Navigating the Work Environment: Embracing Zero Tolerance for Bullying

“Sticks and stones might break my bones, but words can never hurt me.”  This nursery rhyme couldn’t be further from the truth.  Repeated exposure to negative, disruptive behavior can have a significant impact on you, your colleagues and your patients.  What leads to such behavior in the health care environment?  Join us for an informative presentation that will help us all better understand, address and prevent bullying, lateral and horizontal violence in the healthcare environment.  After the presentation, there will be time to share your thoughts and questions.
