This toolkit draws on the Vanderbilt Model of Professional Behaviour (Hickson et al., 2007) and Professor Michael West’s (2017) research on compassionate leadership and the function of teams to guide organisations to a new way of thinking, focus for action and the crucial link back to improved patient care.

Workplace Violence Prevention Toolkit, created by WeRPN, with support from the Ministry of Health and Long Term Care, was designed to support nurse’s knowledge and confidence in addressing workplace violence and harassment in their workplace. The toolkit contains 10 sections (Intro, Overview and 8 modules) and Workplace Violence Prevention Quiz is available after these are viewed.
