Intervention to Decrease Perception of Horizontal Violence in Military Nursing
Abstract
Horizontal violence (HV) behaviors within the nursing work environment can lead to negative psychological and physical outcomes for nurses, decreased job satisfaction, intention to leave and poor patient outcomes. The actual occurrence of HV within the hierarchical military health care work environment as well as effective interventions to alleviate any HV behaviors, however, have not been established. The purpose of this study is to further develop this line of research by describing the prevalence of HV in the military nursing work environment and determining the effectiveness of an intervention to minimize HV. This study will use an anonymous 54-item electronic questionnaire to describe the perception of HV before and after an educational intervention.
