How Can Hospitals Ensure the Safety of Nursing Staff?
Hospitals can adopt several measures to ensure the safety of their nursing staff:
Implementing ergonomic practices like using lifting equipment to prevent musculoskeletal injuries. Providing regular training programs on the use of personal protective equipment (PPE) and handling hazardous materials. Establishing violence prevention protocols and security measures to protect against workplace violence. Offering counseling services and mental health support to manage emotional and psychological stress. Ensuring adequate staffing levels to prevent burnout and overwork.
