible expansion in the scope of practice of mental health nurses, and the prevalence of nurses being assaulted by patients. In the absence of reliable and valid nursing risk assessment measures, the approach suggested here focuses on the use of observation skills to detect behaviour antecedent to physical assault, and the ability to adapt evidence to specific clinical settings.
